April Showers Bring May Flowers - Part 3

Part 3 - Decorations
Decorations included hanging umbrellas and flowers from the ceiling. Umbrellas can be found at the $ store in the winter months. They were out by April so start collecting early. The flowers were made from a pack of colored card stock purchased Michaels for $2.99 (50% coupon used). I took the paper to our local school where I was able to use their die cut machine for free. Scrapbook stores usually have die cut machines available for use for a nominal fee or free if you purchase the paper from them. The flowers and umbrellas were attached using fishing wire.

Each table had a yellow table cloth with a small arrangement of daisies. The bowls used for the arrangements are ice cream bowls purchased from the $ store. Each place setting had the cutlery wrapped in a purple napkin and sealed with a flowered band. A quilt and fresh flowers adorned the presenters table along with a picture of Christ and blocks that say "We Believe".

Each sister was given a daisy box filled with poppyseed sugar cookies to take home. The daisy boxes are part of the Martha Stewart line and found on clearance at Wal-Mart. There are 20 in a pack.
