Projects in Progress

This weekend I was in very much a wedding planning mood. I felt less like blogging and documenting and more like actually accomplishing projects—that's a good thing! But now I need to step back and think about the projects I started, all the crazy ideas I have, and what I have left to do. I don't want to go all list crazy on you, but here's what I have so far...

  • Crossword Puzzles—almost done, just have to do the final proofread and print! Oh and for these I also bought 120 pencils... unsharpened. That was fun.
  • I Spy—these were done but then I had the idea that I wanted to do several different versions to (hopefully) get a wider variety of pictures, so it's still in progress.
  • Coloring pages—this is a new one! I started thinking about giving the kids something else to do (since clearly they'll be too young to do a crossword puzzle). I bought ten packs of crayons for less than a dollar each and am working on coming up with some wedding related coloring pages. I'll write a post about this when I'm done!
  • Tissue paper poms—I finally came up with my flower inspiration! This isn't something I've touched on before, but from the beginning I was interested in making my own flowers and floral decorations, since flowers really aren't in the budget. A post on this is coming up this week for sure.
  • Scrabble letters—I scoured eBay (ahem, clearly I have an eBay obsession) and found 300 tiles that should be arriving in the next two days! Can't wait to start working with these.
  • My wedding binder—ok, so this one isn't actually a wedding craft. But this weekend I did get all of my wedding stuff organized in one place. And I had to make it pretty of course! I cut apart some old bridal magazines and made some themed pages. Maybe I'll have to take some pictures later! I might be a little too excited about this.

As you can see, there will be a lot of craft posts coming up! I also need to do an updated catering post and talk about registering for items. So here we go!
