Look what I made!!

We recently had a 'Super Saturday' craft day at our church for anyone interested in making some super cute crafts. I was in charge of coming up with some fairly inexpensive things for the ladies to make, so here's what I did, a simple way to display the proclamation (only $2):

And some temple blocks for $5. If you're interested in printing some temple pics out just go here scroll down until you see 'temple printables' then click on it. They have a bunch of different temples to choose from, and a lot of them also come with the saying 'Families are Forever':

The following pics are of things I just made, that I wasn't in charge of. Obviously they are way too cute of projects for me to come up with.
Here's a festively decorated star. I love stars and have quiet a few scattered around the house to add to my "Texas Decor" (as my sister says):

"Home Blocks". Inside the 'O' it says " . . . is where our story begins" :

I love this next one. Our Homemaking leader actually found this online here. It comes as a kit that you paint, then assemble. It was the most expensive item that we offered-at about $28, but I think that's an awesome price for such a durable nativity set!! The metal pieces are already cut out and sanded for you. I love that I now have an 'almost' indestructible nativity set. I say 'almost' because, as my loving SIL pointed out, with my kids there is no such thing as 'indestructable':


And last, but not least, some seasonal blocks. It's a set of 3 blocks that you can rotate for different holidays:









Aren't these just the cutest projects you've ever seen?

Andrea! Those crafts are adorable!! I think I'm going to make some! Thanks for giving us the link to print the temple photos! I loved them and am going to pass on these ideas to my RS presidency!

What site did your Homemaking leader find that nativity craft? I would love to make it!

I just added a link for the nativity above, in the post.

What a great (and really simple)idea for "fancying-up" the Proclamation (I might even be able to handle that)! And the temple block idea was very cute, too! (Obviously, you don't get your creativity from your mother!).

The other crafts are also adorable, especially the nativity scene. It looks like your ward had a very fun and productive "Super Saturday"!

Everything looks so darling. I love the blocks that rotate around for different seasons.

I love those ideas!! We never did a Super Saturday, and I am so bumbed, so maybe I will just have to do something on my own!
