I made 50 wedding matchbooks for $10, and here's how I did it. And all you need are two things and a printer. So first, you obviously want your matches. I got this 50 set from Amazon for $6.99 and it came in a week. And then, this is where it's really important, you want to get clear vinyl sticker paper. This is the brand I got, it was $8, but there is cheaper that can make it an even 10. I think this came out to like $14 in total for me. But get the clear vinyl sticker paper because that's what's going to make it look like it was printed on there. Once you have your design in Canva, you're going to export it. Make sure it exports as a clear PNG with a transparent background. Here are my print settings. I did glossy photo paper and at best. You definitely want to do glossy because it won't smudge as it's printing. Once it prints, you'll just cut it out and you'll just stick it on there. Boom. A wedding matchbook. So easy and so cheap. Honestly, one of my favorite wedding DIYs.
