Wedding Gift

 I got this idea for the invitation ornament on Pinterest
 Super easy , cut cut the invite up , roll it around a pencil, and place in the glass.

My invitation had a picture on the back , I wasn't sure how it would turn out , but it was fine , you really didn't see the back it just added some color.

Slip cover

You can almost see my new favorite bench in our old house . This was 5 years and 5 kids ago , well It was time for a redo . I just couldn't figure out what to do to bring it back to the way I loved it.


 Well those curtins that I had in my kitchen , that didn't work when we moved , and I changed style and colors , since then.
 This is inside out , I don't measure anything and not the greatest of a seamstress so I just eyeball things .


 I think it turned out pretty well . I spent two hours on it . that is about all I can do before I start to get bored or sloppy . I would like to have the buttons tuffted on it but I think once I get a tray or something , it will be great . The living room is in the middle of getting a makeover , more to come on this .

Carsyn's 5th Cowboy Birthday

 The invitation for the cowboy and cowgirls . Everybody got a hat and bandanna as they arrived .

 Snake toss , yes flying snakes they tried to get them in the bucket
 Panning for gold was a hit , I spray painted little gravel rocks gold and added then to the sand and water.


                                        Birthday girl

 Taking a break ,playing with her new cash register
 The Horse that Jim made for the party
 Morgans camp fire. Looks great. Torn up construction paper made the flames
 Paper plates. I cut out Happy Birthday on the Cricut and glued them on.

 More shapes cut out on Cricut, the sticker in the middle said Carsyn 5th , from Oriental Trading






Jim made one of these for all the kids . They got this as they left . I hope they had a good time . Thanks to Pinterest I got some great ideas.
