paper shoes

Like I have previously blogged, I made paper shoes as container for the souvenirs. After making 20 pieces, I have accepted the fact that I won’t be able to finish them on my own. So I asked the help of my brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law. Thankfully, we were able to finish the night before the baptism.

While the cake supplier offer to bring them with her so she can set it up with the cake. Good thing she did because since it was raining hard, our buick lacrosse custom floor mats got wet. And I’m pretty sure if we were the one who brought the paper shoes, I’d be placing them on the floor to avoid being smashed by the baby’s stroller at the trunk.

And oh btw, we gave away clay key chains as souvenirs. :)

a little DIY project

As previously blogged, I had a problem with Artscow upgrading my shipping from regular to Fedex without my consent (Customs expenses incurred) but after several email exchanges with Artscow support, they agreed to give back the money that I paid Fedex/customs as cash dollars. I can use the cash dollars in my future orders.

Anyway, the guestbook that I made and ordered from Artscow for my son’s baptism has arrived my friend’s house, which I will receive on Monday. And I am currently busy doing the paper shoes that will serve as container for the souvenirs.

Some use the paper shoes as souvenir itself and put in sweets. In fact, my initial plan was to put in either a cupcake or a cookie. Hubby even joked that we can put in montecristo cigars to be given away to male guests. But we finally decided on something else. I can’t divulge it yet so it would be a surprise to the guests. ;)
