And while there are lots of tutorials on the web..I decided to make my own intepretation of them...

I used coffee filters and food coloring to make different colors...

And while they weren't exactly what we wanted for the baby shower....

I turned them into a banner with my tattered quilt that I've been recycling..

And now I have a soft and summery banner in our dining room..

I love the quilt and all the different colors...

And I'm happy to have another project made from the tattered quilt...

Baby Shower

In helping to plan the baby shower for my daughter,  I searched Etsy for baby shower games.

There are so many great stores and I spent quite a bit on time finding just the right package..

I bought this package from DUECOURI and was very satisifed with the fast response and turnround time to receive the pdf files....

I love all the pastel colors...the parents- to- be don't want to know the sex of the baby so I wanted to stay away from pink or blue themes....

Have you ever played Bingo where you fill in the spots?
It was a great game and made for lots of conversation and laughter..
Another great game we played was..


The Purse Game

and I had the most points!

I can honestly say that I didn't read the game card until everyone did..

I just happen to carry a big purse and have lots of things in it...

Picture of me and my girls...
It was a nice afternoon get together with family..

Next time your going to host a get together...
think Etsy..
there are so many wonderfully talented people with great products..

Don't forget about my giveaway going on now....
POP37 is graciously giving away one of her beautiful flowers.....
and I'm giving away a book from Country Living...
