You know what you can handle, so go with your gut feelings about it. I'm sure whatever you decide to do will be fine and look very nice.
Thanks pastda3. I'll let you know how it turns out!

I order mine from silkletter.com or inkhead.com. I had a similar experience with discountmugs.com. I had about 100 orders for Christmas ~ and I did not even get an email telling me they were out of stock/backordered. By then it was too late to order from somewhere else. I was also able to find them, with colored straws, at kitchen collection - they cost a bit more, but it saved my Christmas season. Good Luck to you!

Heather, the hanging tag with the logo sounds great, and if it will reduce stress why not go for it? All of your ideas for this project sound wonderful. I'm sure that everyone will be really pleased with your work. Good going!

Thanks so much for the input and advice! They turned out great. I was soo busy pulling this whole luncheon together on my own that I forgot to take pics.

The cups ended up being a bit too large for the regular treat bag cellos but by chance, my aunt gave me some awesome large cello bags that she's had for ages and those worked perfectly. Once the cups were filled and wrapped, they looked quite nice if I do say so myself.

We had open house at the school last Thursday and as I went from classroom to classroom, I noticed the acrylic cups sitting on each teacher's desk. Made me soo happy to know that they actually use them. Again, thanks for all the help... I was in a real panick for a bit!

Thanks for the update Heather. I was wondering how everything turned out. Sounds like the tumblers were a hit. I'm sure you're glad that's behind you. Hopefully you'll get to take a breather for now.

I can't wait till summer to try all of these great things the rest of you are doing. The tumblers are a great idea. Need to get some of that vinyl ordered.
