Bathroom Basket Poem

tayto, 25 April, 2013 at 09:31 Posted on Planning 0 11

I'm putting together a basket of stuff for the ladies toilet and I wanted to put a poem beside it. However, all the ones I've seen either refer to aspirin or ibuprofen and, as we have small little people coming along, we won't be having those items in there. I'm probably over thinking it a little but I'd like a poem that doesn't refer to these - anyone got any suggestions please?

    I'd probably put a note saying 'Please help yourself' so they know on first glance it's for them.

    We had:

    Girls loo: We're so pretty, oh so pretty, we're vacant, yeah and we don't care (Pretty Vacant, The Sex Pistols)

    Boy's loo: Woke up, got out of bed, dragged a comb across my head (A Day In The Life, The Beatles)

    Probably not what you're looking for, though Smiley smile

    You're right, not quite what I'm looking for but yours are definitely original!

    Please help yourself to cosmetics and toiletries - we don't want you to ruin our photos.

    Hahah that is awesome!!

    We are doing a basket too and I will probably just write something simple and then have our names or something just so people know its from us.

    That's a great idea. What sort of items will you be putting in the basket?

    For anyone else that might be doing this and are looking for a poem - these are two options I've found!

    1.

    For our Guests

    To help you feel your best

    Just use a little to freshen up,

    And leave for other guests

    We put this together to help you alone

    Now take a min and get yourself

    Out there before the next song

    Compliments of the Newlyweds!

    2.

    For our Guests

    So happy you are here to share in our special Day,

    But should something go astray,

    Please help yourself to the contents within,

    Wet wipes, hand lotion or remove a stain.

    Use only what you need and leave the rest,

    It may also be useful to another guest.

    So repair the damage that may have been done,

    Then hurry on back and join in the fun!

    Compliments of the Newlyweds!
