OMG

OMG! I know I set up some pretty strict rules about blogging while I am "working" but I had to share this!!


I have been watching the Hobby Lobby ads to see when their Christmas ornaments would go on sale. (Yes, it's July. Yes, they already have Christmas ornaments out.) (A little background information as to why I am so freakin stoked about Christmas ornaments in July: I am planning on using Christmas ornaments as favors for my wedding. We are going to have a 15 foot monstrosity of a Christmas tree in the entry way to our reception site and it will be decorated with my beautiful ornament favors.)


So, I saw today that they had some on sale. So I rushed there over lunch to check it out.


Well, the ones on sale were the clear craft kind- not what I wanted. BUT! They did have a gamillion other ornaments there, just not on sale yet. And I think I may have found the PERFECT ones!


To put you in my wedding frame of mind... I am going to be in white (What?! You may ask, given my previous description of "firsts." Ahem, yes, I am innocent and full of wonderment, just ask my dad). Joe will be in some sort of dark tux. My 'maids will be in black. The head table (where all 26 of us will be sitting) will be in all white- white tablecloth, white chair covers, white chair ties, white napkins. The guest tables will have black tablecloths and black chair covers, with either white or bright pink chair ties. So lots of black and white.


So feast your eyes on these little beauties!!!

Can they be more perfect? I think not. And, I have already practiced with a paint pen and you can write on them! Because we (by we I mean my mom) will personalize all 200 of them with something like "Happy Holidays, Joe and Sue December 6, 2008"

I AM SO EXCITED!

Yeah! Those are perfect. I bet a fuschia satin ribbon to hang them on the tree would be beautiful ! I'm just sayin', but ..... I've been wrong before LOL.
