Craft Day
I loved being a girl scout. I loved being a girl scout because arts and crafts. I was pissed when it ended. I loved my Make and Do book in my children's encyclopedia set as a kid. And still to this day I can get lost and stay at Micheals for hours dreaming about all the projects I will do. There are a lot of handmade touches I want to add to the wedding. Crafting is not always cheap and I have had to be choosy about what I will make for the wedding, because as my friend said this morning, "People don't appreciate this like you or I do." She's right that's why Girl Scouts ended in sixth grade, thats when girls cared about what everyone else thought. The popular girls said we were dorks, they didn't appreciate homemade pillows or cookies. They cared about their hair and clothes and boys. Well now I have it all, I have a boy who likes handmade things and let me know he would like a lavender scented candle, he's the boy who matters. Here is the Lavender-Lime candle I made today with my friend Emily!
