Vintage Pink and Gold Paper Straws for Baby Shower and Weddings-Set of 25



Every one knows, when you are planning for a wedding or baby shower, you must have everything order.  From the flowers, decorations, cake...even right down to the smallest details such as cups and straws!

These unique and shiny straws are by Glitter Saturday on Etsy.  Glitter Saturday was generous enough to send me these straws for my review, and I must admit, these straws are actually prettier in person!  You get a set of 25, ranging from shiny gold chevron, gold polka dots, pink with polka dots and stripes.  


The straws are very sturdy, probably more sturdier than your actual plastic straws.  I didn't want to damage any of them, but I did try to squeeze one, just to see if they would give or smash...you know...being made of paper and all! Well, to my surprise, they did not give, crush or bend at all!  Now, I didn't go out to try to destroy the straws, but it would take some effort to crush them.


These straws are perfect for decorating slim vases at a baby shower or wedding, party or any special occasion...great for the pink and gold princess themed party.  You can even distribute them out into individual cups, making your guests feel extra special with their own decorated straw!


These are fun little straws that will add flair to any party, but not only can they be used as drinking or decorating straws, but can also be used to make creative cake pops and crafts!  The straws are 7 3/4" long, food safe, eco friendly and sturdy and they come packaged in a cellophane bag.


I love how the metallic colors of the gold on the straws reflect in the light.  So glitzy!  If pink and gold aren't your colors, Glitter Saturday on Etsy has tons of other colors, ranging from Pink Lemonade (pink and yellow), Bumblebee (yellow & black), Gender Reveal (pink & blue), 4th of July (red, white & blue) plus tons and tons more.  


Glitter Saturday also has confetti.  No, now your ordinary shredded paper confetti, but confetti that are shaped like round discs and sprinkled with shiny glitzy glitter.  These, too, come in various colors!

Go check out Glitter Saturday and discover what all Shannon has to offer.  The name of her Etsy store says it all!

ESK Collection: 9.5" Stainless Steel Drinking/Smoothie Straws (4pk) Review

Sometimes a plastic straw just won't cut it!  You know what I mean...You try to drink one of those thick shakes and your plastic straw's opening is just not big enough, or you end up bending and twisting your straw out of whack, just to get that first sip of your shake.  Then after the first use, you usually have to throw it away, because it's kind of hard to clean it in the dishwasher.



Well, I believe these 9.5" stainless steel straws are just the thing for those thick shakes.  The opening is larger than the average plastic straw, they are a lot sturdier and are dishwasher safe.  Not to mention, these will last forever!

ESK Collection: 9.5" Stainless Steel Drinking/Smoothie Straws, comes in a 4pk with two cleaning brushes.  Not only are these stainless steel drinking straws dishwasher safe, but you can also hand wash them, and get them clean on the inside, using the cleaning brushes that come with them.

Once you drink from these straws, the stainless steel gets cold, allowing you to enjoy your favorite beverage or smoothie.  There's nothing like feeling the straw get cold while you are drinking, as you don't normally get this experience from a thin plastic straw.  They are longer than most straws, 9.5 inches and can be used with quart jars or tall glasses.  They are 8mm bigger in diameter, allowing you to get the most from your drink.

I thought I would be the only ones to use these straws, as I didn't think that my son, nor my husband would be interested in trying the straws, especially since they were stainless steel.  WAS I WRONG!  The first day or two after I received these from Lily's Wineware, from Amazon, my husband wanted to try it with his drink.  Needless to say, he kept it the whole time. Good thing I had a 4pk!

If you want to experience the coolness and longer lasting straw, that has a 100% Warranty and will let you enjoy your drink, smoothie or shake to the fullest, you must check out Lily's Wineware on Amazon and grab these straws today!  The price of these 4pk Stainless Steel Straws are only $12.99, and you are getting FOUR  of them, with straw cleaners.  That's an awesome price for guaranteeing you will ALWAYS have a straw on hand!
