Choosing Your Wedding Colors
Wedding dress, flowers, church, reception, cake topper, decorations, music AND wedding colors. Although it sounds daunting, choosing wedding colors is really quite simple.When choosing your wedding colors think about the different colors that you like most. You may want to choose a main color and one or two accent colors for visual beauty. If you really don't have a favorite color, think about the season that you're getting married in. If you're planning a spring or summer wedding go with pastels and brighter colors.
For winter ceremonies try darker purples and burgundies. You can also use red and silver for a more Christmas themed wedding. For a fall wedding, oranges, yellows and even reds can give a warm harvest feel.One thing to remember when choosing your wedding colors is not to overdue black. Although it is perfectly acceptable and popular to incorporate black into the wedding, over using it can give the feel of a funeral rather than a union of two hearts.Once you have chosen a main wedding color, you can always use a color wheel, which artists use to accent colors in paintings. Using a wheel will help you choose another color or two that will compliment your main scheme.Another way to simplify choosing wedding colors is to visit a wedding boutique store with your bridesmaids.
Choose a dress that looks good and everyone is comfortable in. Then ask the clerk what colors the dress comes in. By doing this, you will be narrowing down the colors to choose from. Once you decide on a color for their dresses, use this as a main color for your wedding.No matter what you choose for your wedding colors, this is a detail that will stick out the most with your guests. It will be the center and focal point of flowers, dresses and decorations.
So, be sure when you choose a color, you choose carefully and be sure it is something that compliments your wedding party and the atmosphere that you want to set for your wedding.Other possibilities to help you choose wedding colors are team colors, if you are a sports fan, colors that you saw used in your favorite movie or book, or maybe a time period that gives you that "loving feeling". You don't have to have a ?wedding theme' to have a ?color scheme'. Be comfortable in the colors that you choose.Another idea to help in choosing wedding colors is thinking about what the colors represent. For instance, blue is cool, relaxing and offers a calming vibe. Red reads vibrant and energizing.
Green is comforting, refreshing and tranquil, and yellow offers happiness and brightness, giving off an uplifted spirit.Choose colors for your wedding that will relate back to who you are and what mood you are trying to set. Be happy with what you choose because after all, this is your wedding..

A Visit from St. Customer... A Landscaper's Tale
A Visit from St. Customer... A Landscaper's TaleArticle by Copyright ? 2003 by ProGardenBizProGardenBiz, an online magazinehttp://www.progardenbiz.com'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the supply house,Not a creature was stirring, not even a pipe mouse;The orders were made in the office with care,In hopes that St. Customer soon would be there;The workers were ready all snug in their beds,While visions of giant sales danced in their heads;And the supplies were ready, the plants all so lush,The owners had settled in for the great new year rush;Then out on the lot there arose such a clatter,They sprang from their seats to see what was the matter.Away to the window they flew like a flash,Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.When what to their wondering eyes did appear with such luck,But a crew of eighteen landscapers and a giant semi-truck;With a little old driver, and hardly a cuss,They knew in a moment it must be St. Cus .
. . And so St. Customer bought out...

Shoppers spent more than $15.5 billion this Christmas on gifts on the Internet alone. Just imagine how many millions went to unwanted polka dot sweaters, electric nose hair clippers, and thigh masters. That wasted cash piled up under the Christmas tree. We've all had it happen to us. In fact, you had it happen to you this year.
You unwrapped the pretty red bow and tore through the shiny paper on that present from your Uncle Mortie, and immediately, you had to put on your best poker face.How did you know I needed a sushi roller kit?" you exclaimed with as much excitement as you could muster through gritted teeth.The problem is you don't eat fish sticks, let alone raw salmon.You can't be too sore at poor Uncle Mortie, though, and the other friends and family who gave you unwanted holiday gifts this season. Buying Christmas gifts is difficult work. Then again, getting rid of a doosie of a Christmas gift is no piece of fruitcake either. That is, unless you know how to use the Internet...

Rochester, NY, Woman Designs Educational Greeting Card for Quilters
Quilt Gift Card designer and writer Sue Carmichael says calmly, "I needed one and there wasn't anything like it on the market," when asked how she came up with the idea for her line of greeting cards made especially for quilters to include with a gift quilt.
Each of the six different card styles; wedding, baby, birthday, graduation, Christmas and a blank one has "The Anatomy of a Quilt"? printed on the inside cover which gives a synopsis of the quilt making process, defines some of the terms quilters use and gives the care instructions.
Each card can be personalized on the front with a piece of fabric from the gift quilt or with a picture of the quilt itself.
Sue explains, "My passion is quilting and I want the quilts I make to be used, not piled in a dark cupboard so the sun can't fade them.
I certainly don't need another quilt for myself, so I give them away as gifts.
I realized I wasn't telling the recipients how to care for the present...
