I found these directions and have made myself a pair, haven't taken pics yet but hopefully will get around to that soon. Here's the website: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-make-foot-thongs/

For those of you who are having a hard time hearing back from the WC at the Grand Sirenis which email address are you using. It has never been more than a day for me to get a response. Kelly - If you do switch to the Grand Sunset Princess you won't be disappointed, I was there in April and loved it!

Your friend sounds nasty & jealous. I think you are better off forgetting about having her in your bridal party. Its your wedding and you deserve to be excited & happy about it. You only get this day once so enjoy it as much as possible. At this point it doesn't sound as if there is anything you can do to smooth things over, nor do I think you should have too.

I haven't seen all her items, she moved to Ontario 2 months ago but I know she got a full sized Essie nail polish and a good sized bottle of Morrocan Oil. The Morrocan Oil came in her Sept. box. I'll post pics of mine when it arrives. Thankfully you can cancel your subscription at any time so you're not tied into any type of contract.

Hi Ladies, In case anyone is interested here is a link to Luxe Box http://luxebox.loosebutton.com/friend-sign-up?referrer=ZmFjZWZiNTM= . Basically for $12 a month you get 3 to 5 deluxe samples delivered to your door. A friend of mine has been a member for a few months and has gotten some great things. My first box comes in the 2nd week of October and I can't wait to see what's inside. I'm hoping to score some nice travel sized products to take to Mexico with me.

PM your email addresses and I'll pass along the information the WC sent to me. I have wedding packages, menus and the flower catalog.

I ordered mine off Beyond the Rack. Here are a few links for daily deals from Modnique, Beyond the Rack & Haute Look. I have ordered from both Beyond the Rack & Modnique and have had great luck. Got 2 bridesmaid dresses for $35 each and a welcome dinner dress for me for $35. http://www.modnique.com/invite/[email protected] http://www.beyondtherack.com/member/invite/B66C500 http://www.hautelook.com/invite/JThompson3115 There are no customs or duty charges and shipping ranges from $4.99 to $10 flat rate. Here is a picture of my welcome dinner dress:

Boo, just heard back from my wedding coordinator, sky lanterns are not allowed at the Grand Sirenis in Mexico.

Take him to Xplor while you're in Mexico. They have ziplining, jeep tours, underground river swims, etc. My FI loved it there when we went last year.

I just received my order from Oriental Trading, took a little less than 2 weeks to received it. They ship via Canada Post, Border free so the price you see covers everything. You don't have to worry about duty or customs with OT.

So far I have emailed the resort WC probably 4 or 5 times and its never been longer than a day until I get a response, I've been using Aracely's email address.

I just placed an order from Oriental Trading. I sucked it up and paid for shipping, my order came to $103 before taxes and shipping was $27.

Here are two more great sites that offer daily deals www.hautelook.com and www.modnique.com both offer shipping to Canada. Haute Look has some really nice Sue Wong dresses on now.

Le Chateau!! I got my FI suit there and absolutely love it. Its very similar to what you have posted. Here's the link http://www.lechateau.com/style/browse/productDetailWithPicker.jsp?productId=269387&navAction=push&categoryNav=true&navCount=0&categoryId=cat270016&selectedColor=Natural Its looks white in the picture but its actually more like the suit above.

Yup, mine are still stinking up the house and its been about 3 weeks. I layed them outside for a day and that helped a lot but I can still smell them when I open the closet.

Try this http://www.tropitek.net/wholesale/home.php?cat=460 its a Its a Canadian company and they have lots of different sizes of starfish. I was going to order mine from there but I happened to be at Winners one day and they had giant finger starfish in bags of 10 for sale for $15 so I bought mine there.

Hey Ladies, Just womdering if anyone else has had this problem with drugstore.com - I put a bunch of stuff in my cart including Emergen-C but didn't complete my order because due to the FDA rules they won't ship the Emergen-C to Canada.

Pics are ok, just not for weddings.

My dress from Babyonline arrived today!!! There are a few minor things that I don't like, but I didn't have high expectations as it was. The dress is a knock off of Pronovias Fusta and cost $147 US, customs & duty was an additional $130. Sorry about the pictures, I was home alone and had no one to lace up the back properly for me so the fit isn't the best but it will give you an idea. The Original The knock off, hate the ruffle around the waist, but that should be pretty easy to remove.

Here is my FI suit, purchased from Le Chateau.

I'm doing luggage tags, but only b/c I've found supplies that are cheap. I used trading card sleeves from the Dollar store (5 hard plastic sleeves for $1) and purchased the loops off ebay for $5, plus shipping so 100 for about $10. I'm printing the tags myself and we have a fairly small group going about 35 so the cost is low.

I had really great luck with Beyond the Rack, it took less than a week for my items to arrive.
