I Enjoyed this Far too Much!

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…… Ok, last month at the house I used to live in. I read a post written by a woman who had too many business cards that she didn’t use up at BlogHer and lamented about what to do with them. She had an idea to mail them out to some very clever bloggers and have them do funny things with them. Somehow I was able to worm my way in and before I knew it, I had a couple of her cards. I packed them away safely so that I could move and then started to panic about what to do with them.
I finally had a great idea.. no I didn’t, I’m such a liar. It was Jim’s idea, but I needed cover to actually do it. Today Jim was off and I actually made my poor husband who works like 90 hours a week, come with me to keep watch while I executed my Jim’s evil plan.
I took her cards, and poked a hole in each one, threaded them with pink curly ribbon and an elastic band and… well, I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves. (As always, click for biggerized)
The manager came over and told us that we couldn’t take pictures of the product, but didn’t notice that we had added the tags. I don’t know if they’re still on the bottles, but I giggled like a 12 year old all afternoon!
So there you go Aunt Becky! This was fun.

Damn it! This is PERFECT! I’ve been trying to come up with a good idea for two weeks, and I’ve got nothin’. I’m creativeless. And now, I’m completely discouraged because this can’t be topped!

OMG woman did you really leave the cards stuck to the bottles!! Ack I am laughing my a** off. No way. But I have used calling cards for gift cards in the past. Great idea.
