Napkin Obsession

My recent obsession is with napkins.  I honestly figured we'd have paper napkins to go with our paper plates and our very, very casual wedding (read dance party!).  But, look at how these napkins POP!  I love, love, love the look!

My first thought was, I can sew 200 napkins and it can't be that expensive.  Nevermind that I don't sew nor own a sewing machine - it will be fun!  Plus I have seven months.  In searching for fabric I found nothing I liked.  Nothing that fit this new obsessive bill.  Until I went to Stitches, in Capitol Hill, where they had tons of fun stuff and the lady was super, super sweet.  She even helped me determine napkin size, how much material I'd need and later helped me determine that after $1000 (for the super cute material - figures!) and all the time, time and more time it would take me -it's just not worth it.  $1000 for napkins is not in this girls budget!

Now, the boy and I are thinking about screen printing something...but we need a "theme" first.  Stay tuned!
