Men's Christian retreat table decorations

Helping out with a men's retreat by creating a table 

decoration which illustrates the theme.

It was a struggle to come up with an idea, 

but here is what I have.

The theme is Lay Your Burdens Down.

This first picture is a man carrying 

heavy burdens.

 This next one is the man laying the burdens 

down at the cross.

 This last one is the man praising God 

for taking those burdens.

 Here is a side view of the triangle, and 

for those who want to know each side 

is the size of a piece of printer paper.

It's made with heavy poster board for the 

silhouette frames, tissue paper for the colors, 

clear plastic inside to prevent puncturing the 

tissue paper, and it's all just taped together.

 And, inside is a string of micro LED lights hung 

on a couple of strings.

Have a great day!!  :)

Jessica's purses for Caitlyn and Bethany

Caitlyn's purse. The material is almost a satin, brownish, greenish, blueish, goldish(it depends on the direction you see it and in which light). It has a really cool gold bead and cord trim and pockets inside.

And here are the 2 finished products. Bethany's on the left and Caitlyn's on the right.

Bethany's pockets are on the outside of the purse and her's is monogrammed.

Pretty great for a first time sewer!!!

Here is what I have been working on for July. I want to have as many as possible to use for donations during our Jamboree. I used to make these zipperpulls forever ago, but I can still make them each in a half hours time and I got these 5 done today.

Zipper Pulls

I used to make these for a lot of kids and have plenty of supplies left just sitting around so I was inspired to make up more zipper pulls, keychains, and dragonfly pins(I will have pictures of all later) and sell them kinda cheap and give all the money to God for a youth ministry for our kids at church. The church is small and God provides, but what better thing can I do with a ton of supplies just sitting around??? You can't out-give God! :)
