A friend of mine is getting ready to start the envelope system (by Dave Ramsey).
And I had seen this tutorial online and wanted to try it.
You can guess what happened next:


The tutorial used snaps, but snaps and I do not get along. So I added a fabric-covered button on the front and used a hair band for the elastic that goes around the button.It took about an hour, including contemplation time on how to get by without using snaps!
Sarah- you are making mine look bad. Yours is beautiful. I love the choice of fabric and I love the button do-hicki! Thanks for the link and seriously...it is amazing. Good luck to your friend starting Dave Ramsey. I'M DEBT FREEEEEE!
ReplyDeleteOkay, so are you selling these things? I want one in that exact print!
ReplyDeleteYes, are you interested in selling these??
ReplyDeleteI love the look of your envelope system. Mine is all torn and worn out to where my money is falling out. Are you selling these? If so, please let me know.

Hi! I love this! I'm trying to get started with the envelope system, but want to have a pretty wallet before I jump on in. Vain, I know, but I also know that I will likely lose a bunch of paper envelopes or throw them out. Do you have a tutorial on this? I tried viewing the tutorial you linked up to, but it isn't available anymore. ::shucks::
ReplyDeleteI just bought one on etsy from you and wanted to come here and say how much I LOVE MINE!!!!!!! you are so talented. i had the DR cash envelope system that was signed by the man himself when he came to our town a few months back. i have been using that thing for a few years now and it has seen a better day. I posted it on my facebook and all my friends are raving about it. You need to start making more because i think you have a good thing going :)
