Stamina - Necessary!

Yesterday, a great group of ladies created personalized coat racks and growth charts, just in time for school to begin (did I really just say that - where has the summer gone?) Our color bunting was hung and the paint bar was stocked and ready to rock-n-roll!



Before we began to craft, though, we snacked on irresistible chicken lettuce wraps, Asian salad, sandwich spirals, chips and salsa, fruit, and magic cookie bars - YUM! Partaking in these energy-fueling dishes was a must - this craft required stamina and a steady hand.  



These ladies were up for the challenge!  After selecting their colors (that's the hardest part), they got to work.  Jessica and Heather were inspired by a project they pinned on Pinterest (my favorite site) and we worked together to achieve something similar (later you'll see that they turned out great!).  The chevron pattern was also very popular.  I've gotta admit - one of my favorites too!












































One funny story from the night: As I was walking by, I noticed one of the glasses contained a blue liquid.  I first thought to myself, "What did we serve that was blue - I thought we just had water, tea, and lemonade? Did they bring their on drink? Oh man!"  Then I said, "Is this someone's drink?"  Brie chimed in, "That's Jessica's water that I washed my paint brush in!"  HAHAHA - It was bound to happen!  Hazards of crafting :)



Can you spot the change?
(Sorry Brie and Jessica - It's funny!) 




















Ladies, your projects turned out wonderfully - fun, colorful, and full of love and personal touches!  Thank you for coming to our party and crafting with us!  It was great to connect with friends and meet new friends!  We hope that you enjoyed yourselves and that you'll come back and craft again soon!
