Well it took me a few days, but I am starting a new thread for this topic. I went back and used Tasha's templates (Thank you) and updated the pictures. I have included the Fall 2007 products and the New Spring 2008 pictures. It includes all the products and new prices that will be in the March catalog. I'm sure I missed something or made some error, if you notice just let me know and I will change it.
Here are some of the tips that people had shared when this topic came up before.
These are used at bridal showers to make it easy for the guests to pick which things on the bride's wedding registry they want to buy for her. If your bride wants more than one of an item you may want to print 2 labels. Print off a hard copy of her wedding registry so you can cross things off as they are ordered for her at the shower & this will make it easy to go in and update the registry after the shower is submitted.
I think these are for avery shipping labels 8253 or 5163 will work but have not tested. - you might want to print one and take it to the store to check against real labels.
Below are pieces of advice others have given on how to use these.

I then put the dowels in the green foam stuff (not sure what the name is) and put them in a pretty white basket. When the bride tells me what items she wants I make sure those are the product cardstock I have in the basket. Then at the shower I pass around the basket and the guests just take the products (card stock and dowel) out of the basket and gives it to me at checkout. It works handy. I hope everyone understands this. Let me know if you have questions. Good Luck!Brenda K.

This way there are no duplicates and people can give what they feel they can afford, or go in with others, or whatever. I emphasize in my showers that they are helping the bride by not only purchasing gifts for her but by buyng things for their own kitchen, and ask them to give me the card they chose with the order for their kitchen. I then draft someone at the payment station to make a receipt for the bride with her gifts, and on their order I add what they bought for the bride and circle it, so they know what was theirs and what was hers.Nancy Collins
