Table Number Tutorial

On Saturday, February 2nd, the Leona Valley Community Queens held a Bunco night to raise funds for the upcoming pageant and scholarships. It was such a fun night! We not only played the game but we also had a 50/50 raffle. Prizes were awarded and money was given to the raffle winner. Everyone had good fantastic time! Thank you to all who came out and supported.

Aren't these girls gorgeous! We have great contestants this year.

On to the tutorial... supplies you will need:
- a ruler
- scissors
- pencil
- permanent marker
- card stock (2 colors, my white ones were old Christmas cards a friend had made. Reduce.Reuse.Recycle!)
- some sort of adhesive (I just had these dots)

{supplies}

First, decide how big you like to over all number to be. Cut your base color card stock to the proper card size (to create a "tent" when it stands). Decide how big you would like the card stock that number to go on will be. Cut.

Second, before adhering the smaller paper, write your numbers (or use a stencil).

Third, adhere your numbered card stock and now your table numbers are ready for use!

Do you have any events or fundraisers coming up? What sort of DIY things have you made for it?

High Five for Friday

I'm linking up with Lauren at From My Grey Desk for High 5 For Friday.

ONE. Skype.

The hubby and I were able to Skype. It was so nice to "see" him and how things are progressing there. He said that he couldn't be in a better living situation. He is staying in a studio on his supervisor's property. His supervisor and her hubby are very welcoming and kind! He is also loving his co-workers. And even tried out a church!

TWO. Soup.

My dear friend is pregnant and caught a nasty cold. I decided that was the perfect opportunity to make chicken noodle soup from scratch. It was my first time making any soup and it turned out DELICIOUS!

THREE. Pageant Success.

The first practice for the Leona Valley Community Queen's Pageant was a success! All of the contestants are great! I'm excited to be a part of encouraging and growing these great young women.

FOUR. Healthy Pets.

Mojo went to the veterinarian, a.k.a my dad, on Monday. Some of her blood work came back a little wonky but luckily, by Wednesday, everything was checking out good. Mitzy and I were missing her!! So glad to have my snuggle buddy back.

FIVE. Ladies Bible Study.

I have been going to the ladies bible study group on Thursday mornings. A lot of the ladies who go have known me since I can't even remember. It's fun to be back as an adult. I've always looked up to these ladies and I still do. I had an emotional day and it had to do with missing Mike, Mojo had been at the vet, a lot of friends have had some MAJOR things going on in their lives and it was weighing heavy on my heart. I enjoy my weekly time with the bible study ladies because they are encouraging, rooted in truth and honest. I love them.

How was your week? What's on your heart and mind?
