Back to Blogging AGAIN!!

Ok, yes I know I am supposed to be providing you with lots of unique ideas for weddings and events but once again life got in the way! I threw my back out over a week ago and got behind again. I'm back and I have tons of new ideas and new products to share with everyone!

First of all I want to share a slide show with you that I put together of items of have made over the past 10 years. These items are not listed on my website but I still make them upon request. I hope my designs will spark your creative imagination!!

Homemade Play Dough

Here is a "play dough" basket that my sister and I made for a school fundraiser.

It turned out so cute. You could take this idea and use it

for a gift or do it on a smaller scale for party favors.

She used homemade play dough, play dough toys, containers,

the play dough recipe, etc.

The possibilities are endless, GET CREATIVE!

PLAY DOUGH RECIPE:

1 cup of flour

1 cup of warm water

2 tsps of cream of tartar

1/2 cup of salt

Food coloring or unsweetened Kool-Aid packet

Mix all ingredients in a pan and cook over low heat stirring constantly

until play dough consistency is formed, about 5-10 minutes.

Back to Blogging!

Ok all you wedding bloggers, I had to take some time off of work but will

be back on track with lots of new ideas starting next week.

Have a great weekend, and please do something fun!! Life is too short not to have fun!! Oh yah, make sure you tell the special people in your life that you love them. You never know if they will suddenly leave you!

~Here is a preview of some of my new creations~

Need a break from wedding planning?

The holidays can be the most hectic time of the year. Top that off with planning a wedding and you have a recipe for stress. Fall is the perfect time to take a break and escape from all the pressure of everyday life. Blueridge, Georgia is my favorite place to go for a quick tranquill fall weekend. The shopping is wonderfull. There are galleries with spectacular handcrafted art, homemade fudge and candies, and unique items from the local community. I always get two bags of stoneground grits, one white and one yellow. Just outside of downtown, don't miss Mercier Orchard for the Apple Cinnamon Bread and the Cinnamon Apple Cider Donuts. About an hour from Blueridge in Tennessee is the Cherokee National Forest and the Ocoee Whitewater Center. A must see when the leaves are changing. Don't put it off any longer plan a weekend to relax and rejuvinate. Happy Traveling!!!
