If you have your heart set printed napkins your monogram "aRk>"would be nice and classy. Or, simply an "R".<BR/><BR/>I hate to see you give up on the chair decorations because I know that you already compromised in renting the plain, gray chairs. Here's what I'm thinking... Give each chair a "sash" -- just a strip of ribbon (grosgrain, perhaps) or tulle (white, blue, pomegranate) tied around the chair back with either a bow or knot in back and the "tails" hanging down a bit. Then stick a sprig of fresh greenery (free from the roadside!), or rosemary, or lavender, or a fresh flower in each knot. Play around with it. Simple, simple and pretty.Christian - Modobject@Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09687272618188063178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246655362094514107.post-28205960660427792162008-09-02T21:34:00.000-05:002008-09-02T21:34:00.000-05:00Thanks for the link love!

It was a wedding gift.

I have a cheap idea for the metal chair decor. When my brother in law got married, I helped his wife to be decorate. It was at christmas and we tied silver ribbon and hung an ornament so it hung from the back. It was a small, inexpensive touch that gave the metal chairs a bit of pazazz. so maybe you could tie ribbon around it and hang your favorite silk flower or something-shouldn't break the bank and will look nice too.Susan @ Blessed Assuranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00632499638170390624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246655362094514107.post-27855790713209789902008-08-31T22:28:00.000-05:002008-08-31T22:28:00.000-05:00Hi Kelly - I haven't commented on your blog in qui...Hi Kelly - I haven't commented on your blog in quite a while. But, I have so enjoyed reading all about your wedding details. I have no doubt that it is all going to be beautiful!! If you have to cut something, I agree with the others on the printed napkins - after all, people are going to be wiping their mouth and hands with them and throwing them away. Hope all is well! ~ LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10552341006437420737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246655362094514107.post-80357475481893357192008-08-31T21:44:00.000-05:002008-08-31T21:44:00.000-05:00I was going to say the same thing.

It would be a nice touch (I think) but a lot of work and probably very expensive for as many chairs as you will be having. I Ll-you (as Caleb now says)!<BR/>MandyMandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17029369533497498932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246655362094514107.post-62268815188652993302008-08-30T12:31:00.000-05:002008-08-30T12:31:00.000-05:00I am with Meredith.

I didn't want so much printing on ours either because if you have left over there is not ever really a time when you can use them again with a date. So, I opted for ones with just a calligraphy L so that we could use them again for whatever. That was nice and I enjoyed them over just plain napkins. <BR/><BR/>I think you could find cheap wooden stirrers at Sam's as well. You might could even ask at Starbucks if you can buy a box, but it might be more expensive.<BR/> <BR/>I'm with Meredith on the chairs!<BR/><BR/>Love the candles!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11566102312323790992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246655362094514107.post-38727088614175942922008-08-30T06:48:00.000-05:002008-08-30T06:48:00.000-05:00If it were me, I'd skip the napkin printing.

My mother always told me it was on the tacky side.<BR/><BR/>Maybe a stamp or embosser with the letter of your new last name--if you really feel strongly about it?<BR/><BR/>You can buy thin wooden stirrers for coffee at the grocery store or a restaurant supply store. I don't know about what they have at Starbucks, but they look like thin balsa wood and are very cheap.<BR/><BR/>Once people are sitting in the chairs, no one will notice that they're bare! <BR/><BR/>Your tabletops sound divine.Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08455517419708043340noreply@blogger.com
