Rainy Day Work Day

         After being rained on at the games last night our softball tournament was rained out. So instead of lying around and doing nothing {after sleeping till about 10:30} I decided to be productive.  With my Daddy gone on a boys trip {Court Side Seats at the Alabama/Georgia game} my Momma came over and we got started on the wedding favors.  I really DISLIKE wedding favors like bride and groom (anything) really, wedding cake candles, heart (anything) haha. I am more impressed when I go to a wedding and get something a. I can eat or b. I can use.  So I decided to incorporate both things.  I’m not gonna give our surprise away until after the wedding for the readers who will be in attendance at the wedding but I will give a sneak peak!  The clothes pins will have magnets on the back so they can be {used} and as you probably already figured out they will hold something that you can {eat}.

We watched the Bama Game {Roll Tide, Yall} and about 4 different On Demand Shows, we got all 200 clothes pins covered with the paper and I got all but about 50 tied with the ribbon!

Finished product:

I love them. #1 because they are absolutely adorable #2 people can use them and most importantly #3 Momma and I made them together and had a great day despite the rain.

Roll Tide Yall! Laura
