Thank you & yes, most definitely! They were actually pretty easy and not too consuming. Actually, I may have spent more time in the store picking out beads than I actually did making these

Hi Ladies! I just wanted to share my newest crafty creation with you all! The beads were a little pricey because I bought glass and stone beads, but after all was said and done I spent about $25 making these. I am going to make 4 more sets for my girls, but probably in a different color/style. Since I have all the jewelry making supplies now, all I will have to buy for the girls' sets are the beads - so they should end up being fairly inexpensive! These will be my "something blue." (My sister was kind enough to be my foot model because my toes were in no shape for picture taking )

I am worried about this as well. Are you typically allowed a carry on AND your dress? Or is your dress your carry on? I am probably going to have to check at least 2 suitcases...1 for clothing, toiletries, etc & 1 for OOT bags and decorations...wouldn't doubt if I needed a 3rd!

We kind of have the same dilemma. I don't want to tell my family that our DW is not the "real deal" (especially those that are really stretching their dollars to make it to Mexico) because I'm afraid they will be upset that they are spending so much money to come to our wedding when we are already technically "married." So when people have asked I have just told them that our DW is legit and that we just have to get our marriage license signed by a judge when we return. No one realizes what I'm really saying We plan on getting hitched at the courthouse right before we leave for MX, but our anniversary will be the date we get married on the beach!

For our destination wedding (including airfare/accomodations etc), plus the AHR we are spending a little under $20,000. We thought it would be cheaper to do the DW but now that we are paying for everything I don't think we are saving much. It's ok though, I'm still overly-excited

Coupon texts?!?!?! You must tell me more!!!!

Hmmm may have to look into that. That would be no bueno if they confiscated my maracas!

Welcome!! I am getting married at ERC on 6/26...June will be here before we know it! I am doing teal and green for my colors, what about you? Here is what I am putting in my bags: Mini aloe Insulated cups for bar Sunglasses Gatorade Packets Advil Tums Pepto Bismol Imodium Bug Spray Hand Sanitizer Hand/Face Wipes Deck of cards Water gun First Aid Kit Neosporin Granola Bar Gum Underwater Cameras Lip Balm Key Card/Tip Money Holder After Sun Lotion Candle Matchbook Lint Roller I am also going to put a welcome letter in there and I'm sure I'll find more odds and ends to throw in buying stuff for these bags is really addicting!

We are twins! I am getting married on June 26th too!!

Agree! I already have my bags but they have lots of other neat cheap stuff!

That really made me LOL!!! That is a great deal! Haha in Feb I ordered some screen protectors for my iPad on eBay and they were shipping from China. I totally had forgotten about them until they came in the mail last week!

Thanks sister!! Will let you know! Shan, I hope you are able to find some on the IL side!

LOL! That's how my Monday was...I was on OTC and Vistaprint all day and I don't think I got any work done

Beautiful pashminas!

I love your maracas...I just bought some teeny tiny ones from OTC - wish I would have known about Amols!!

Love the raffia fans!! I'm stealing

Yay!! So happy you were able to get some!!!!! No problem at all, I was so excited when I found them I absolutely couldn't keep it to myself!

LOL I went to the one at St Louis Mills - I definitely want to take a trip to another ON and see if I can find the teal/green ones....they are sooooo cute! Then I can just have a variety of OOT bags ) Let me know if you find them somewhere!!

I need to check out the dollar section at Target for my OOT bags, they always have the most random things there!

jkhowell - would you consider selling just a portion? I only need 12...SUBMIT

LOVE LOVE LOVE your bags! Hoping I can track down some Spanish for Dummies...
