STD magnets, advice needed...

Hi Ladies!I'm trying to pick out our STD's and I'm leaning towards magnets, but can't find any I love.Where did you get yours? Are they magnets? Would you order from that site again? What, if anything, would you do differently?If you don't mind, can I see some ideas??Thank you in advance!!!!

    Hi,
    I am contemplating magnets as well. I found some I love on Wedding PaperDivas.
    But I am actually thinking about DIYing them on magnet paper (available at Staples).

    Also- I have found a lot of really cute ones on Etsy. Just search "magnet save the date" in the top. Gluck

    I made my own STD magnets. I used the free customized template on WeddingChicks.com and had them printed online on heavy cardstock  6 X 4 (postcard material) than bought magnet strips to stick to the back of them. I bought vellum envelopes on sale at paper and more . Overall it was a really inexpensive DIY project.

    </div>I made my STDs to look like lottery tickets. I got the scratch-off stickers online. Our date was 10-10-10 so it was like "match all three numbers and you'll celebrate with us." I also sent them so they'd arrive at people's homes on St. Patrick's Day, which helps explain the pot of gold theme.<div>

    I used magnetstreet.com for our Save the Dates.  We had magnets and people said they enjoyed having them on their fridges.  They were pretty inexpensive and you can upload your own pictures.  My only complain was that the design I chose the picture turned out really small, but they were still cute.

    i used pioneercolor and was really happy with mine. they have lots of different options and if you search on the internet you can usually find a promotion code for them too.
