If so, are you buying or making them?

I don't even remember seeing cardboxes at weddings before, but I guess they must have been there? Should have paid more attention :)

I had a cardbox made out of picture frames. We displayed our favorite engagement pics in it and it still sits in our home to display them and house certain goodies. ;)

I was going to DIY one, but then my parents found a beautiful one and bought it for us. It had a name plaque on the top and a lock with a beautiful key and tassel key chain.

I made mine ... I will post pics of it once I can stand looking at it again (the project ended up way more time consuming and involved than I anticipated)

@amanda.lynn: Thanks so much! I think it is a really elegant variation on the traditional cardbox...

I got a lot of compliments on it. And I still do because it is displayed in our home. That's what I like best about it - it wasn't just a "wedding item"... Also it is on a swivel so I can easily turn it every day to feature a different side/photo.
