I finally found some OOT bags and goodies

[laura b]

I dragged the FH to the Dollar Tree around the corner, and he was grumbling the whole way, saying, we're never going to find ANYTHING, and as he's on his cell in the store, he points to these little perfect straw bags. And gives me this, "how do you know EVERYTHING?" look.

So, we bought them and some frames for our guests, and some tin candles. We're going to make stickers for the candles with our little hibiscus logo and name and date on them.

We also have sunscreen, playing cards, after sun care and chapstick all purchased at a dollar store (except the after sun stuff on eBay). Now we only have the koozies, cds and luggage tags to make. Woohoo!

Those bags are really cute!

They're not bad for $1 each. And that flower part is a front pocket which is pretty sweet.

Great finds Laura- those are awesome!

Laura, what a find. Those bags and the frames are really cute! The $ stores are a great place to get those little odds and ends you need. I went to the $Tree the other day and bought a bunch of paper lanterns for Maggie and Tadd's reception. They were a package of 2 for a buck! You can't beat that!

Anyway, your stuff looks great!

Yeah Laura Dollar Tree has been my favorite spot for about a month now. I drive from location to location since sometimes they have different items, sizes, and colors.

 

I've also purchased large sippee cups in orange, pink and clear.

I looked at both the sippy cups and the lanterns. I wanted to get lanterns for the AHR, but Michael said, "let's not worry about that right now."

Of course, when we want them, they'll be gone.

Did you put the sippy cups in the OOT bags?

Laura ,

 

Where can I go to make a wedding logo stickers ? Is there a website? My mom got these cute beach colored chinese boxes from target and I wanted to put a sticker on the front.I am also a 7/7/07 too I'm getting excited!!

[sweetpeaslee30]

Those frames are real cute too where did you find them?

[laura b]

I got them at the Dollar Tree. That place is really amazing sometimes.

 

The stickers we're just going to make ourselves on the computer. The FH designed our invitations, so he'll just use that design to make stickers for the candles and also we're going to use the same design for the koozies (an outline of a pink hibiscus).

 

Finally, things are taking shape. Now if I could just find some shoes!
