Our February Craft...

Look what's NEXT!!
I absolutely fell in love with these "Luck" blocks when I first saw them! Yes, it involves stain, paint, & glitter....BUT it is 10 times easier than our "Witch" blocks! Less letters and you don't have to carefully put a witch together!
Melissa will be teaching this craft in February...the sample will be on display on January 29th (YEP - we had to bump it TWO days back...because YM/YW have switched to Tuesdays!)- our next get-together...at which time you can sign up and pay the girls if you are wanting to do the "Luck" blocks.
The exact price, due date, etc. will be posted shortly...I will send out an email when it's up...just enjoy the picture for now and it's OK if you drool a little! I know, that are that cute, HUH!!
P.S. I know we have been doing a lot of "blocks" lately...but don't fret...MARCH has nothing to do with blocks! I DID have to throw in the "Spring" blocks...for one of the months...but I am sure you won't protest...they are adorable!

**EDITED TO SAY:
Here are the details for the UPCOMING February Craft Night...

The AMAZING "L-U-C-K" blocks will be $20. (Oh, wait...are we talking it up TOO much?? Well, Melissa did do a GREAT job and they are PRET-TY fabulous!!)

The DEADLINE...and ladies...it's a REAL DEADLINE...is Monday, February 16th. She will be ordering the blocks the next day. Please drop the money off to her CASA before then...I would also shoot her an email OR call her to let her know you are interested. If you need that info....email me.

We will be meeting at 'de church on Thursday, February 26 from 6:00-9:00. Please arrive ON TIME, since this project takes a little longer AND the men in 'de ward wanna play b-ball.

Materials to Bring:
-Sandpaper
-Electric Sander
-Brushes (there will be 5 different colors) NOTE: If you have any smaller paint brushes, it may make it easier to get into all the curls on the letters.
-Cool Whip lid/Paper plate, etc. (to put the paint on)
-Wood Stain (Early American)
-Rags
-Wood Glue

A BIG thanks to Karen for all of her hard work on the last Get-Together! Hopefully, you ALL thanked her!! We "HEART" you, girly!

See you all THEN!

I stumbled upon your great crafty blog by accident, but am very glad I did. I love the cute "LUCK" craft for your upcoming craft night. I wish I lived in UTAH! Is there anyway I could join the craft club from out here in Oklahoma? Seriously.....?

I hear you on the shipping. You have inspired me to start being crafty a bit more. Utah is great territory for stuff like this...out here in OK, there's not a lot going on, but I'm going to get ideas from your blog and get it going out here. Thanks for zapping my brain with some creativity from your cute blog! Carry on...

This is so adorable. Would you guys welcome new comers? I just moved to Utah and I'd love to get involved!!! I'm dying for a good fun girly night out, and crafts are just up my alley (not that I'm great at them.)
