Default Has anyone seen where we can get...

2 different things!!!

First, we are doing name cards for the everyone at the tables, We're looking to buy some in bulk! You know the car holders? It doesn't have to look weddingish, Just funky!!!! And suggestions...?

And other things was, I wanted some neat for people to do when they want us to kiss! My girlfriend had these wood frogs from Bali that if u rubbed there back they would ribbit!

Any suggestions? Or has anyone seen anything unique like that?


Thanks in advance!

Ok are you really looking for something off the wall like the frogs! When I think of the frogs I think of a gift my father got for Christmas its a purple piggy bank that when u touch his tail he oinks and walks.

Car holders?

For noise makers, here is what my girlfriend had http://images.google.ca/imgres?imgur...lr%3D%26sa%3DG

Obviously, it's WAAAAAAY to expensive! But I would like something other than "traditional" noise makers.

Card Holders, Maybe something silver, or....well whatever!

I think she's talking about wedding place card holders.

There are alot of different idea's I've seen.

You could paint rocks with each guest name, or write on a silk leave, or use corks with a slit to put the card into like this

ikea and pier one usually have some great ideas too... just think outside the box when looking.

We found frames with a heart and dangling jewel at the Dollar Tree and used them.

http://cgi.ebay.com/48-Silver-Scroll...QQcmdZViewItem

these will serve both purposes... card holder and noise maker but aren't really funky
http://cgi.ebay.com/100-Silver-WEDDI...QQcmdZViewItem

these are pretty funky
http://cgi.ebay.com/wedding-place-ca...QQcmdZViewItem

these are cute and double as a favor bag
http://cgi.ebay.com/100-Handbag-Plac...QQcmdZViewItem

these are unique and double as a candle holder (could also use as a favor)
http://cgi.ebay.com/75-Wedding-HEART...QQcmdZViewItem

have you checked out after New Years Eve sales for noise makers?

OK what about cow bells with pretty ribbon or raffia tied on them. You could even prime and paint them in your wedding colors.

I'm glad you found something that will work.

I just got the oriental trading magazine ( orientaltrading.com ) they always have coupons for free shipping and right now I think I have one for free shipping + 15% off.

Anyway they had TONS of noisemakers. Wedding and nonwedding styles. They had bazooka's, maraca's, maracca's that were pens, clappers, train whistles ect...
