Hi! Our little guy is due in 39 days(!!)and I am trying to pick out a cute birth announcement. Where did you order yours? My mom suggested Walgreen's or SnapFish, but I have seen iffy results (blurry...) from them. I have seen cute ones at diferent Galleria stores, but I assume they are pricey. Ideas?
I have seen Vista Print ones that are cute (www.vistaprint.com). Another one is www.tinyprints.com, but they may be a little more expensive.
If you're looking for cost and time efficiency, we did ours online at Walmart. We've always developed our pictures through their website, so we decided to do our birth announcement that way too. We were way too tired after our little guy was born to make fancy homemade announcements! Walmart had some cute announcement designs, they were very affordable, and we were happy with the quality of the picture.
If you are more of a do it yourself kind of person. I have seen very cute birth announcements from the Paper Depot over in North Minneapolis. Next to the Famers Market in Minneapolis. I have also seen some cute ideas at Michaels Craft stores. But, by far the Paper Depot in North Minneapolis next to the Farmers Market in Minneapolis was the best.
I'm trying to get something pulled together too. My daughter was born July 20.
A friend of my friend runs her own business A Milestone Paper Company. Her web site is www.amilestonepaperco.com.
I've also seen some cute stuff online http://www.tinyprints.com/shop/birth_announcements.htm
And with my first child I had OK results from PROEX.
Good luck!
Hi
My friend makes birth announcements and they are truly amazing, she is so creative. She has a website www.tksdesigns.typepad.com which you can check out. I know she is not expensive and is just trying to get her business going.
Hope this helps
