Crafts.....







I must say I have been pretty proud of my crafts that I have made lately. The family home evening board was done a couple of months ago for enrichment. It didn't take long so it was pretty easy, however the give thanks and the family wall hanging is a different story. I made these during super Saturday, and it took a total of five hours. You see, I made two of everything, when my sister heard of the cute things we were making, she said sign me up and I'll come too. Well she ended up not being able to come, and since I had already pre-ordered I said well I'll make yours for you too. It wasn't but three minutes into the first project when I thought(and actually didn't stop thinking till I was done) "what have I gotten myself into?" It was so time consuming and the details were extreme, and I now dislike mod podge, for those of who don't know what that is, it's pretty much like glue and if you don't do it right then your project is done for, or you spend the next 45 minutes or so trying to get the bubbles smoothed out. After all the work(and I must admit the not so kind words I said in my mind) was done it turned out very nice, so I was happy.
