Hey everyone,
Thanks to all of you for your suggestions on displaying foil balloons.  We 
are taking all under consideration.  Can't wait to see those mag movers at 
Ballooniversity!
Speaking of, I may be the only one taking the CBA exam on Friday- scary huh?  
Everyone else is taking it on Thursday- trying to think of the positive 
aspects of this and not freak out!
Congrats Theresa on passing the 1st exam.  For our neice's wedding we used 
hurricanes lamps with candles and I bought some grapevine wreaths to fit 
around the bottom which we decorated with some ivy and silk flowers to match 
some topiaries my sister-in-law got a great deal on.  Garden Ridge had some 
of the wreaths with the ivy already attatched for about 3 times the price of 
the plain ones and so I just used some ivy I had around the store- it doesn't 
take much.  Before the wedding (we planned months in advance) I used the 
topiaries and wreaths for a Christmas party by picking some pretty #40 ribbon 
and wrapping the wreaths and adding pointsettas.  For the topiaries, I used a 
longer piece of ribbon and ran it from the top of the topiary down into the 
base of the pot in a spiral and also picked in some pointsettas.  I think 
these have limitless possibilities for rentals.  Good luck.
