Especially 4 Kids! Aren't These Mini Hamburgers Cute? What else...

Are you having a special menu for the kiddies? What is it? I know that majority will waste elaborate foods. Hubby thinks they should eat what we eat, which is Italian Pasta Milano, Citrus Garden Salad and Garlic-Cheese breadsticks. What do you think?

We are having it buffet style, so I was thinking more on the healthy side for the kiddies, like Miniture Hamburgers, macaroni & cheese and salad. No french fries, because potatoes are not our best friend not unless mashed.

Let me know your kiddie menus?

Meat Trays: What Do You Ladies Think About These?







Oh, Vintagebabe! Where are you when I need your input? Congratulations on your up coming ceremony..I know you're busy!

Since we're doing our own Italian buffet of Pasta Milano, Citrus Garden Salad and Garlic-Cheese Breadsticks...I thought about meat and chesse trays and was totally turned off by the average looking trays that are round and flat.

I just saw this and like this much better with silver tiered trays. What do you ladies think about this look for our Tiffany Theme? Would this fly????

Bubble Jewelry...Is this to much?
<







You know me, I love blinging up things...I saw this and fell in love with it. Unfortunately our venue doesn't allow bubbles....Boooowhoooo, but here are some instructions to help you lucky ones out.

Is this to much? LOL






Project Instructions to make Rhinestone Wedding Bubble Bottles
All you'll need to make your Wedding Bubble Bottles are:

1. Standard sized (.6 oz) bubble bottles - purchase at Michael's, etc. or online
2. Craft glue (we love Tacky Glue because it dries clear, quick & strong)
3. Scissors & ruler
4. Rhinestone trim in the color (or colors) of your wedding

Directions for Choker / Short Bow / Long Bow
Tip: The standard sized bubble bottle that we used in the photo is 2 3/4" around the neck. Make sure that your bottle is the same. If not, make allowances in the length of the rhinestone trim you cut for each bubble bottle.

Rhinestone "Choker" Instructions:

10 yard bolt of Rhinestone trim will do 130 standard .6 oz bubble bottles.
Cut one rhinestone strip at 2 3/4" and verify that this is the correct length for your sized bubble bottle. After making sure that you have the correct length to use as a pattern, go ahead and cut your rhinestone trim for each bubble bottle.
It is easiest to do a dozen at a time. So, lay 12 of the bubble bottles on their side and put a small amount of craft glue (make sure it is glue that dries clear - we love Tacky Glue) on the back of the neck of each bottle (see picture).
Take your rhinestone strips and lay the center of the strip in the glue on the back of the neck. Make sure that the rhinestone strip is centered and the same amount hangs down on each side of the bubble bottle (see picture).
Do all 12 bubble bottles and wait about 10 minutes for the glue to set up a little.
Once the glue has set up a little (but is still adjustable in case you need to slide the rhinestone trim around a little) pick up a bubble bottle and apply a little glue to the front (opposite side where you put the glue before) of the neck.
Pull each loose side of the rhinestone strand up and gently press end into the glue so that the ends meet (see picture). Note: if you are using a glue that dries clear - such as Tacky Glue - you will not be able to see the glue once it dries.)
Let dry for at least 12 hours before handling your one of a kind Wedding Bubble Bottles!

"Short Rhinestone Bow" Instructions:

10 yard bolt of Rhinestone trim will do 85 standard .6 oz bottles.

Cut one rhinestone strip at 4 1/4" and verify that this is the correct length for your sized bubble bottle (neck of bottle should be 2 3/4" for this length). After making sure that you have the correct length to use as a pattern, go ahead and cut your rhinestone trim for each bubble bottle.
It is easiest to do a dozen at a time. So, lay 12 of the bubble bottles on their side and put a small amount of craft glue (make sure it is glue that dries clear - we love Tacky Glue) on the back of the neck of each bubble bottle (see picture).
Take your rhinestone strips and lay the center of the strip in the glue on the back of the neck. Make sure that the rhinestone strip is centered and the same amount hangs down on each side of the bubble bottle (see picture).
Do all 12 bubble bottles and wait about 10 minutes for the glue to set up a little.
Once the glue has set up a little (but is still adjustable in case you need to slide the rhinestone trim around a little) pick up a bottle and apply a drop of glue to the center front (opposite side where you put the glue before) of the neck.
Pull one side of the rhinestone strand up, gently pull taunt and press the strand into the glue (see picture).
Put another drop of glue on top of rhinestone strand (right over where you put the other drop) and then pull the other side of the rhinestone strand up and cross over the first strand. Press strand into the glue. Note: if you are using a glue such as Tacky Glue which dries clear - you will not be able to see the glue once it dries.)
Let dry for at least 12 hours before handling your stunning Wedding Bubble Bottles!

"Long Rhinestone Bow" Instructions:

10 yard bolt of Rhinestone trim will do 65 standard .6 oz bottles.

Cut one rhinestone strip at 5 1/2" and verify that this is the correct length for your sized bubble bottle (neck of bottle should be 2 3/4" for this length). After making sure that you have the correct length to use as a pattern, go ahead and cut your rhinestone trim for each bottle.
It is easiest to do a dozen at a time. So, lay 12 of the bubble bottles on their side and put a small amount of craft glue (make sure it is glue that dries clear - we love Tacky Glue) on the back of the neck of each bottle (see picture).

Let dry for at least 12 hours before handling your elegant Wedding Bubble Bottles!

Amazed! Dollar Store Favor Transformation Bags








Good things come to those who wait again...I'M ON A ROLL BUDDY! I've been eyeing favor bag boxes, for a while now...I kind of wanted the vibe of shopping at Tiffany's for the guests. I went by my friendly Dollar Tree today and saw these in a pack of 12 for $1.00! So I got 6 packs=72 favors which is pently for $6.00?????? I added some labels & Tiffany ribbon to the bags, Wholla! I'll do touch up to ribbon edges later...

1. These will be part of the favors near each guest plate

2. along with the silver boxes of mints. Since we're having an Italian Garlic-ky Menu, the mints will come in handy.

3. Pic#4 My homemade Wedding cookie on each plate
