CARD BOX

First you need a box of your choice with a lid.

Second you need a adhesive and some fabric

First you want to spray one side at a time and use a credit card to smooth out the bubbles. Go all the way around but leave the bottom alone.

After going all the way around cut off the extra and glue it. That will make your one and only seam, it;s hard to see mine in the picture. Spray some on the inside and fold the fabric the inside. Then flip it over to the bottom and cut the rest of the fabric off it does'nt really matter what it looks like cause it's just the bottom. Bottom right is the bottom.

I had a card laying around and i measured it and lined it with a pen and used a razor to cut the slit in the lid. Then spray the top and use your card to get the bubbles out.

As for the corners I folded them just like wrapping Christmas gifts

Just like the box I glued the insides down.

Then I got a the razor and cut the fabric
and spayed the back side and
folded the fabric on the bottom you can see it
in the picture above.

Then I added some ribbon a old buckle I got at a antique store on my way from ND to GA.

Last I went to Micheal's and bought 3 different papers the gray is very glittery and printed out the word 'cards' from my compter.

The last picture I used left overs to make a matching Menu for the drinks at the bar.

My Purple Crinoline

Fist i bought 3 pack of the Rit color Purple

Boiled lots of water. I even used the tea pot :)

While it was boiling I sent ahead and gave my Caroline a shower in warm water.

I then filed up the bucket about 1/2 way with water and added the 3 packs of dye and stir until dissolved

Then i added my Caroline (scary) you like my stir stick lol ( it worked)

Then i just stirred it ever 5 to 10 minuets for about a hour.

I did'nt feel like walking through the whole house with a wet dark purple mess so i put it in a cloths basket and rinsed as much off as i can outside.

Then i took it inside and gave it a cold shower until it ran clear (10 mins). Let it dry and BAM!!!

I just love how it came out it was PERFECT and matches the other color purple stuff I'm using for the wedding

Aisle Runner

Well fist I printed out everything i wanted R and names sized them up like 1000X and taped it down to my table.

All i did was get a dull pencil and traced careful not not move it to much or you'll mess it up. I did this with are names and the "R"

To be continued....
