Pantone Markers
I love the packaging on these pantone markers. They look so cool all lined up -- like medical records in a doctor's office or something much more scientific than a marker.

Made By One Girl
I stumbled upon these awesome books from Made By One Girl at Paper Boy a few weeks ago. They'd be great guest books, shower scrapbooks/guest books, or bachelorette party/mom-to-be/birthday girl gifts.
The online catalog contains a large selection of papers for custom orders:

Guest Book
Our guest book table was a hit at the wedding!
As you may recall, I combined a Blurb book full of engagement photos:
with Martha Stewart's idea of collecting anniversary messages*:
I swapped out plain note cards for ones gocco printed with our various wedding logos:
After the wedding, I ran the envelopes through my xyron machine and pasted them into the appropriate pages of the book**:
Our friends and family actually had a lot of fun with it. (Except for my mom who asked me two days later, "What guest book? You had a guest book?") We've even gotten a few in the mail from people who took cards home with them. We had a couple of guests that came up to us to announce that they'd be dead or in their 80s when we opened their cards. Which, how do you respond to that? "Well, then, I guess that you better hurry up and drink your miniature martini right now!"
(*I had some printer problems on my very last signage project - the guest book instructions. When I went to buy new stickers, Paper Source had changed the product. I never found time to figure out the new format, so I never reprinted anything. My DOC wonderfully printed out these instructions for me the morning of the wedding. When I was cleaning the Sunday after the honeymoon, I found a perfectly functional copy that I had kicked underneath the couch by accident. Oops.)
**I have heed caution to anyone else who is planning on doing this. The book is really thick with the envelopes - about 16". I'm worried about the binding breaking. I'd so some sort of spiral bound book withh large prints if I were you.

Martha-eque Guest Book Idea
Check out this memory jar from etsy seller jenniferaboston. What a great guest book idea. And it'll only set you back 30 bones. (Can you tell that I'm losing my DIYsire?)
