Re: Cry Packs

Oh, black and white. For some reason I was thinking your colors would have something to with PINK I remember a layout MS did before I got married that was all about using a sewing machine. She had invitations and various other accesories that had zig-zag sewing patterns and they looked really cool. By the time I saw them it was too late for me but it has stuck in my mind. Maybe a black pouch with white thread??

Hey Allure, you know there is bad blood between you and Theresa. Why do you constantly feel the need to instigate? I am sure you knew that your comment would upset her. Lets just leave well enough alone, shall we.

Re: Cry Packs

What a great idea! I never even knew about them.

I should get them (even if just for our mothers)

Re: Cry Packs

I have never heard of that before, but I thought it was a really cute idea.... Especially because EVERYONE and their mother knows how emotional I am even when I watch those hallmark commercials!!!! HAHAHA

These look easy. I think I want to do it this way. I think my mom and FH's mom and some of my mom's friends are going to need these.

Not to start trouble, but I agree that the guys probably won't use them. BUT, not because they aren't crying, just because even if they do cry, they're too macho to ask for a cry pack or be seen taking one from the basket.

I love the idea!

Re: Cry Packs

These are very cute! But is it me or does it look like napkins? Am I looking to far into it?

Re: Cry Packs

Re: Cry Packs

Hey Momma!!
I am getting them done for me. Laura with LA Productions will be doing them. They aren't that expensive and it is one less thing for me to worry about. I think they will be worth it.

Re: Cry Packs

I was going to do them, and I made a sample of one that said FOR YOUR TEARS OF JOY and showed it to a co-worker of mine. Her comment was ' oh, come on..get over yourself. Assuming people will cry for you. I think it's a little much.' I also asked my family and friends and they thought it was a stretch. Needless to say I dropped the idea.

I thought it was cute though.

omg.. sounds like my mother.. i think ill do them still cause i love the idea..

I doubt most dudes are going to be crying there. I'd never cry at someone elses wedding.

... thats why i think im going to have them handed out just to the ladies...

Re: Cry Packs

thanks lisa those look nice I will check out that site or I will wrap them like the other pic(sorry don't remember who posted it)For some reason I thought that it was actually an entire pack of tissue. Do the envelopes come in colors?
ETA: What size envelopes are they?

How rude!! This is why you don't tell people your ideas before hand. Everybody and their mother has to put in their two cents. Meanwhile, if you just did them, probably most people would think they were cute -- even HER!

I like NYLISA's!!! Those are so cute and simple!
