Good shower idea

Got this in an email, thought it was a good idea for those of you planning showers! I might just pass it on to my BMs.
Getting a head start on thank-you notes. This one's from bride Suzanne T.: Have guests write their address on thank-you note envelopes, then pick one at random. The one that gets picked wins a prize--and the bride gets a head start on writing those notes.

Wonderful idea i did that for my MOH'S baby shower

Thats a nice idea!

I made a shower once and part of the wishing well gifts were preaddressed/stamped thank you cards.

Here's a great idea - I did this for one of my BM's who is getting married on May 9th:

A Basket of Candles


A basket of candles that come in a pair
Of all different colors for you two to share.

The White ones burn first, they are wrapped in white lace.
To celebrate the first night in your new chosen place.

The Mauve ones are taller & much, much thinner.
They burn with your first company over dinner.

There are candles to burn Christmas Eve before bed.
Your first Christmas together…. That is why they are Red

The Navy candles are for your very first fight,
Use them to burn when you are making up – ALL NIGHT!

Pink candles will set the mood and pave the way,
For your very first Valentine’s Day.

Now when your first year of marriage is through
The Cream anniversary pair will light for you two.

By this time we hope that maybe, just maybe
You could burn the Yellow ones on the birth of your baby.

And just when you thought you could put these away,
Take the Light Blue ones out for your fifth anniversary day!

Now just one pair left for the big “25”
The Silver anniversary pair that will keep you alive!

So CONGRATULATIONS both of you on the start of your forever
May the two of you always be happy together.
Now burn these candles just the way we said
But please, HIM & HER, don’t forget….
Blow them out before bed.

They're both really cute!!!!!
(I would totally cry if I got the candles at my shower)

I love the basket of candles idea! That is great! But, I would definitely lose the 25 year candle before our silver anniversary! LOL!
