It's (one of )my MOST favorite time of the year!
SUPER SATURDAY SEASON!!!
If you are by chance unfamiliar with what I believe should be an official holiday, Super Saturday is a wonderful day of crafting, chatting, eating, learning, friends, laughing, and pure joy that is hosted by the Relief Society at
my church.
It really is just a "super" fun day to hang out with friends doing all kinds of girl things, and who couldn't use one of those? So what will we be spending our special day creating?
Let me show you...
(This post is being shared with the super fab gals from my ward, so if that's you,
please read the descriptions carefully and feel free to contact Dustie or myself with any questions you might have!
Also please note that we have chosen projects that we feel are VERY USER FRIENDLY, we don't want anyone to feel like you can't make any of these projects. If you have a question about something please ask, also we will be there all day on the 8th to help where ever needed.)
**If you choose a project that allows you to bring your own paper/paint contact me for the pricing difference.
For those of you not in my ward I will provide links where appropriate to the ideas we were inspired by and too, feel free to ask any questions you might have...
