Rockin Wedding Record Box





I'll admit up front that I can't take full credit for this idea.... I was flipping through a scrapbook magazine years ago and saw that someone had made a book and pages were record sleeves with records made of paper inside- I think they said something on the records but i'm not sure. Anyway, this idea stuck with me for a long time and I knew that some event would present itself worthy of this really cool present. Instead of a book I made a record box which ended up working out a lot better. It's much easier to get the records out and I think it's a cool thing to have on a shelf.

Each record was filled out by an attendent of the wedding. Then I had them send me pictures to make the center "label" of the record. The "records" are just thick black paper cut the same size as a full length LP. I just measured the record sleeves and the thickness of the stack of "records" and made a box out of mdf- painted it glossy black and had vinyl letters made at a local sign shop. Even though I was a year late giving it to them it turned out to be a great anniversary present :)
