MOPS Crafts

This year, in addition to just being a part of MOPS, I am on steering team serving as a discussion group leader and on the craft team. One of the crafts we did this year was a glass pendant necklace. Caryn, one of the other members of the craft team, had made them with another MOPS group she was a part of and suggested them for our group too. It was a fantastic idea. This past week my MOPS group got to make their pendants. It was rainy so things didn’t dry as quickly as we had hoped so I took them home to just glue on the bails; which also gave me a chance to snap a few pictures. The ladies were so creative! I love how they all turned out.

Also, for birthdays I’m making fabric corsages for each of the moms…all 78 of them. Thankfully, birthdays are spread throughout the year! I’m pretty sure I’ve never made that many of one thing ever before. I tend to get bored making the same thing over and over, but so far I’ve managed to stay on top of this and have about 50 done. I’m trying to make sure to have lots extra so no one has to take the last one. And since I’m just using up scraps, it’s been fun making them and remembering where each bit of fabric came from and items I made with it.
