I LOVE useful gifts,
and when I look at a wedding registry,
I always end up in the kitchen stuff.
Maybe because I like to cook, maybe because they have signed up for things that I use myself and find it useful and necessary.
and when I look at a wedding registry,
I always end up in the kitchen stuff.
Either way, I end up buying those gifts.
Lately I have been going the extra step to add something "homemade" that I know will be special to the couple.
The bride has traveled to Italy several times, and loves Italy.
(who wouldn't?)
So I asked her what is her favorite Italian city (or cities).
Then I got to work.
I made a set of napkins
and a couple of towels, all to be added to a "kitchen theme" basket.
Since lately I have been into numbers, I searched for meaningful years related to those specific cities.
Obviously for the Verona napkins set,
I HAD to add the year in which Romeo and Juliette was published. Thank you Shakespeare!
Stay Frugal,
Daniela
