Crafty Time

I'm not gonna lie...the wedding has eaten my life and I'll kinda be glad when I can craft for the heck of it and not for this specific event.  But I've been feeling cruddy and it's raining today, so it was a good day to knock a few things out.
Project #1:  Pick a Seat, Not a Side Sign

 I found this crate on the beach a few weeks ago.  I couldn't find a pre-made sign I liked, so I made this one instead.  It's blotchy in places, and the first line is uneven, but overall, I love it.

 Project #2:  Chair Signs


I had leftover cardstock from the programs (which are only half done right now), so I had a friend make some stencils and painted these today.  I'll probably be angry at the crane placement later, but I'm definitely in "Don't care, just get it done" mode!

Project #3:  Door Hangers
mine :]

These were also made with the leftover cardstock.  I saw something similar on Etsy, but decided that I could make them easily enough.  They are far from perfect, but I think they turned out cute!  I didn't post a picture of them with the holes cut because that is REALLY imperfect, and I'm trying not to think about it!  There's a couple of things I've decided to make as well...but that's another post for another time!

You Remember That One Time?

The time where I asked for your opinions, and then totally didn't buy the necklaces you suggested?  Yeah, about that...but the good news is that a lot of your comments guided me. Beau....go look at xkcd.
