Pom Pom Success!

Check out my first attempt at our orange Napkin Ring pom-poms! It was super easy and turned out just like the picture. Plus it will cost about $5 to make all of them! Thanks Martha, queen of craft! There will definitely be a pom-pom party so stay tuned!

Table Names

We've been toying around with different ideas for table names. Want to weigh in? Some of these would be games with the seating card being a clue to the table. Not everyone is going to know the answers to these but it would be fun and could spark conversation!

1. Cellists - Could be first and last names. Your card says Jacqueline so your table is DuPre.
2. Famous Couples - Your card says Romeo and your table is Juliet, could have many different tones of this one - modern, classic, literature, film, etc.
3. Great Food Pairings - Your card says milk so your table is cookies!
4. Us at what age - Your card says 14 so you have to walk around and find the table with the picture of Rob and I at age 14
5. Math Problems - Your card has anything from addition to calculus problems, your table is the answer. Serious math geeks!
6. Composer/Compositions - Your card has a bit from a famous score, your table is the composer. Serious music geeks!
7. Muppets - just good old Muppet tables

Other ideas welcome!!!

Table settings - something totally different

Hi everyone! I started thinking, who among us really cares about linen napkins, tablecloths and fancy china? And I couldn't really think of anyone. But we do care about the environment and wouldn't it be nice to spend some of that money we'd save on food instead of things to put food on which no one remembers anyway! So what do you guys think of these Bamboo plates, 100% biodegradable, sturdier and nicer looking than paper and much cheaper than china rental.
I also found cool Birchwood "silver"-ware, also 100% biodegradable. We have ordered a sample of both so will keep you posted on them!
