If you had not already had ALL of these things, I can not imagine what the cost of this would have been to do a shower this nicely. "Over the top" or not, it is amazing, simply amazing. Maybe the person who said that should think before they speak, because my guess would be a shower like this would be in the upwards of around $1000.00 if started from scratch...I'd say you were smart to use your own things and were talented enough to pull it off!<br /><br />I am a big fan of your blog, I just don't comment too often!Gina-Ginnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-30282895973097548482010-05-13T18:38:07.735-05:002010-05-13T18:38:07.735-05:00Suzanne~

Likewise, I have read all of your comments, and I usually do not take the time to do that.<br /><br />I can tell you have a heart of gold. Someone who takes the time to think this type of event down to the tiniest of detail (napkin rings) does not have a selfish bone in their body.<br /><br />In my experience, people who have a problem with "over the top" are usually the most selfish people I know, they are stingy, tight with their money, and only think of themselves and never put others thoughts or wishes first.<br /><br />Hats off to you my friend...you are a class act!

The stacks of "things in dishes" rising in the fridge, ready for the serving onto the platters and stands are like riches to me, offerings of my own goodwill and concern for my guests' well-being. And the putting-together BRIGHTS me, as if I could paint a painting or write a song.Racheldhttp://lawntea.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-50298257964278294002010-05-13T08:59:23.191-05:002010-05-13T08:59:23.191-05:00Oh Suzanne!
