I'm Kind of Proud of Myself!

I'm not sure what possessed me when I asked, "Would you like me to make some centerpieces?"
(I'm not so creative.)
One day I walked the aisles of the Meijer store looking for SOMETHING to incorporate into centerpieces for a baby shower.  I looked at this Foam Puzzle Mat and got an idea!  I purchased a bag of balloons, too.
 This is what I came up with!  I assembled them this morning.  They're in place for the shower this afternoon.
There were letters left over, so here is a mini-tower we constructed on the refreshment table.
I'm pleased with the outcome.  The puzzle will be my gift for the baby!
I'm looking forward to a good time this afternoon (and am glad MY part is over)!

  9. Thanks to all of you for your encouraging remarks. Too often I compare myself with others and think I got the "short stick" when it came to originality, but this time I surprised myself.

    BRENDA, thanks for reminding me I'm a child of the Great Creator. I DO rejoice!
