  1. Oh no!! You poor thing, I'm so sorry you messed up your table but best of luck with the rest of the project, can't wait to see them!
  2. I am guestimating and buying items that I find good deals on but that I could still buy later on if I needed more, or things that wouldn't matter if they weren't exactly the same in everyones bags. Ex: I got a really good deal on mini hand sanitzers so I picked them up but I could always buy more, I got packs of brightly colored tissues from the dollar store but it wouldn't really matter if I couldn't find the exact same ones for everyone b/c they are just tissue packs.
  3. What would we do without Target?? Thanks for the tip!
  4. I got my mom one at Zales a long time ago so I think you can go to any local jewelry store to get one made. Good luck!
  5. Great deal, my mom just got a new membership there, I might have to see if she wants to help me buy some cards!
  6. Here is a packing list I got from a person on Cruisecritic, it is specifically for cruising guests but I'm sure a lot of things still apply so you can pick and choose what is helpful for you: Suggested Cruise Packing List 2-3 Swimsuits & a swimsuit cover-up (also, if you have an SPF board shirt, it will come in handy for snorkeling) Note that Beach Towels are provided by the ship; no need to bring your own. 2-4 Shorts 5-7 T-shirts, Tank Tops 1 pair jeans (long pants & socks are required if you want to go ice skating) Pajamas, Underwear, socks Hat, Visor, Sunglasses Windbreaker, or a light sweater or jacket. Workout clothes (the gym is nice!) Sandals or Flip-flops; Tennis shoes or good walking shoes Water Shoes – inexpensive water shoes work fine; they are needed for Dunn’s River Falls Dinner Clothes Normal attire for the dining room – 4 nights of the cruise: remember the rules: No Shorts, Tank Tops or Jeans in the dining room: •MEN: a collared shirt (aloha shirt, any button down, or a polo shirt are all good) & slacks (Dockers are fine) •WOMEN: skirts, sundresses, capri pants, blouses (sleeveless tops are ok for girls). You may want a light sweater, in case it is cold in the dining room. Formal attire for the dining room – 2 nights of the cruise: These dress-up nights are a lot of fun & a great opportunity for pictures. •MEN: you’ll see everything from tuxes to suits to sportcoats to shirts & ties with a nice pair of dress slacks & dress shoes. •WOMEN: again, you’ll see a variety from cocktail dresses, to long gowns, to evening pants with fancy blouses The first night in the dining room: We’d like everyone to wear what they wore to the wedding – that way we can get some great dinner pictures for the wedding book. Personal Items Prescription meds – in the original container Toiletries Glasses or contacts Sunscreen *** note that Hairdryers are provided in the rooms Miscellaneous items that come in handy on a cruise Camera & Charger Disposable Water Camera Power Strip or Extension Cord – note that there is usually only 1 power outlet per cabin Bathroom Spray Nightlight Books Alarm Clock Insulated mugs are handy to keep your drinks cold out by the pool. A few clothespins for drying clothes in the shower As far as traveling by plane, here are some recommendations: Take on the Plane Cash Jewelry Book Sunglasses Cell Phone (and chargers) – check with your carrier about fees in the Caribbean Prescription Meds PASSPORTS (or Birth Certificate & Picture ID) / Plane Tickets / Confirmations Anything you need for the wedding (just in case luggage gets lost, carry wedding clothes on). Wait until we are at the port to put your cruise luggage tags on your bags, else they may get sent straight from the airport to the cruise terminal…. A day too early! And, in that same vein of potential lost/delayed luggage….. I always carry on a few items of clothing for the trip, that way you can enjoy Cocoa Beach on Saturday, even if your luggage is delayed….: •Sweatshirt •Swimsuit •Flaps •Shorts & t-shirt or tank top ***** My suggestion for flyers is that each take a backpack + either a roll-on bag or a garment bag. Have any irreplaceable items (such as meds, jewelry, passports), anything you need for the wedding, and if room allows a small subset of vacation clothes) with you. There are stores in Cocoa Beach if you need to pick up toiletries & some extra clothes, in the event your suitcase just doesn’t show… and while rare, it’s been known to happen. I find that if I carry on these things, my suitcases always arrive ;-)
  7. I was at the dollar tree the other day and grabbed a pack of cards at the register, it ended up being one used by a casino. The pack I grabbed was from Reno but there might be some from Vegas for those girls who are doing a Vegas wedding I thought it would be a good idea for OOT bags!
  8. I agree with maura, you should get the packets and put labels over them, that way they would be a normal shape and not have to fit over a round or odd shaped sunblock.
  9. Super cute, my neighbor used to make the animals ones and sell them but she got sick and doesn't do it anymore, but you can find them around if you aren't brave enough to pick up sewing!
  10. No luck yet here either but I'm not giving up yet, maybe they will come with next weeks shipment!
  11. Great job, those came out really cute and I love that you labeled the pic!!
  12. That is really cute, I have a shower coming up so thanks for the idea!!
  13. Nice find, I'll have to stop by dollar tree! I am going to make some luggage tags with business cards so I wanted them smaller than the staples ones, Thanks!
