Groom's / Groomsman's shirt and backless strapless bra still available :-) Make an offer? Quote: Originally Posted by TheTomato Wedding extras for sale!

There are 3 in a "diamond" blue pattern, 2 in a "giraffe" blue, 1 "giraffe" brown, 5 maroon "diamond" and 1 striped green. All have a tropical leaf and nice (no thready edges) pink orchid tied to the handle with brown raffia. Paid $6.50 a piece, selling all 12 for $50. Custom Designed Travel/Hangover/First Aid Kits I have 9 extra kits that I had made up for my guests. Each kit is 'designed' for 2 people and contains Tylenol, Band-Aids, Pepto Chewables, Motion Sickness Tablets, Sani-Hands Antibacterial Wipes, and SunX towelettes that contain SPF 30 and bug repellent. Each is packaged in a glassine bag with a sticker on the front I designed describing the contents. Asking $20 for all 9. OOT Bag Extras: - 26 SunX Towelettes: These are little wipes that have SPF 30 and a natural cedar-based bug repellent. - 24 Sani-Hands Wipes: Individually wrapped antibacterial wet wipes (sorry- no pic). - 32 Puzzle Books: 24 large yellow crossword puzzle books, 4 large blue crossword puzzle books, and 4 Soduku Would really like to sell these together. Asking $20 for all wipes and books. Sassybax Very Bare Backless Strapless Bra Sassybax Very Bare Backless Bra VB14 at BareNecessities.com Never worn! I only tried this on once for my dress fitting for 5 minutes and had to go with something else b/c my dress is very thin and chiffon is unforgiving for any kind of "lines" and I ended up finding a spanxy thing that didn't show any lines. I didn't return it in time to get my money back. It is the nude color size AA. It is the only bra like this I found that has a little push up padding in it without being heavy and would be good for other members of the itty bitty committee looking for a backless solution. Got great reviews online and from Oprah, etc. I paid over $80 with shipping and tax. Asking $40 OBO. Men's White Linen Shirt "Banana Republic Classic" 100% linen shirt with white on white detailing. Bought 2 sizes for one of the groomsmen and realized when cleaning I forgot to return the other. Still has tags- never worn. Paid $45.99- asking $30. Would LOVE to sell everything together- make an offer! Buyers pay shipping. (I will box things up and put them on a scale in the box to calculate shipping and let you know.) Paypal, cash or money order. I am really pressed for time and want to avoid any extra packaging or post office runs so I won't break things into smaller groups unless I absolutely HAVE to. Thanks, congrats and happy planning!

I haven't yet gotten the pictures or video so I can't really give a review. Stacy did OK with the ceremony but if I had to do it again, I would have just gone with the Westin's planner for the reception instead of hiring her. Not sure about a villa reception though. The only advice I'd give is be very wary of shipping. I still have one of my boxes floating in space somewhere. I sent 10 boxes down almost a month in advance and was still missing two the day of the wedding. I will check back in when the pictures arrive!

I'm not sure about the villas, but we had our rehearsal/welcome party at Beach Bar in Cruz Bay. They did a GREAT job and it was fun... and right on the beach. The tuna bites are awesome! We did a couple salads, sandwiches and a bunch of appetizers. They set up some tables for us on the beach so we had our own little spot.

I had some extra kits for sale on the buy/sell forum and people seemed to like the labels so I'm posting them here in case anyone can use them. I made these in a graphing program that nobody seems to use so I have a pdf to post. I printed them out on full sheet stickers, cut them into quarters and used a rounded corner punch to finish the corners off. Hope someone else can use them :-) KitLabels.pdf

Sorry for the delayed response. OK, so the completed kits seem to be sold. Someone had asked about the books. All but the 4 soduku books are larger size- like 8 x 11 or so. I really want to try and keep as much as I can together (boxes have to go with me on the train to work). Sorry- I cannot figure out the PM thing otherwise I'd email this! Miss Frog- you wanted to break things up but S2BLennon- did you want to books and the wipes? As for the template- I created these in a mac program called OmniGraffle which nobody seems to use on these boards. But I converted it to a PDF and am going to attempt to post. Glad you guys like it!

Tell me about your experiences with Bare Escentuals/Minerals
TheTomato replied to tvt's topic in Beauty, Exercise, Diet
I have read that while BE is great makeup for everyday, that it doesn't photograph well (pretty much applies to all mineral makeup). Basically, the minerals are reflective so it looks washed out in most lighting, especially a flash. While I'm at it, I've also read that makeup with SPF will do the same thing. Now... if I could only find that article I read it in! It had some great recommendations for what brands to get. I will keep hunting... -
I am making my own table runners. I bought very basic fabric that matches the color I want and got this fuse/tape stuff that is basically like a double face tape that melts and bonds when you iron it. No sewing the edges- yeah! And I got all the fabric (enough for 10 tables) labor day weekend for less than $50
