Make-It and Take-It--or leave it

Thanks to Mary for that title--very clever. My life has been consumed with crafts this past week for our ward's upcoming Make-It and Take-It activity--similar to a Super Saturday. Here are some of the things we came up with to offer.

Canvas Quote Board

Ok, so quite a few people signed up for the brown/beige version of this. ZERO have signed up for the orange one. I like it--am I crazy for this? Maybe. What is your honest opinion on it? I am contemplating redoing it with something more boring--I mean, neutral.

Wood Block Calendar

My mom found something similar to this at Ben Franklin and figured we could replicate it. Turns out, with the help of my dad, we did it! Not exact, but close enough. Thanks mom (and dad)!

Glass Block Nativity

I know, I know...maybe this isn't entirely original. However, I am able to offer it to our ladies for a MUCH better price than you can find anywhere else. I might as well use my vinyl cutter for some good, you know?

Potholder Emergency Kit

No, it doesn't have vinyl, but it's fun! My SIL had one of these in her purse and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to make one--using my own choice of fabric. Cute, square, decent-sized, side looped potholders are sooooo hard to find these days. Sew some resealable bags down the center, stuff them with goodies, stick it in your purse/car and you will be prepared for anything. Well, maybe not anything. But definitely for a headache or nail snag.
