Wow! I can't believe how much you have done! Everything looks great! I have to get on with some DIY projects too!!

I got the fonts from 1001freefonts.com. The downloading is simple- just click the button. The hard part was unzipping the file and installing the font. I just googled what I needed to know. I ended up having to play around with my computer a bit to get it. I started to give you detailed instructions, and then realized that they would probably only make sense to me!!

So here's a peak at how my tea light candles will travel- I put the candles in the holders and put them back in the tube from Ikea- perfect!!

My project for the evening- makeup bags for my female guests. I got the bags and iron-ons at Hobby Lobby. I seriously went EVERY SINGLE DAY for a while and bought every bag with a 40% off coupon, as well as the larger iron-ons. The small bags came to $3.20 with coupon (plus $1 for rhinestone iron-on) and the large ones came to $4.50 (plus $1.90 for iron-on). Pretty cost efficient!! I literally bought every bag Hobby Lobby stocked, so I did the larger ones for my future MIL and mom, as well as my bridesmaids. I knew my daughter would have to have one too! I have one bag left for make, for the MIL. These were a little tricky to get down though. Because of the texture of the bags, I had to thoroughly heat the iron-on, and then immediately push the rhinestones into the fabric with gloves to get a good bond. It probably took 30 minutes to do them all, at most.

I have a TON of stuff to add soon!! BUT... my bridal shower/bachelorette party is this weekend and I am doing so much stuff for it, I don't have time to breathe!!! I guess that's what I get for being such a control freak.

 

I'll try to get to it on Sunday when I'm in recovery mode!
