| | I has hoping to get a start on the table cards this week since the
"courtesy" of our guests' response were "requested" by Wednesday.
However, apparently courtesy and request aren't strong enough words-
out of the 157 people we invited, we got 101 responses- that means
there's 56 people who haven't responded! That's 29 phone calls to
make!
I digress. Since our reception is being held at a yacht club, I decided to make the Martha Stewart paper boats
as name cards. She suggests they're only for kids, but hey- who
doesn't want a cute paper good? They also have lifesaver mints
attached, so it's useful as well. Here's Martha's version:
I have no idea where she purchased her blue and white "twine". I
searched all over for some and ended up twisting some blue and white
embroidery floss together. Because it took so long to twist the
floss together we decided on only 1 lifesaver per boat. The total
cost of these guys was about $10 for 100 of them. We had the
bamboo skewers and paper left over from bbq's and invitations.
Here's my finished product.
I will make the font more legible and have a picture of the meal choice (fish, cow, chicken, mushroom- from my invitation response cards)
on the back. I'm also thinking of color-coding the paper to the
meal choice. Now if only I can get those darn RSVP's in!!!
