Chair Holders from Ross: $12.99 each
I decided not to use a poem (although Aimee114 shared a really great one in the comments if anyone needs one for your basket)...and I kept it simple for lack of space since I am currently on a stamp frenzy...ha! I placed black felt (29 cents from Michaels) in the bottom so the items would stay put and the sign is a piece of wood that I painted white, stamped with the saying and done!

aimee114 | Winnipeg, MB, Canada | 03/19/2010 These are the absolute most ADORABLE items I've ever seen in the history of WBC lol ... these are just too cute!
I have a really cute poem to go with these if you're interested?!?!
So happy you're here to share in our special day!!!
But should something happen to go astray,
Please help yourself to the contents within,
Hair spray (or Wet wipe), hand lotion, gum and even aspirin,
Use only what you need and leave the rest,
It may be useful to another guest.
So repair the damage that may have been done,
Then hurry on back and join the fun!!!
Compliments of the Newlyweds
Please make sure to post some pictures of the final trial of what they'll look like when they're done and ready for the wedding day! Oh, and just a little suggestion - maybe add a cute shallow box or small shallow basket to contains your items in. By the way did I say these are AWESOME?!?!?!?!

nidhal | Los angeles, CA, United states | 03/19/2010 Thanks everyone! Aimee114...thanks for the great little poem!! And yes, you are right about the suggestion...I was thinking of putting somehting in the bottom of the basket cause all of the items are falling through :)
Thanks again!
Can you tell me what "Ross" is...these baskets would be PERFECT for my wedding decor seeing as they fit the vintage theme! I live in Wisconsin and would love to know how to purchase these.
