Lingerie Shower

So a couple weeks ago I hosted a Lingerie Shower/ Bachelorette Party for my best friend who was married this past weekend, August 4th. With the help of pinterest I came up with a bunch of ideas & decided it was time for some DIY projects.






The Invitations!!

 I made the invitations in Microsoft Word & printed them on a white shimmer card stock that I got from Archivers.



Chalkboard based Wine Glasses!!

I found the glasses at Marc's for $1 each then bought chalkboard paint from Michael's & painted the bases with a sponge brush.



The Banner!!

I used card stock, stickers & ribbon that I got from Michael's Craft Store. I printed out a triangle in the size I wanted & traced it onto the card stock then cute them all out. After that I placed the stickers that I found in the scrapbook section. Once that was done I used a hole puncher to get the holes then strung the ribbon through to attach all the letters.


Chocolate Corset Lollipops!!

I purchased the mold from a local cake & candy shop & bought pink chocolate & white chocolate from Walmart. I melted the white chocolate & put it in a squeeze bottle so I could outline the lace area. Then I just poured the melted pink chocolate on top.




I wasn't able to get a good picture of the gift I gave to her but I made her a gift basket. In the gift basket I included lingerie with a silk robe, a bottle of champagne, two champagne glasses & a doorknob hanger that said "It's Our Wedding Night".



Wedding Day Project!!


Bridal Party Yoga Capri's!!
(Sorry About the Feet)

I made these for all the girls in the bridal party to wear the morning on the wedding. I found the capri's at JcPenney's for $5 each & the iron-on from Pat Catan's for $2.99 each. All of the girls loved them.

Well I decided to start a blog to give me something to do while my husband is at work. Lately I've been all about DIY projects & baking so I decided this would be the perfect place to display some of the things I've done. Hope you enjoy!
