My internet friend Sarah at Life Sweet Life blog is hosting a link up today on Pinterest creations!
Our church is hosting a ladies' ministry craft day at the beginning of November. The idea is to invite our friends and neighbors out for a day of Pinterest crafts and sharing Christ with ladies outside our normal circles. I'm hosting one of many tables and was charged to come up with something fun to make.
As such, I perused Pinterest quite a bit "for the Lord," of course.
I like simplistic shabby chic-type crafts for the most part, and honestly I don't have the patience or time for things that take a long time. The crafts I came up with were so easy that I thought we'd make two at my table.
This first one is so easy that I thought we'd do a make one, take one. Each lady will make one for her own home and a second to give as a gift.

{I can't decide if I like this there, but for now, that is where it lives.}
18 inch quilting hoop with stretched burlap, stenciled. And I love it.
And for our second craft of the day, each lady will make one rustic banner with her choice of holiday phrase. I'll have give thanks, peace on earth, o holy night, and a few others from which to choose. I don't have a pin for this--I just like making banners for my mantle.
I made these up early so photos could be made for the sign-tables.
I'm excited--I love spending my Saturday socializing with a hot glue gun!

ReplyDeleteYou and Adrian should hop in the car and come on up! :)
DeleteThis sounds like so much fun! I made my own burlap nautical banner for a family member's baby shower and it turned out adorable :).
ReplyDeleteI am so excited about it! I love making these kinds of banners. I'm working on one for my house for football season right now.
