We had another fun Relief Society , this was a Visiting Teaching Survival. it took place on a Airplane , we had water and trail mix as they arrived . Everybody had a bag in front of them with some Visiting teaching survival handouts , and a new Phone book. We served a light dinner in a to-go box , a video (in flight movie) and some great talks about visiting teaching.Iam so thankful that I have a crew to help me out on the tickets, handouts and food.

Cake stands and Relief Society Party

 Her are the finished cake stands. I started out with plywood tops and planned on adding trim , well that turned out to be a bigger project that I had planned . We ended up going with MDF and using the router on the edges , the large is 10inch and the small is 8 inch . 6x6 routed base came from a piece of pine.The table legs are from Home Depot  but I think Lowes also has them.Painted everything white. I love how they turned out. I got the idea here. From Pinterest

 Relief Society Party

 My friend made the sugar scrub. Used baby food jars and spray painted the lids.

 Potato bar

 I used scrap paper on the cake stands to mach our colors for the night. Looking at the pictures I wish I had put the blue ribbon strip on top of the yellow fabric napkin.

 IKEA frames . My daughter cut the numbers on the Cricut

Another crafty friend made these bird houses.

Weekend projects

 My $35 yard sale find. Cant wait to get this done and filled up.

 cake stands I started , Iam going to do a bigger base and router the top edge ,which means I need more wood .I used a thin plywood and started putting trim around it but , we aren't good at the mitered corners and it was just not going well. I am making 10 for a Relief Society dinner . If I was just making 2 the trim would have been fine . Just something that I need to get better at .

This is the hardware for my new front window curtains, can wait to get this up . I have so many project going right now I cant get anything done . Relief Society is next week and I have so much to get ready.

Valentine Dessert table

We had a Relief Society meeting last night . My board and I make all kinds of sweets, it was so much fun. So many of the ideas came from Pinterest, which I do love. It sure does help me when planning and decorating for a activity , or party. If nothing else it makes you start to think about things you could do .
