Who knew that one could get so excited about bows? Last Christmas season, I found some awesome polka dotted wired ribbon on clearance--perfect for pew bows!! I gathered up every ream that the stores had, and even went to 2 more looking to add to my stash.
One problem: Neither my mother nor myself know how to make pew bows. After a couple less than stellar attempts, my mom and I were destined to have to outsource the pew bows.
Enter Sue, a friend of the family.
"I know how to make pew bows...bring the ribbon down, I"ll figure it out!"
Last Thursday, my mom and Sue began working on the bows. My mom said they were cute, but sometimes, I worry when she says that, because we don't always have the same taste in things.
Luckily, this time, Mom was right.
Jim and I popped home for a day to meet with the minister, so Mom and I finished the bows while the boys went golfing.
Yay! Love how they turned out!
I think this is the last DIY project that we have to finish....but then again, I might come up with another new fun idea! :)
I also updated the aisle runner. I wasn't impressed with how our names turned out with the light pink paint.....so I painted over it with brown and added our wedding date. So much better.
New and updated................................................Old and Not Cool!
