My DIYs!...(w/ pics)

I never thought it was my kind of thing to do them but w/ work making me bananas they became almost theraputic..am I becoming crafty?!

So here are some things, there are more in my album (STD, BM newsletter, etc) I had to share since i'm getting kind of proud and no one else will care but a bunch of other brides haha!! Hope you like

My OOT bags. NYC theme (subway map, NYC landmark postcard, NY Deli potato chips along w/ random snacks)

my jumping broom (ignore my carpet, I did a ton of messy projects that day haha)

Adinka symbol table numbers
Adinka is a pattern used on clothing in Ghana for sacred occasions such as weddings. Each pattern has a name & meaning attached. The frames have the pattern, name, translation and meaning.

Please excuse my bad pics, my sis is holding my digital cam hostage for ransom and these are from my cell phone

Thanks!, I did them in publisher. I found the pictures of the symbols online and saved each one but they were in black so I changed the color and typed the info in. Glad you like them
