Hmm well just took delivery of a few stationary bits (reserved signs, favour qoutes and A-Z's) that I won wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy back in April last year! Not sure how I feel about them to be honest?
I think because the whole experiance was a nightmare its kinda put a dampner on everything and instead of seeing pretty's I'm just seeing stress :-( Will take pic's of everything later and see what you all think? Not sure I would have paid for them if I hadn't have WON them to be honest! Def don't think they are worth £150 (the value of the prize) for the amount I got but oh well they are free and one less job to do myself which is always good lol
Right post later I have to go do the nursery run

Ok after showing my mum everything I started to feel better about everything Yes they won't match the rest of the stationary but they do still fit in with the overall look so won't look odd! I then looked at each item closer and now I'm fuming!!!!
The reserved signs are great BUT four of them (both sets of parents) were SUPPOSED to have little poems on, on the inside of the tent fold but according to her she couldn't print them on or they would be upside down apparently?? :-(
So now I need to work out what font the rest of the card is done in, print off the poems to the right size to fit, put them onto some sort of backing card and then stick the whole thing in myself oooooooooooooooooooo what fun
NOT HAPPY

A deffo C O W wont share her secrets how you meant to fix her mistake if she does not tell you what font she used and maybe you can tweak the poem to make it a tad different to what you show your dad to keep it kinda still a surprise or add to the poem =D ♥ X

CommentAuthorLinzi-jo
I would tell her that she didn't provide what you asked for an therefore you expect her to send you the poems on a same size piece of card using the same font so that you can stick it in yourrself. I know you got them free, but she still hasn't delivered on what she said she would. And if she refuses then make it clear to her you will be in touch with whoever you won the prize from to complain about her, and you wont hesitate in letting others who want to order with her know that they may not get what they ask for xxx

Unfortantly the comp was run by her (on her facebook page) so have no one to complain to but her :-( Ive sent her an email requesting either her to send me the font details or for her to do them on card the right size ready for me to glue them in at no extra cost because of the upset lol so will see what happens!

Right she's given me the font VERY reluctently tho but oh well Ive sent it to my dad and he's seeing what he can do as we didnt manage to go over this weekend as my youngest daughter has chicken pox :-(
Anyway Ive been browsing rings today and oh my I think this is gonna be worse then picking the dress! When I was looking I came across these
initial charms.JPG
and decided to get them for mine and the bridesmaids bouquets so they don't get them mixed up as I am using them as the cake table decoration! And Ive just won them all for 4 quid including postage...... BARGAIN!
I'll only be using C, R , S, J, H, and B tho lol But I'm sure I'll think of something for the other 20 lol
Oh and maybe the L, M and K??

You could always get some sort of diamante/gem attachment to the ribbon or get some gems and stick 3 tiny ones in the corner or something!? The black is such a statement in itself it doesnt need 'much' to decorate to be honest.
As for the men I think just some sort of ribbon around it will be 'manly' enough! x
