Cocktail Shaker Bridal Shower Favor


My friend is very "Sex and the City" so I decided that the perfect shower favor for her would be a single serving mini cocktail shaker. Perfect for any modern woman...when you want that Cosmo after a hard day at work, come home and throw it in your personal shaker, pour into your chilled glass and relax!
Pricetag: $16.00/piece
I had my Sister-in-law print out a scroll of the Bride-to-Be's favorite cocktails, rolled them and put in the middle of the shaker. I also had matching tags printed with a little thank you to the guests for attending. My Sister-in-law, Sue, is incredibly talented! Check out her blog at http://www.kittymonsterdesigns.blogspot.com/ She creates the best, most unique stationary. She is the creator of my very fun Blog header and business cards! Check her out!

Mother of the Bride Survival Kit


I came up with this idea as I watched my good friend and her Mother plan her wedding. I remember last year while my Mother and I were doing the same for my wedding and thought, there should always be a gift included for the Mother of the Bride as they are with you through it all. I put together a sweet poem of items every Mother should have for the Big Day.
Pricetag: $35.00





Panty Roses for the Bride-to-Be!

I had a fun request from the Mother-of-the-Bride, for a Panty Rose bouquet. She had seen the baby socks and thought she'd like something similar for the Bridal Shower. I said, hey, I can do that! So here's a couple of pictures of some thong panties that were made into roses, added some greenery and...voila! A fun decoration piece for the Bride-to-Be to enjoy!
Pricetag: $35.00 **
**Price includes 4 thong panties, vase, greenery and ribbon (as shown above)

Ain't that the truth!
