Maybe their web store is easier to deal with? (Apparently it's run by different people.) VERY CUTE. basically i gotta get my toosh out there and see what the store have.

I just need about 20, I dont want too many in the flowers since im doing peacock feathers. Do think thats too much going on with my flowers? As far as the p-cock feather I only wanted like 3 maybe in each arrangment or something. I have it pictured in my head and dont think it wilbe too much. But

OH def post pix if u remem

Oh they are adorable! I love them. And I think the style will look great with your dress. I'd get them!!!!!!! The color is ok I think too, once it's all on it will pull together nicely.

YAY how exciting, congrats! Have fun planning.

Its annoying not to be able to wash your face like normal you always have to be extra careful. You would be surprised how often you want to rub your eyes. They do look great for about 1.5 to 2 weeks then when they fall out they take your real lash too. I already have short lashes but after the extensions they were uneven. It took a really long time before they got back to normal. I used to work with this gal who had eye lash extensions. I thought it looked great! But I think its INSANE the shit they come up with, I mean really - EYELASH EXTENSIONS??!! Dont get me wrong, I would def love to have them (if I could afford it and had the time) but I agree that it's kinda a pain to wash face and be oh-so-delicate. I dont even have a clue as to how they do this to your eyelash. OUCH I think it would hurt. I did get my eyelashed tinted though and THAT was FUN. It made them look more full. I would do it all the time if I had the time to do it- but who has the time. I tried to do it to myself one day (they sell the tint at Sallys) - and please do not be a jack ass and try this alone like myself- it even says on the box that it takes two people to apply - well needles to say I got black dye all over my face, and fingers. Not so nice. I lovvve makeup and things of this nature though.

OH I def want these for my big day! So fun. And I agree that MAC will have the best ones. I gotta get some makeup ideas. I want to look natural but lil more dramatic with the eyes. LIL DAB'L DO YA!

I know- I'm a freak of nature. I thought maybe I wasnt the only one but joe insisted last night that I was crazy and no one cares if every angle is covered. (but I DOOOO!)

I hate when I hear sad news like this. That is heart breaking (

Sorry- I'm not getting married in Aruba but wanted to say CONGRATS! You'll find lots of peop's here to help you with anything.

That is great, congrat on your engagment! Have fun planning!!!

I checked Michael's and nothing comes up:o( I don't want to spend TOO much $$ on these. I hope I can find something other than Swavorski since it's just for the flowers....

Quote: Originally Posted by KellyandMatt08 I tried to make these. I didn't end up liking them as a bouquet by itself. Its just swavorski crystals twisted on to wire. I was going to add just a few to their and my flowers, but not too much b/c I can see it turning tacky. What do you think? And LADYCHEESE ( i dont know how to quote more than one person) yes those links are great thanks! I'll have to look into them further...

Quote: Originally Posted by LadyCheese or Crystal Bouquet Stems Ah that sounds about right, let me check Michael's link now and see if anything comes up... thx gurl!

Hm I think theres a thread on this topic that might help you.... but i dunno how to search --> can someone help??

I always try to find the answer before I post a thread and again, no luck with this one. Carly sent me a link for feather bouquets and I saw this picture on the site and LOVED it. Of course it didn't give me detail on what they were...uuummm unless of course I missed it! It gave me the idea of adding just a tiny touch of these to our flowers for alil shimmer. (wink wink) Now here's the question of the day: What the F are these things called? They are lil tiny strands of crystals or something that peop's add to flowers, or I've seen them on xmas trees before...I'm guessing Michael's Craft will have them but need to know what they are called... holla back!

I like #3, cute idea!

Pigs are so cute! Joe wants (or says he wants) to get a pot belly pig. I'd so be down for that but I highly doubt he'd actually get one. omg they are too cute. The other day I wathed Americas FUnniest Videos and they showed a baby pot belly putting a diaper on a baby. Soo fricken cute.

WAIT than where did your deposit from Nov go that you sent to hold your spot? OMG i'd be fuming.
