Make Your Own Napkins!


Yes It could be as easy as ironing napkins!

For no cut napkins you could buy fat quarters.

For no sew napkins use heat bond hem tape.

Or do it the good ol old fashioned way like me

Both sew and no sew Tutorial by stone gable

This project is seriously taking forever! I found some gold satin at a thrift store. I paid pennies a yard. If you ever had the pleasures of working with some kinds of satin...like ribbon it unravels very easy. I had to heat seal every raw edge. This was such a pain! The napkins look fantastic but, if I would do it again I would use cotton.

Eloping Valentines Day!

He asked me a week ago if I wanted to get married on valentines day. I said yes! So we are going a head and getting married at the same church we will be renewing our vows at with family. How romantic :P....So Trying to make this happing is a crazy big headache. He has to buy his tux tonight. I need to buy another dress! I have been freaking out trying to find one in our budget. I hope I can make this happen the way I pictured it!

I mailed out my save the dates today

I have been a busy lady for the past few weeks DIYing up a storm. I mailed out my save the dates today! Unfortunately I got stuck with poler bear stamps.  Darn post office. I ordered the postcards free from vista print and just paid shipping.
