Our Wedding: Cootie Catchers!

Written by Sara on February 16, 2010 – 9:00 am -

Good Tuesday morning, readers! Today I’m showcasing another DIY project that I’ve finished for our wedding this July – cootie catcher favors!

I originally saw this project on Vintage Glam Weddings, a site of vintage goodness that’s now under the moniker of Ruffled (which, if you haven’t checked it out, shame on you!). I always used to play with these when I was in grade school, and I felt like it including these little lovelies would be a fun throwback to my childhood!

As a twist on the traditional cootie catcher, instead of using numbers and colors, my groom and I came up with a few facts of trivia about us as a couple and us as individuals. To keep this project eco-friendly, we plan to print these on recycled paper.

Here’s the finished product:
