We are big Utah State University Aggie fans! Go Aggies!! So we wanted to make a wreath to support our team. We bought navy blue burlap on Amazon and made the wreath using this tutorial. I bought the white ribbon at Hobby Lobby and the "A" we bought at The Wood Connection in Layton, Utah. I spray painted the "A" white then cut out "Aggies" in vinyl. It turned out super cute! On a side note, the post that it is hanging on was made by Stephanie's husband! It is probably the most awesome thing that we have ever done!! I love the wreath!!!

Super Saturday!
So I was asked to come up with some crafts for our wards Super Saturday. I had a hard time coming up with something that was cute and not too expensive. So here are the three crafts I came up with.
The first one is a temple name bracelet. A few weeks ago I had gone to the Logan temple to do a session and I saw a bunch of ladies wearing these to hold their temple names. They are super handy and cute. It took buying quite a few different things before I could find the perfect material for the plastic holder. I found some name badges on Amazon that were perfect. Then I cut it down to 2 inches. I used my circle punch to punch a half circle on the top for easier access to the paper. The used my small hole punch to punch holes on each side.
The bracelet is a little wide on my wrist, but it isn't too bulky as to not to work with your temple dress.
The Christmas countdown board was pretty simple to make as well. I saw this here. It looks like the snowflakes are vinyl, which I changed to a stencil. The wood is 12" x 14". I painted mine red and green, but you really could do any color combination that you wanted. Then I cut out the chalkboard vinyl on my silhouette and also the lettering.
The Christmas charger plates were the easiest things that I did. I bought the charger plates at Michael's for $2. The I bought the Silhouette designs in the Silhouette store and cut them out. Overall I chose really easy crafts that didn't cost a lot. The cost for the the bracelet is about $3, for the countdown $7, and for the charger plates $5 each.
