Efavormart Sashes Arrived!
They're Lovely, but more Cloth Drama!







Ok girls, I received my order of Chair Sashes as shown in photo to the left. Excellent for the price! The tablecloth overlays were beautiful, BUT it's not what I ordered. I ordered 90 X 90 and they sent me 72 X 72! Auuuggghhh! I contacted them through text chat and they are very appologetic to me and took 30% off the total right now if I keep them. I'll work with it, but DOG~NA~BIT!

I'm so glad I have 45 days to get this right! Auuugghhh! I had ordered 4 silver tablecloths to go on the cake, sweetheart and our immediate family tables, just to add that extra bling to our Tiffany Theme. Here are some photos of my vision. Excuse the oversize chaircovers, displayed on my hubby's bar chairs.

Candy Buffet: Made More Favor Bags



I went on and made more of these mini shopping bags for the candy buffet this time. Why not? Dollar Tree for 12/$1.00! Printed off labels and hot glued on some ribbon.

Our Sweetheart Table Addition
~Adding Silver Silk Sashes~




Well after all the dilemma with Efavormart and my silver tablecloth overlays, 1/2 of my order will be arriving tomorrow. In between Organza or Silk Sashes, I have ordered silks to match the cloths for our sweetheart table. The silks has more of a rich texture than the lighter looking version of organza. They were $1.49/ea with the $4.95 shipping and handling that I couldn't refuse. Remember in the past blogs, I ordered the universal chair cover as well and it looks like a big pillowcase. LOL..I'm not going to have time to make the picture shown for the desired look on that day, so to make things simple...I ordered the sashes. Stay tuned to see my rating on the products tomorrow! It better be what I expected, because I feel like my 8th blog below: "Frustration Kickin In, I'm About To Turn Into An Ass!"

In Memory of...
Grandmas Punchbowl Collection: Found More Arlington Cups!



I'm really excited about finding all 30 glass cups to match my huge punchbowl, that my grandmother gave to me when she died. I've been on a mission at Goodwills, Thrifty stores for about 8 months now, because I started off with 2 glass cups. I keep finding my loose cups for .49 cents here and there. These will be displayed at the punchbowl fountain during the reception, in memory of grandma Sara.

HA! I Can't Believe It!
Guess Where I Found These Candle Votives?





I'm in love with these! Now is this Tiffany or what? This is the same exact colors that we are using for our wedding/reception!
I went by another Dollar Tree today and started doing the happy dance. I bought all the ones they had but they only had FIVE, 5, CINCO!!!! This is the perfect Tiffany color! Only one had a solid cameo or Marie Antoinette face.

I also saw some other colors in light blue, lavender and dark blue. Why they didn't have more in my color, I don't know? These will go on either the cake or buffet table.

Ask a Question
Why Even Bother About Postage Stamps?




This makes me want to grit my teeth!
Sent out R.S.V.P.'s last week with extra stamps for the R.S.V.P. envelopes. At least they are R.S.V.Ping, but not by mail with that lovely $.42 cent stamp on the return envelope! They've been calling me or hubby, R.s.v.ping that way and sending it by email, or by conversation. It's driving me nuts...Just send in the Darn R.S.V.P. cards that I've worked so hard on! Why even bother with extra stamps, if they won't mail it back? Auggghhhhh! It's really easier to keep track of the returned responses by paper than relying on hubby to remember to tell me who called!

Are you girls experiencing this kind of maddness too?

Reposting Request! Pedicure Time 4 Laughs!



A couple of my friends have asked me about this posting. I have it on my blog somewhere, but I just can't find it! So, here it is ladies....
Are you getting your toes did for your special day? What color are you going to wear on the toes, any rhinestones, designs?

I'm having a simple white pearl tone with rhinestones on the big toes. No TIPS!

What about you?

This is a funny question?
Goodwill: Silver Creamer Holder~$2.99!



Can you believe that Hubby asked me, what is wrong with a regular container of coffee creamer on the table??? AUGhhh! No he didn't!
Well, here is another sweet find for our Coffee/Tea Station table! I was browsing in the Goodwill again and found this beauty for the creamer. The picture frame will be displayed along with the frame for the coffee and hot water dispenser for the tea.

Here Is My DIY Pearl Tulle Decor!



Well, here it is! The decor for the sweetheart table and cake table. It was fun to do with the help of the glue gun. I think it's as close as possible to the inspiration picture in ivory.
As you see, I added two Faux Tiffany bracelets on each side of the pearls. This one will be displayed on the sweetheart table along with the silver satin tablecloth, that I'm eagerly waiting from Efavormart! The pearl & tulle one will go on the cake table to match the 2 tier wedding cake.
What do you think ladies!
