guestbook idea

guestbooks.
ahhh the book
where people write their name and address down.
so informal.
so useless.
sooooooooooo

i half brainstormed some ideas
some outrageous ones
some not do-able
some that maybe maybe I could do
if I had a lot of time
OR if I had a creativity streak

i went to an one year old bday party
(to clarify korean one year old party is a big deal)
and the mother had made multiple pre designed scrapbook paper
with pictures and quotes of the baby
and passed the sheets around
so people could sign their well wishes for the baby

i learned two things from this that I could incorporate:
1)the multiple sheets idea is great bc
nobody has to stand in line to sign one guestbook.
this eliminates ppl walking straight by the guestbook
and less waiting time.

2)by having more free space to sign well wishes
its a lot more fun to read than addresses.

so i took this idea and thought why not make predesigned
sheets of papers with our pictures where ppl can sign?
but then thats slightly vain.
so then i thought wouldnt it be cute
to get those Polaroid sticker picture ones
and have a "picture booth"
where they can post their pictures and comments together?

although ideal,
this would cost a lot more $$ plus time to organize
plus not as many ppl will be receptive
esp when we have 300 plus ppl coming

so then i brainstormed up index cards!
with simple name, address, and well wishes section.
multiple ppl can sign it at once
easy to keep track of, easy to make
(later, we can put a binder ring through it)

i turned to the creative jchongdesigns
and this is a rough draft
but i loves it!!
