Howdy folks!

Thought I'd share some of my findings for those of you who are doing DIY's projects for your wedding day...

** Got a Pier1 Imports email today and they are having a 75% sales going on! (Remember, they are In Store Only)

Few things that caught my eyes for both aesthetic, functionality and of course, price:
1. Glass Hurricanes - available in Green (LOVE!), Amber, and Clear
2. Glass Hurricane on Stand (Clear)
3. Metal & Glass Hurricane -- Not a best price for a centerpiece, but maybe for your home
4. Green Glass Hurricane - ok, it's not green like in #1 above, it's more like...tinted green.
5. Fall Leaves Gem Mix (CUTE!!!)
6. Acorn & Gem Mix (CUTE!!!)

These would make great favors:
1. Botanical Soaps
2. Round Soaps (CUTE!)
3. Assorted Mini Diffusers (Island Orchard, Citrus Cilantro, and Pink Honeysuckle)
- It's a set of three so that means...buy 1 = 3 guest favors for under $ 5! Yipppeee!!
4. Assorted Mini Diffusers (Spice Pear, Ginger Peach, and Island Orchard) - same price as above!

** I am not sure about other branches, BUT AC Moore in Willow Grove is currently running 30%-40% off for their containers and some of their Valentine's items (there is this one stlye of votive holder that is mosaic-like and could be used for weddings without having it screamed "Valentine's").
They have great selection for Grecian/Roman and Asian style ceramic vases. I particularly like the simple, clean, matte look of the Asian style vases (in black, jade green, red, and tan), great of Ikebana arrangements. I believe the sales runs through tomorrow, January 23rd. So stop by when you can!


** CB2.com is one of my favorite online shoppping spot and they are having some fun items on sale, check these out!
1. Any of these would make a great cocktail table decor vs regular votive candle:
Lumiere Mini Candle Holder  -or- Snowball Glass Candleholder
2. Clay Monkey Mask Ornament - OK, I don't know if this would qualify as a favor, but I LOVE IT CUZ IT'S SO CUTE!


Alright, enough browsing through the net-o-sphere here, but hope you'll find these useful! ^_^

Have a great weekend!
