As I mentioned previously, I took today off sick since I spent yesterday hunched over coughing and lost my voice. It was a VERY productive day, too!
One thing I was proud of is finishing most (almost all!) of my invites! I am only waiting on 5 addresses and they will be complete. Here is the sexy back of those suckers and the giant pile of "Yay! I'm done!" invites.

| W for... well... our last name. And wickedly cool :) |
 |
| I never thought I'd say this... BUT I HAD TO HAVE NICE STAMPS. Seriously. No one will even notice. |
Also, I stumbled across this gem
http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/thank-you-gifts-vintage-inspired at the good old weddingbee! I never thought I would consider making a favour-- mostly because I couldn't find anything worth making, but then I saw this. At less than $0.50 a shot and with the cutest little idea ever, I couldn't pass it up. So, after begging for where she got them, I went out and purchased 11 packs of sparkles and beads from dollarama.

| The ones on the right-- they are the microbeads and not the sparkles. |
As a teacher I saw sparkles and went.. YES!!! SPARKLES!!! The microbeads, of course, came out of the package and left not a spot of residue. The sparkles required an hour of washing to get all the fricken sparkles out. I hate you sparkles.
 |
| And I bet I'll still have to wash most of them again... |
But in the end, I am left with 66 micro-mini bottles that I will fill with seeds and add a cute tag to and I will get a cute favour. How small and adorable are these, you ask? Here is a comparison against my new favourite pen that I used to write my invitations and just about anything else wedding related.

| Ahhhh! So cuteeeee! |
Anything you've started last minute and fallen in love with? How much were your favours per person? Did you do favours? Change your mind at the last minute?
