My project last week was my new aisle runner. I know... I made one before, but it turned out too small so I decided I'd use that one for my cake table and make a larger aisle runner! The runner is 50 feet long and about 3 feet wide, so this L is much bigger, almost two feet high.

I first placed the L under the aisle runner and positioned everything where I wanted it.

Next, I traced over the design with my markers.
After it was traced, I filled in with black and glitter...and TAH DAH!!!!! Yes, I am obsessed with glitter. i am aware of this.


The weekend before last Lonn's mom came in to visit us and she brought the pillows she's been working on for the wedding. These pillows will sit atop black slipcovered cushions that Lea is also making. They are so CUTE! THANK YOU LEA!!!


Have you ever seen the "People of Walmart" emails?? Well, that's what came to mind when I mosied into Walmart and loaded up my basket full of these little beauties. There is a swimming pool at the venue, (although you can't swim in it!!) so I thought the perfect little addition would be some added color in the pool!

Well its pretty much been glitter mania around here! I bought a bottle of glitter and quite honestly haven't been able to control myself. STEP AWAY FROM THE GLITTER Dyna!


This is me finishing up our cake topper...

And this is Lonn kindly being Vanna....he's such a trooper! But the topper turned out great!

My most recently completed wedding project is my wedding banner/scroll. Instead of the traditional 'ring bearer pillow' for my nephews to carry, I opted for a banner. It took about two hours to complete. This was such a fun easy project, here's how I did it.
What I used:
22"x26" banner (I used material left over from my isle runner that I bought at Michael's)
Sharpie paint pens, various colors; fine and medium tip
ribbon
wooden dowel (36")
fabric glue

1. Begin with your design. I made each design and printed them as tiles then taped them together to create my template.

2. Next I Put my banner paper over this template and traced the design.
3. Once the design was on, I looked and thought it need a little more, so I added pink glitter to the L.
4. I then added my ribbon on each side. Using the fabric glue, I attached the ribbon to each side of the banner, leaving about 2" at the top and bottom so that I could fold it over later for a clean look.
5. Once it dried, I folded the top pieces of ribbon down over the dowel, measured and fastened with more fabric glue.

6. While that was drying I added a third piece of ribbon as the bottom border and let that dry.
7. Once all the ribbon was dried and attached, I folded the extra end pieces and glued in place.
All done!...except, I'll do something to finish off the dowel... probably wrap in ribbon or at the very least paint it. I keep looking at it thinking about what else I could add!
