DIY checks PIP!

Hello ladies!!! I hope that you are having a great weekend so far! I have been busy this week and have completed some DIY Projects. I am working on getting most of my stationary done before the end of the month. YAY!!! So I have finished my shot glasses for my OOT Boxes, have priced and have decided what I want in the boxes, have a mock up of the boxes and have done my petal holders for tossing after we jump the broom (have put my ribbons on them already also, but don't have a pic). I designed the sign for our bathroom baskets as well. I also got in a little organizing of all of these wedding items this week. I will probably get started on printing the "B list" invites or the invites to the people I am sure are not coming, later on today or tomorrow.

For my OOT Boxes I will include :
Coca Cola glass bottles soda (because the wedding is in ATL)

Coca Cola glasses (Have been slowly buying them for a year)
Personalized shot glasses that I am DIY
Personalized bottle of water
Bottle of Orange Juice (I am obsessed with OJ! LOL!)
1 shot of Smirnoff vodka
Some type of cookies (Oreos)
DIY brochures
Some Atlanta Attraction brochures
Gum
Advil
Candy (probably Hershey kisses)
Granola bars
Nuts


DIY Shot glasses!





Tossing Petal Holder





OOT boxes mock up!

    Super cute. How did you do the shot glasses and doesn't OJ need to be refrigirated?

    Congrats! Everything looks great.... I'm with the rest of the ladies on the shot glass question.

    Those single bottles of OJ only need to be refrigerated once opened

    Thanks!!!
     
    I got some small clear candle holders from Hobby Lobby and there is some heavy duty clear sticker paper that is printable at Hobby Lobby. I just designed the monogram in publisher, printed it on the stickers as labels and cut them out and stuck them on the glasses. Very easy!

    Only certain ones need to be refrigerated. The tropicana ones (I think), are sold room temperature. They sell them in bulks at Sams by the grape and apple juices. You just have to chill them or make sure they are in the Fridge after opening.
