WOW. Very detailed and gave me a lot of ideas for when I decide to creat a OOT bags!

[to be mrs scuba]

WOW!  These look great! Thanks for sharing!!!

[MJKH]

Ok, now the baskets are done! Ran out of room in the ladies' basket so put the personal care items in a small cosmetic bag. I found the acrylic photo holders at Michaels ($1.50) and the punched cards came in a box of 50 (all fruit-punch colours with envelopes) from Winners ($6.99). Because they're single layer cardstock, they should work perfectly for a little sign beside each basket.

I wish I was as creative as you, great job!

[MJKH]

Oh thanks, I try.  I've often been tempted to start a new thread on BDW called "What could I do/make with this?"...because so many brides have so many amazing ideas that I would have never thought of!  Like I have this long...maybe 8 feet...of alternating crystals/metal loops lying around...and continue to wonder "What could I do with this?".

"Resort Dining"

"Local Area Information"

"Local Transportation Information"

"Money Matters"

"Notes" (Blank/Last Page)

 

The passport covers are from Michaels (purchased this last summer)...the cardstock paper covers are Vistaprint oversized postcards with a saturated pink (reverse) side.  About 1 inch was trimmed off the left side of the card to fit the cover...then the corners were clipped.  I'm not going to lie...as helpful as some of the examples were that I found here on BDW, the formatting of the booklet was a nightmare.  But neither my FI nor I are stellar when it comes to the world of computers.  I attempted to put some clip art in here and there, but eventually gave up : (

If I remember correctly, they were $1.50 each here at Michaels in Canada last spring/summer.  I wouldn't be surprised if they show up in the dollar bins again there soon.  I would ask every time you go in there as stuff if sometimes hard to find and not where you would expect it.
