Re: Budget101.com : ideas for wedding shower
For Party Favors I would send out a request each attendee to send you their
recipes for their favorite meal.(Appetizer, meat, sides+desserts) Then I would
compile them for the Bride. I personally like to use a photo album to store my
recipes so that I have them in a flat book to look at while I am in the kitchen.
(But they are covered in case I spill something!)Since it is for your sister you
could even put together a month of menus including shopping list. I gave this as
a gift and the bride still thanks me! There are several sites that let you imput
the recipes them print a shopping list.
For favors you could go to the Dollar store and get place mats, or dishcloths,
or little gadgets like scissors, pizza cutter, paring knife etc. Or you could
put together a cleaning basket with cleaners, sponges, mop, gloves.
Good luck!
