I’m always on the lookout for unique products that I can customize for my wedding. So when I ran across Name Maker’s products, I was intrigued. Name Maker offer a variety of customized items, and cater to brides with an assortment of wedding favors, gift wrap, and personalized ribbons, stickers, and labels. They offered to create a complimentary set of customized woven labels for me, so I decided to have them printed with the phrase Our Wedding Day, Jay & Beeb. For the designs, I chose this charming bird label and this label with hearts.

When my package arrived, I was eager to see how my labels turned out!

Aren’t these just adorable? I’m thinking that I’ll probably have these sewn into the bridal party’s outfits – wouldn’t that be a cute way to add a personal touch to the clothes? These could also be used to decorate gifts or favors. Either way, they will add a sentimental touch to help my loved ones remember this special day long after it passes.

Name Maker’s custom woven labels are available online, starting at $16 for 20 labels.

One afternoon, the postman knocked on my door with a package. “Are you the one who gets costumed?” he asked as he handed it to me. “Am I the one who gets what?” I asked, not sure what he meant. He pointed to a sticker on the box that said, “Stand Up And Be Costumed.” Well, it looks like I am the one who gets costumed!

The package was from Savers, who had sent me a complimentary box of Halloween supplies so that I could get into the spirit and, yes, Stand Up And Be Costumed! To help me get a head start on the season, they included this hilarious Jersey Shore Girl Wig:

Savers predict that Jersey Shore will be a popular costume this year, so they included a makeup tutorial to go with the wig so that I could “Embrace this costume situation!”

I never tan, and my skin is very pale as a result. So the first step was to apply foundation that was about five times darker than my usual shade, and top it off with loads of brown blush – similar to the makeup I did for my Lindsay Lohan costume last year! Next, I penciled in my eyebrows, added heavy brown eye makeup and thick black eyeliner, which I angled out for a cats-eye effect. I topped it off with lip gloss, big jewelry, a leopard print dress, and the huge poofy wig from my Savers kit!

So what do you think of my Snooki impression?
