It seems like a thousand years ago that I shared my rehearsal invitations with y’all. Remember, the red and white checkered ones? In addition to all things wedding decor, we’ve collected tons of red and white checker decor for our BBQ. But something cute and “blog worthy” was missing amidst my dollar-store tablecloths and napkins. So, when Mrs. Mink offered to make us some of her lovely paper straws with flags…I jumped at the offer.

They are so, so lovely. I’m seriously obsessed with them. I wouldn’t have had time to complete this project on my own (because I am doing a lot of last-minute wedding DIY), so I was truly thankful that Mrs. Mink offered to do this lovely craft for us. They match everything perfectly!
Did you have any friends help you out with any wedding DIY projects?
Woo hoo! They are awesome! I might have had a little help from a Mrs. Doily! If only my pics were in so I can share!!!!! Woot woot!
I couldn’t blog them until the thank you card was officially in the mail!
These look awesome, love the red and white striped straws! So nice of Mrs. Mink to make these for you 
I want those straws…in gray so bad x_x. SO SO BAD.
If we don’t get them for the wedding I’m buying a bunch for my smoothies, lol. They’re so cute =(
They look great!!!
They are awesome (I’m using red & white paper straws as well!!!). <3
Cute! We hopped on the paper straw train, too! I don’t think I have time to make flags for them, though. Too many other crafts to get done with. Nice job, Mrs. Mink!
Mrs. Mink you rock!! I freakin’ love these straws. Too stinkin’ cute!!
@SuperDuperBrit: You can buy them on Amazon! I did! Super cheap, too.
