Cocktail Napkins

Hi Ladies,
Wanted to take a quick survey on cocktail napkins. DO NOT take this the wrong way at ALLLL!!!! I guess I sort of was under the impression that cocktail napkins and matchbooks were sort of 'out'
but i'm starting to see them more and more. I know its all personal choice and all - but I wanted to do a little survey to see who's personalizing them and who's just using their RH's .

all in the name of keeping up with the jones' :) lolol

I voted yes.

Maybe they are 'out', but I've been waiting 26 years to get them and I got them! I always thought they were soo cool when I was younger, and I always wanted them. So I ordered them and LOVE them.

Re: Cocktail Napkins

Yes, we are using them. Personalized ones are much cuter than plain napkins!

I like the idea but can't really spend the money for it.

Re: Cocktail Napkins

I am not doing them. I rather spend the $$ i would to get those on something else.

we're using the RH's. I do think its a nice touch, but chose to save the money for something else

I just read my post, and realized it might sound mean or sarcastic. I didn't mean it like that at ALL!. Sorry. I was just being silly. Like, I love them from childhood, so I'm getting them.

Sorry for the misunderstanding!

Re: Cocktail Napkins

honestly, i'm not willing to spend money on something that will get soiled and thrown away; i'd rather spend money on match boxes that will last longer than cocktail hour.

for those of you who are doing monogramed napkins, please don't be offended...this is just my opinion
