gift card box ideas?

[tiffanytwisted]

I am in need of gift card box ideas. I really haven''t liked anything I''ve seen so far. I am not crazy about the satin covered bow ones and I sort of feel like everyone I know has had the birdcage. My wedding is in May. Any ideas?????

I''ve seen pretty cool picture ones. You take 4 picture frames with pictures of you and your FI and create a box out of it. There are detailed instructions on the knot boards if you search for it. I like the card boxes that look like a tiered cake.

Robbie, I just searched The Knot, and I can''t seem to find anything other than the cardboard looking mailbox card holder that they are selling. If you can easily find the plans for the picture frame one, would you post it? Thanks.

It''s not a box, but this is what we''re using. We bought it at Michael''s for $10. That''s a regular sized greeting card, to give you some perspective as to size.
