Pillows for the Sweet Retreat

The women on my mom's side of the family have an annual Sweet Retreat where we eat food, make crafts and socialize. This year I am helping with a throw pillow craft. I made three different pillows and I'll show whoever wants to how to make them. They're pretty simple, and I've received numerous compliments on them.

Corsage for Jake's Homecoming Date

My brother Jake completely made my day when he called and asked if I would make the corsage for his Homecoming date. Of course I agreed! After I hung up, I realized it had been awhile since I had made one, and suddenly I was a little nervous. But after some research, and a couple calls to some gals who had experience, I felt up to the task. I had a lot of fun shopping with Jake who handpicked the flowers and bracelet that would make up the corsage. I think it turned out beautifully!
