I love these invitations (http://www.pinterest.com/pin/156570524520452344/), but I’m having trouble finding it somewhere to have it done. Have you seen/done this?

I read that as yam wrapped invites, which definitely caught my interest! I would get some paper you like, and some yarn, and just see what happens. It might be easier than you think…or harder. But you won’t know till you try!

We did something similar actually, but only wrapped the invite like 3 times. We used baker’s twine! Actually, we showed our invitation designer our inspiration picture and she did it for no extra cost! I wish I had a picture with me but I don’t. 🙁 it’s totally doable tho! We could’ve done it ourselves, but I didn’t want to deal with wrapping/tying them all. I think baker’s twine comes in tons of colors (we chose white and brown to match our white Kraft paper invitations) and I’ve also seen really cute inspiration where they had little heart cut outs strung onto the twine.

I had a quick look on Etsy and it looks like there are a lot of similar options on there. I think you will have better luck if you use twine as your search term. Baker’s twine comes in any number of colors, and is much cheaper than yarn so I think it’s more likely what would be used on invitations like this.
