High Tech Doggies

I'm so excited! Today we received new dog collars for our boys (our dogs). They are hand made with perfection by Etsy shop Big Doggy Bling. These are the most fashionable collars for both small and big dogs. Our dogs had a fit when we unwrapped them and as you can see are sporting them in style.

Delicious Wedding Favor Ideas:

We're excited to share with you some unique and delicious ideas for your wedding. They make great favors and are functional too. We found this one on Etsy.com, our favorite place to shop. Lori’s cookies came packaged very cute and individually wrapped with a bow. The wedding cake cookie was decorated with perfection and ready to hand out as a favor. We only ordered one wedding cake cookie, but Lori was nice enough to send us four other cookie varieties to try free.

They are beautiful and taste as good as they look. I especially like the chocolate covered strawberry cookies, they are creative, attractive, and of course tasty. Lori does more than just sugar cookies, so you can get a nice variety; the peanut butter sandwich is very rich and yummy. What Lori says about her cookies “I use the best ingredients, no preservatives & Caribbean Extracts for more intense and delightful flavors”.

Also, our Personalized Wedding Ornaments from Just Wright Boutique were suggested as a personalized gift for the bride and groom.

JWD Paperie Sample Requests

Last week we added a new button to our invitation website, JWD Paperie. We were so excited about our 'samples' button where you can request free samples. We only had one problem; our web designer didn't code the request form properly. As we were traveling this weekend I was getting requests on my iphone email however I wasn't getting their contact info. I was so frustrated because that's not something that can be fixed on an iphone. I'm so sorry!!! We fixed the problem as soon as we arrived to the hotel Friday night. If you requested samples last Thursday or Friday please send the request again. We have fixed our site and apologize for this error. If you haven't requested samples yet, please do because we'd love to send you a sample of our work. Samples can be requested at this link http://www.jwdpaperie.com/pages/samples.htm Stay tuned. I've been working on some really fun invitations that are very affordable. Pictures will be up sometime this week along with the details of our first blog contest.

Happy New Year!

Welcome to my blog. My employees have been telling me for years “you should start a blog” and my response always was “I don’t have time”. So I’m making it my 2009 goal to blog. I’m excited to share my stories, my inspiration and creative ideas with you. If you have a unique idea, a fabulous find or anything else you want to share just let me know and I’ll do my best to blog about it.

A little about me: I own Just Wright Designs®, LLC with my amazing husband, Jeff. We have six animals, two yellow labs, one dachshund and three cats. I was raised in Florida but now live in Texas. I love beaches and all things tropical. I love to entertain, decorate and paint anything. I love weddings and parties and would get married over and over (to the same man of course) if I had the money.

About Just Wright Designs®, LLC: Jeff and I founded the company in late 1999 and started in the baby gift industry. I painted personalized crosses, birth plaques and foot print platters for local gift shops. Today most of these products can be found on our gift website, Just Wright Boutique. In 2003 we introduced Celebration Signature Plates® and were blessed with success. We offer hand painted guest book platters as an alternative to the traditional guest book. New for 2008 is JWD Paperie offering stylish wedding and event invitations. I hope you enjoy my blog. Stop by often because in the next few weeks I’ll be featuring a real wedding of a good friend of mine.

A few pictures of our pride and joy.
