Ever since we decided we were moving, I’ve been dreaming about sending out moving announcements once we had a new address. Well now it’s decision time! Here are some of my favorite options from etsy, but there are SO many. I just typed in “moving announcement” in the search bar (for handmade items), and got like 15 pages!

Many of the cards are customized (aka, you give your new info, they type it in, but the template stays generally the same), or they are fill-in. I tried to indicate which, and included the costs.

1. Suburban Street. $15 for customized design. Print yourself or printing options available.

2. Dollhouse . $12 for twelve customized cards plus envelopes.

3. We’re Moving! $6.95 for eight fill-in cards and envelopes.

4. Binary Robot (Ryan loves these, computer geek that he is). $14.75 for ten fill-in postcards.

    I’m digging the bubblewrap ones…

    I made some a few years ago using some cream tags (bought at the Office Supply store for next to nothing) and some old keys (bought off ebay). I used an old typewriter font (1942 Report font) to type in my new information and then attached the key. So super easy and people seemed to really like them. I just had to pay a little extra for mailing, but really not that much. You could totally do something simple like that – you’re very crafty!

    It looks like everybody has a different opinion. It’s hard to choose but I like the little red door one the best. It’s simple and nice.

    I agree with the red door one, i LOVE houses with red doors! SO cute! And simple. Although, gotta love the robot one too-reminds me of Flight of the Conchords!

    The owls, of course! Knew the owls would pop up somewhere. I also really love the red door one, though. And #7. And, well, them all. How’s that for decisions?
