Pick of the Week - March 28, 2011

So I'm currently helping my husband with a charity golf outing that the Barry University class is hosting.  It's coming up in just a few weeks and we're getting ready to start putting together the final details.  Something that really stuck out was the golfer gift bags.  I love incorporating unique items and in this case, items that are creative enough that it inspires golfers to really notice the time and effort you put into the event and come back next year!  

I found these great ball markers on of course, my favorite website Etsy.  You can either purchase the Caddyshack hand stamped markers (my personal favorite since I was a caddy growing up and I love the movie) or you can have them personalized.  If you're hosting a corporate event you could have your company name stamped on one side and a personal message on the other side.  

Boys, these would be great gift ideas for your bachelor party/golf outing too!

 

And on a side note...we're still taking golfers for the outing!  Feel free to contact me for details and registration papers.  We'd really love to have you there and it's guaranteed to be a great time!

Pick of the Week - March 21, 2011

So I'm fascinated.....with fascinators!  I just can't get enough of them.  They've become increasing popular in the realm of every day life, but when it comes to a bridal hair pieces they are incredibly beautiful and can add a lot of pizazz or whatever you'd like to call it for not a lot of money.  This one I found on Etsy for just 69.00.  A steal for a modern, unique touch of prettiness!

Pick of the Week - March 14, 2011

A good friend of ours was in town this week with his fiancee.  While the boys were out, us girls were able to talk wedding plans.  I truly enjoy being able to hear what brides are up to and what their ideas are.  We discussed everything from flowers, to her dress, to lighting.  As we continued to talk I began thinking of all those little last minute things one might forget about.  For me, it was escort, or seating cards.  It completely slipped my mind but I fell in love with so many, especially on Etsy.  One of my favorites were the "Cootie Catchers" or "Fortune Tellers".  They can serve as escort cards, wedding programs, menus, etc.  The list goes on and on as the different, creative ways you could use them!  You can make them in your colors, match them to your theme, and fill them with all sorts of fun information for your guests.  Below are a few pictures to give you some different ideas.
