Look what I did...

So I am going to start another regular post. I am going to post some of the projects I have been working on are have already finished.


I saw this on a blog forever ago and have no idea where I found it but thought it was cute! You just buy $store plates and candle holders to make this cute party tray.
I got the clear candle holders and spray painted them white and then used E6000 glue to to put it all together.
I think it is way cute and it was fun to have but here are somethings I would do differently next time. And there will be a next time! I need a pink one!!
First the top of the candle stick holders weren't level, so when picking them out check them to see if they are level. Next double check that your plates aren't warped at all.
I made this the night before Seth's baptism so I was busy and my dad was just sitting here doing nothing so I put him to work. So the next thing I would do differently is tell him not to make his "sharpie' marks so big when marking the center of the plates!!! Thanks Dad!! Also if you make one I like the bottom candlestick holder standing right side up and the next one is upside down.


Okay next up are these cute ctue flowers!! I have seen them everywhere but have yet to make them. My sis-in-law Jess showed up the other day w/ some in her hair so I quizzed her on her technique and away I went. I was making some invitations for a Young Womens activity and thought they would be cute on there. So now I have tons of practice and am ready to make lots of colors for my hair!!

And here is the cute invitation!! (see I told you I love making them!)
They were fun and I think they turned out cute. They are going in a clear 5x5 envelope!
