Wish Bowl Guestbook

July 12th, 2008 @ 2:37 pm by Mrs. Tiramisu

A quick post just to show one of the many projects occupying my time this week- this was actually a really quick and really inexpensive one! Our take on the wish bowl guest book:

We thought it would be fun to have more that just wish cards… and I’m hoping we’ll get some funny responses:

Gocco’ed in metallic aquamarine, watercolor blue, and navy ink.

And of course I had to toss them all in the bowl to see what it will look like:

Those look great! What font do you use for the cards? I like it.

Where did you get the bowl? I’ve been looking for some nice ones to do a similar style “guest book”…I love that one!

I love the note cards! I want to know what font that is too….Thanks for sharing, it is a really nice alternative to a “standard” guest book.

lovely! we were going to do a similar bowl, but then decided to have the notes tucked into a french memo board. i love the different headers on the notes - should provide for some fun reading!

Thanks!

@KateMW: @future Mrs. Jones: The font is Albemarle Swash with some Albemarle Demo mixed in. I used something a little more formal for the invitations, but this is what I’m using for all the wedding day stuff. Miss Cupcake used it on her invites too! It’s my favorite!

i love the predictions, advice, wishes…super cute! We actually just bought a white electric guitar to have people sign as our “guest book” and it has now become the (okay, an) element I am most excited about!!

Thanks!

This is a great idea! I really like the idea of an alternative to the standard guestbook, but what do you do with the wishes/advice/predictions afterwards? Read and toss? or read and put in an album?

I plan on doing this and putting them in a scrapbook full of pictures of the guests. I love to scrapbook, so for me this was much better than having a plain old guestbook.

Instead of a glass jar, I found an old book that opens into a box at Ross. Ross also has glass jars of all types for those who are going the glass direction.
