My projects

When it gets cold outside I get really bored. I love doing projects, but haven't had any cute ideas for a while (I have, I just haven't had the money to do them). Since going through the temple, I have been wanting a big picture of the Salt Lake Temple to hang over my stairs. And for Christmas Ryan's parents gave us money to go pick out a picture. I finally went and found the perfect one. And I found a really cute vinyl saying to hang above it. It looks so cute. I was thinking that it needed something to go on the sides, so off to Wal-mart I went to find dried flowers to make some arrangements (which I have never done before). But they turned out really cute. After we got the picture hung, we hung the flowers and they looked like they belonged in a funeral home. I was so disappointed. I was so proud of my self for throwing them together with out any direction, and they didn't look good with the picture. I took them down and put them in my bedroom where they look awesome. Then just when I was getting bored again, my sisters-in-law all decided that we should wear a black dress with red jewelry to our brother-in-laws wedding (the colors were black, red, white). So, shopping I went. I went to Kohls, JCP, Target, Wal-mart, and online to a few other places and couldn't find any red jewelry. Honestly, no red jewelry anywhere. I just decided I would have to make it (something else I have never done). So, I went to JoAnns and bought a bunch of beads and made it my self. I don't love it, but it served it's purpose. The wedding was last Friday and it turned out gorgeous. I still have a few more ideas to keep me busy over the next few weeks before it warms up, I just need to head to the store to get started.

It says "Miracles happen to those who believe" And this picture doesn't do it justice. It is pretty big.
