Re: Need wishing well for bridal shower

I know Wrap With Us has the big chair, I'm pretty sure they have the wishing well too.

Re: Need wishing well for bridal shower

ooh - i have a DIY idea for you for a wishing well...I did this a couple of years ago for a friends shower of which i was the MOH.

Go to target or BBB or someplace like that where you can find a clear storage bin - something kind square-ish or box-ish, with a deep lid. then get 4 empty wrapping paper rolls of all the same size. I just took the wrapping paper and rewrapped over another roll - and get some thick, wide white ribbon (any michaels or ac moore) - wrap each roll with the white ribbon (that's why you need thick, wide ribbon so you dont have to use so much). once they are wrapped, place one in each corner of the bin and secure with tape on the inside (i used white box tape). then place the lid over the rolls, it should rest at the top, so that there is space to put the gifts in. then i decorated the bin with garland and flowers, green ivy and such to make it look like a well - i put blue tissue paper at the bottom to look like water and hung a sign that said ' Wishing Well' - and voila, you have something that looks like a well, and doubles as storage for the bride! it was hit at the shower, sorry i dont have pics. hope this helps!

Re: Need wishing well for bridal shower

I just had my BFF bridal shower Sunday and instead of renting a wishing well and we'd have to return it I bought her a really beautiful Wicker Hamper with a striped liner inside from AC Moore!!!!! Everyone put their wishing well presents inside and all she had to do was bring her new hamper home!

Re: Need wishing well for bridal shower

I just had my shower and my bridal party made me a wishing well by getting a large laundry basket and they wrapped it in wrapping paper. It was a nice idea because then I got to keep the laundry basket.

Re: Need wishing well for bridal shower

here's one I made out of the hamper they had on their registry and the poles were a cheap broom and mop from the dollar store.....if you don't want to make it try your local florist. A lot of them rent the chairs and have wells.
