Happy July Monday to you! Get your coffee or tea because today is a heavy posting. My TOPS group is having their Officer Installation this week and the theme is "A Cruise Liner". Of course I volunteered to make the props and some kind of decorations for the ceremony.
 |
| I decorated bags and made a ship's wheel. |
 |
| Using Die cuts, I made embellishments for 16 bags. |
 |
| I just love the little flip flops. |
 |
| We have six officers so I made six extra special bags for each one of them. |
 |
| Here is what the embellishments looked like before I put them together. Thanks to my neighbor Heather, she let me borrow all her dies. |
 |
| All done and ready to be glued down. I popped in a movie and before I knew they were all done! |
 |
| Each of the officers receives something to represent their position as an officer. The Leader gets the wheel, Co-leader receives a lifesaver, Treasurer buoy, Secretary clipboard and the Weight recorder an anchor and whistle. I found all the items above at the Dollar store except the ships wheel. |
 |
| My creative crafting was tested with this idea for a wheel. I came across this round piece of white styrofoam at the Goodwell. The light bulb went off and I knew what I was going to do. First I painted it all brown. Using a key ring, I ran twine around foam and through the key chain creating the ship's wheel. |
 |
| I was really happy the way it came out. I could have bought one on-line but for .99¢ how could I go wrong...hee hee |
