Easy Tote Bag

When I made the puzzle blocks for the kids, I also decided to make some bags to put them in. I haven't used my sewing machine much in the last several years (I was a little scared of it), but when I started playing with it this fall, I had a lot of fun!

This is the tutorial I used. It's meant to be a tutorial that you can use to teach kids to sew, but it worked well for teaching me, too! They end up being a great size for kids.

If yours doesn't, just put it in for about 3 - 4 minutes and listen for the popping to slow.  After the popcorn is popped comes my least favorite step. It's a little awkward, but necessary if...

We're having a board game themed wedding. Neither of us is really into dancing, so we decided to have the reception at an adult arcade/restaurant. Once we had the venue reserved for our desired date, the next order of business was sending out Save the Date cards. A lot of our families will be traveling for the wedding, so we wanted to give them as much notice as possible. We also wanted to stick with the theme. This is what I designed using Photoshop and some ideas I found online: Can you name the game that inspired this design?
