I've lost my mind

I am 53 days from my wedding and deciding to do some DIY projects. I'm going to start my cake topper this weekend. And then my flower girls can't drop flower petels at my church where we are getting married so I decided I was going to look into pomanders. The flower ones take to much time and I ran across the ribbon ones so I will be make 3 of them. Think I'm going to do them in shades of royal blue and silver since the flower firls are wearing ivory.  I don't think I'm going to do the flowers on top like are shown in the link below though

    I don't think you've lost it... I think you're smart. 

    Just don't become a procrastinator in the process. LOL

    @Soon2B see that's why your my new best friend positive encourgement.

    @Baesmom only 3 of my BM live here one is my sister who is taking the BAR right now and I know she is going to want to unwind some after studying for the past 3 months. One just had a baby in April so I may hit up the other one and see if she will help. But my plan is for this to be something to do while i'm watching tv at night and on weekends so I'll get them done. Going to probably hit up Hobby Lobby this weekend they have a sale on ribbon.

    Those are going to be super cute.

    Those shouldn't be too hard.  You can do it, just get a plan together and go from there.  I'm a list person though.

    -Make a list of the supplies you need, gather your coupons and go purchase on your way home from work a couple evenings

    -Start and finish your cake topper this weekend

    -Start to assemble your pomanders over the next 3-4 weekends

    Then you are done and still have a couple weekends to do other stuff or just relax, not to mention all the weeknights you could do stuff, so you may get done sooner.

    GL!!!!
