    The Frugalista

    I have Martha Stewart taste with a Dave Ramsey budget…  Champagne dreams with beans and rice buying power…  Architectural Digest desires with IKEA funds.

    It’s not that I couldn’t spend the money… it’s just that I’m naturally frugal.

    One example, I was completely enamored by engraved invitations when my husband and I were planning our wedding. Their crisp linen paper and classic lines called to me like a sirens’ song…until I noticed the price. Nearly $15 per guest!

    Their beckoning call was immediately squelched.

    But I didn’t give up entirely. I dug and searched and made calls until I found a mail order printer that could make nearly identical invitations for a tenth of the price.

    DIY Birthday Party

    When I plan my kids’ birthday parties I long for an elaborate magazine-worthy celebration, but my desires are mostly silenced by my frugal nature.

    (I hope my kids find a college education more useful than a carousel at their second birthday party.)

    I haven’t given up on birthdays entirely, I still love elaborate parties. I simply find ways to create the custom look for a  lower price.

    Create Your Own Custom Party Invitations

    Birthday party invitations definitely set the theme for the big event, BUT custom invitation can be costly to purchase…

    Luckily, with a few free tools you can make custom party invitations yourself.

    These custom Lego Brick invitations use a camera (or camera phone), a few Lego pieces, and a desktop printer to create custom invitations that cost about  $1.50 (including envelopes).

    How to Make Lego Party Invitations

    Follow this step-by-step tutorial to make Lego Party Invitations. (If you prefer my version you can also download the free editable PDF.)

    1 – Get the Font – The sample invitation uses the free font SquareFont. Download it from dafont.com and install it on your computer. (You can now edit the free editable PDF or make your own custom design.)
