Spouse Event Spring Craft

Are you in charge of planning a fun spouse night for your unit or club but aren't sure what to do? How about a craft event? Between now and May, while supplies last, Tenaciously Remembered is offering the chipboard banner below as a fun group project: 


These banners are very popular on Pinterest right now (you can see different ideas for decorating on Pinterest: http://www.pinterest.com/search/pins/?q=chipboard%20banner). The cost is $10 per banner, up to eight letters, and then $1 for each additional letter. Anyone whose word or name is less than 4 letters will get two additional boards to put red hearts on, like the "Cruz" banner above. The "Guthrie" banner is about 2 feet long and each board in the banner is about 3x4 inches. There are four color choices: white/red/black (pictured), white/green/black (pictured), white/teal/black, and white/pink black. A photo with all of the choices is below.



We will be painting and stamping, so plan to wear casual clothes/bring aprons. I recommend that you reserve community room 655 because of the tile flooring and easy access to a sink. Email me at jessicaguthrie (at) hotmail (dot) com to set up a date or for more details. And plan to have a lot of fun! The current schedule of spouse events is here: http://tenaciouslyremembered.blogspot.jp/p/classes.html
