garland of the paper kind

So I found this at Project Wedding and although it is similar to the garland I posted earlier this week, it's different! :) This one is done up in with a vintage library feel to it.
You could make a mobile out of it, hang it as a backdrop, or swag it from a ceiling.
AND,
imagine it done up in other colors and styles of paper.
The options/creations are endless!

Mobile/Chandelier/Party Decor

This cute mobile would certainly work for use as a chandelier or any party decor. Can you see it hanging over the gift table or buffet for a baby shower?
Or maybe use a bunch of bold colors for a teen girls party.
And guess what I see??? Strings of these circles hung in a window or as a backdrop for just about any party!
A mobile doesn't have to be a mobile. :)
So, get creative, get cutting and have some fun.
Idea and tutorial found at Organize and Decorate everything blog.

Finally!

Good news! I have a new computer! :) Yay! Actually it's been here for awhile but it is just now all hooked up and working. Still thinking I should have gotten a laptop though. Guess I didn't think of it till this was already ordered....oh well.



So.....let's begin, with garland! :)This is sweet, unique and so creative. I found the garland and tutorial at tatertotsandjello.blogspot. And what a fun blog name. :)
And this is what she did with her garland.....now you might not have a storefront window to put it in, but hey,
I'm pretty sure it would work anywhere for most parties too.

Hearts not Circles

Oh this is sweet! :)
I've posted about the traditional circle chain garlands before, but have never even seen this type of garland.
Don't you think you should have one of these hanging in your window?
It's not too late to get this done before the big sweethearts day.
Head over to A little great blog to find the instructions. I
'm thinking this might be a project my 5 year old niece would love to do. :)

Leaf mobile


I must share this today...and I'd love to say I found it myself, but I didn't.
My sister in law (thanks Billie Jo) found it and knew I would love it.
Now it's way past fall and I don't think that you could find a good leaf anywhere around here this time of year, BUT....you could seriously use any shape your *heart* would love. :)
So go on over to The Toddler Cafe to find the instructions.
Make someone smile tomorrow with a sweet mobile above the dining room table.

Hey Mr. DJ


Well my computer is still crashed....a new one sits here in the box waiting for someone to put it together, but I can't wait any longer! I'm going to try to do some posting on this SLOW computer that I am using. :)

I've been doing alot of searching for Wedding stuff, since I am helping plan a Wedding. I will admitt, I'm getting a bit nervous and concerned that it will all be good. There is just SO much to think about. It might be time to start making lists.
I found these cool DJ Cards. What a great idea to give the DJ a card instead of yelling your song choice to him. This way, he can have it written down, go looking for it, and play it when it works for him to do so. I really like this idea and am hoping my niece and her fiance will go for it too. :)

Computer crash!

That's right.
My computer crashed.
I guess a new something or other has been ordered for it so that is good.
My posting will be a bit interupted during this time.
I do have access to a computer but all my stuff is saved on MY computer so we'll see and if all that stuff is not there once it is fixed, um,
I will be very very........
Grrr.

oh my

How's this for garland??
Now there are some very talented people I would say. :)
I almost feel like I should be making my words more colorful as I do this post because of all the life this garland and mobile show with their color.

All found on the small object...which is a really cool blog with unique ideas.


Here's my thought today......
"With garland, the possibilities are endless."

cause you can buy the kit in her Etsy store.
