Nifty Thrifty Tuesdays No.66 and a Winner

Hello ladies...I hope all of y'all had a wonderful weekend  and were able to stay "cool" in this summer heat. I spent Saturday with my girls in Birmingham...did some shopping and picked up Haley's wedding dress for her bridal pics that she will have made on the 15th. Sunday was spent making and addressing invites for her bachelorette/lingerie party that is being given by her maid of honor and that would be her little sister Mary Claire. A weekend at the beach with all the girls, now doesn't that sound like a lot of fun? Get this...I'm not invited...yes the MOB will be staying home...just where I belong...way too old for this type of weekend. We also started addressing the wedding invites and I'm very pleased with how they are looking (thank goodness). So are you wondering what thrifty ideas or treasures I have to share this week? I used some cute palm tree invites for the party that I found at a garage sale about a year ago...they were only $2 for a box of 50. The second thrifty idea I'm sharing today is...we are printing all the addresses and names for the wedding invites on our printer...Haley went with a beautiful font...so why pay for a calligrapher when you can get the look or less!!! I wish I could share the invites with you, but for privacy reasons, I better not. Okay now all of y'all know what I've been doing...let's now here what you have been doing...join the party and let's all have a good time here at NTT! Oh my...I almost forgot to announce the WINNER of that cute Ribbit the Frog Scentsy Buddy...the WINNER is Susan from Susan's Hearts and Flowers...congrats Susan and thank you Tracy for donating this cutie pie! Here are a few of my favorites from last weeks party.
                                                         Happy that you came by and
                                                         hope that you will come again,
                                                                             Linda
