So,
I have been searching high and low on the knot for this certain card box holder.  It looks like a present and it's SO CUTE!  But...I really can't justify spending 35-40 on it.  At least not for me...so...for some crazy reason last night...really really late...I just COULDN't get off the internet!  I found THE SAME BOX on CL for 10.00!!! WHOOT WHOOT!  She still has it!  She's holding it for me!   It's not the right color, but I can spray paint it!  I LOVE saving $$$!!!!  I can't wait to help another bride out when I sell all my stuff and she's all excited to get it as well!  YAY!  With out further waiting...here's my card box!!!!

What do you think?  I'm going to spray paint it silver with sparkles!

It's a card holder...kinda like a birdcage...or a satin box...it holds the cards that the guests bring.  It sits on the gift table!

Nice!  Never ever saw one like that, looks really cool.  Awesome find.
I hear ya on saving $$!  My coworker bought a decorative box from Marshalls that was exactly the same size as yours.  It was decorated already with pink peonies so it actually kinda matched.  She sliced a hole in it and put lace (not the frou frou kind at all) around the edges.  Looked great for $6.33 !!

It looks nice the way it is but I bet silver sparkles will look cool.  Post a pic after you spray it??

Of course!  I think I might just do clear sparkles/white ones.  Or silver, I'm not sure yet.  I don't think I want the WHOLE box silver...might be a bit much.  What do you think?

It looks great as is and will still be lovely whatever you do to it.  However, the idea of it all silver (I'm imagining it looking like a silver box, not silver colored paint) would be FABULOUS!

If you don't want the whole box silver, I would only do the clear or white sparkles.  Besides, it sounds like a much easier way to accomplish the look you're thinking of.  It looks like it might be difficult to get a uniform look if you try to use silver, mind you I'm no spray paint expert!
Why were you thinking of painting it silver?  Would it look too 25th anniversary-like?  Maybe sparkly white looks more "wedding"?
