June Project Martha: Success!

 Our first Project Martha was a great success!  A bunch of crafty ladies got together to see if we could in fact tackle a project out of the Martha Stewart Encyclopedia of Crafts...

 There was a lot of folding involved in the Origami Patio Lights...

In progress...  

But the result was...

FANTASTIC!!!  Look at them lit up!

Be sure to follow us on Facebook to find out what project we will tackle in July!
