I've noticed the ww, in some of the shower pics that have all kinds of cool stuff in! I've never seen this at a shower around here! I've only seen wishing wells at weddings to put money/checks into. Can you tell me about this tradition, and what gifts go into the wishing well? I like it!! Mary MOB

I had a BBQ wishing well....I LOVED it!!! We got soooo many great things!!

For my friends we did 'stock the bar' People brought things ranging from coolr funky glasses....stirrers.....alchohol etc.. etc....

My other friends wishing well was for guests to bring their favorite red wine

I wanted a tool wishing well since we are soon to be homeowners. My mom said no, so I passed that idea on to the girls at work.

Wishing Well gifts are great!!! Since my shower was during the holidays my mother had a small Christmas tree in the room and had everyone had tp bring an unwrapped Christmas ornament. So when i walked in there was a Christmas tree decorated with all ornaments for FH and I. It was very different and I LOVED it!!! So you can be super creative when it comes to wishing well ideas!!!!
