Door Hanger Welcome Packets for Guests

What great way to welcome your out-of-town guests and introduce them to your wedding city! Martha Stewart Weddings came up with this simple and cute way to provide your guests with an itinerary of events, a map of the city, and things to do in their spare time.


The hanging packets are so easy to make! All you need are 6 items and you're all set:

legal-size (8.5x14 inches) card stock
ruler
craft knife
2.5 inch circle craft punch
bone folder
round label stickers

Directions:
1. Print the word "Welcome" twice across the top of the legal-size sheet of card stock (for an even nicer look, have your calligrapher script it)
2. With a rule and craft knife, cut the card stock in half, lengthwise
3. Punch a hole on the bottom of each piece of paper with a 2.5 inch circle punch (picture shown below)
4. With a bone folder, crease each card-stock strip 4 inches from the top, and fold to form a pocket
5. Fasten sides with round label stickers
6. Place all your information in your packet

Your guests will then be fully informed of everything going on!
