On Friday I introduced you to Yarn Engagement Buds. Here are those beauties in action. Here they are as part of the flowers at my sister's engagement party. Most people didn't even realize they were yarn and it was great to see them realize that they weren't what they expected.

(Also, seeing all these pictures of donuts just makes me want to wander down the street and buy a donut!)

Week 5: Engagement Buds or Yarn Buds

Happy Birthday Card

I love the happy birthday card.

Felt Monograms

Here is one of the crafts I did for my sister's (and husband-to-be's) engagement party. I think if I were to do it again, I would make the felt leaves even smaller although, that would be even more work. *Phew!*

I cut a bunch of felt leaves and then hot glued them down to poster board. I then glued those letters down onto a larger sheet of poster board I painted grey. There is soooo much hot glue gun action some days in my house.

I then taped the back of it (yes classy right?) to a wire coat hanger. This was so that I could hang it up on a wreath wrack on the door.
