After a month of silence, I'm back! I've been documenting our wedding DIYs and can't wait to share them! I figured I could share with you Aaron and I's process of making our invitations. Today I'll post about edge painting. We loosely followed
this tutorial with a little spin of our own. Thank goodness it worked out for us! The hardest part was lining up the paper, Aaron was such a rockstar at it!

| We used an acrylic based yellow paint. The tutorial said it was best to use a bright color. |

| Aaron lining up the paper... |
 |
| He's really cute isn't he? ;) |
 |
| Adding protective pages on top |
 |
| Clamping the paper together. |
 |
| Fully clamped and painted. |
 |
| Finished product! |
It wasn't as difficult as I was expecting. The only thing that would have made our experience easier would have been if the paper was cut exactly perfect. Next up... the letterpress!
Very clever & cool, guys!
