I just bought these at michaels too, but i dont know how to print on them! Did you use a laser or inkjet printer? Which paper settings? Let me know how they turned out!
Sorry,I havent tried them yet.But my printer is a ink one.The good news about these is they give u samples to print on before u ever try to print on the magnets themselves.
Now I do plan to check out the printers manual.Not sure which setting to use yet.
Finding these out are the only thing annoying about printing/DIY-ing anything from home.
Good luck.Will be sending ours out in November or December.If u do it earliar,let me know which setting.Good luck!!
Wow what a great deal! Make sure to come back and post the finished product when you're all done!
okk i just did mine. i tried it on both an inkjet and a laser printer and they both worked! the inkject dried faster though. i just used a glossy paper setting and "best" printing quality. it was pretty easy. i added a photo on mine and the laser printer had better coloring on the photo, but the font coloring was way darker than i wanted so i ended up going with the inkjet. just becareful not to smudge them if your using an inkjet! also, you can see where they are scored in between the sheets, but its not enough to really bother me. im attaching a photo of the finished product, but i took it from my phone so its not the best quality. good luck!
Great job!! :) They look professional!
and for those of yall who are printer challenged like me - magnetstreet.com has ones they will print for you for about $1 a piece. thats what i ended up doing!
It looks great!!Thanks for sharing!Cant wait to do mine.lol
@Wonderstruck:Its a very good deal.I really wanted to do STD's but 300?!?!Come on!So I was just elated when I saw them!!
@shanly725:Oh and thanks for the warning about the slow drying ink.I probably would have ruined the first batch.:)
I am SO glad that I shared this!!! These invites arent even on the Micheals website.I looked.U will only see them if u go to the store.
Thank you guys! I felt the same about the STDs... they were just too expensive. But I used coupons from michaels and ended up doing 90 STDs for just $18. You cant pass up that deal! Plus they are cute magnets :). Im also doing the invitations from the BRIDES collection at Michaels. I hope they turn out as well. I got those on sale for $60 for 90 invitations with pocket folds! $78 TOTAL on all invitation stuff for 90 people. I couldnt be more happy :)
I got my STDs from magnetstreet.com for about 1.49 each... it wound up being about $150 for all the magnets/envelopes we needed. The quality was very good and they are easy to work with. I actually received a coupon from them for $25 off once I created an account with them so it made it even more economical.
Great Job! But if INK gets costly check out VistaPrint.com I got my 20 4x6 magnets $11.99! Quality was good! Got 25 Free Business Cards too! Vista is always having promos!
I love what you found at Michaels though!! Love that dam store!

Bees,
I was not planning to do any save the dates because of how expensive they are.The cheapest I found was over 300!So anyway I was at Michaels over a month ago and found these.
Save The Date magnets!!A package of 30 for 9.99!!We can now afford to send them!Plus I was looking for something other then a card.Pleople lose cards,etc But if u send them a magnet,they will look at it everytime they go to the fridge!I love that!
