http://www.decoratetocelebrate.blogspot.com/ is having its second challenge party decorations for
fourth of july the challenge starts june 15 and ends 28th . I made this napkin holder and utencil holders. the napkin holder is a altered box which is a gummy box. I used my cricut expression to cut watermelon at 5in from simply charmed cart and cut stars 2in cut one for each side and glue on box and add napkins,
utencil holders are made out of toilet paper rolls to look like firecrackers just wrap and glue the strips are 2in and to cover bottom just glue a 2in star. Now hop on over and check out the challenge and hope you play along All the designers we have chosen this challenge have some very neat projects to share. Make sure you visit and give them some love. thanks and hugs

  4. Rhonda, great 4th project!!! And what an adorable and useful one too! We're having one of our first family reunions next week and I wanted to do something special like this but got caught up in "last minute" details, so I probably won't get to it; but what an inspiration to draw from for our next big event!!!

    You always do amazing work and are such an inspiration, my friend!

  5. Hi, again, Rhonda! Thanks for stopping by! I've been so busy lately that I often wonder if I'm coming or going...lol! Fortunately, all's good and all's well; I'm enjoying a great summer so far eventhough the weather hasn't been the greatest! Haven't had time to get in much crafting -- miss that -- but it's been a fun time.

    Have missed you!
