Abstract

See full text

An apparatus that is convertible between a social expression, such as a wedding invitation, and a decorative item, such as a votive candle holder. As a social expression, the apparatus is a flat, metal sheet which includes information pertaining to a social event that can be placed in an envelope and mailed to a recipient. Once the recipient receives the social expressions piece and the information regarding the social event is conveyed, the recipient can convert the social expression into a decorative item by folding along one or more folding lines. By converting the social expression into a decorative item, the apparatus has a greatly extended life.
