DIY {Scrapwood} Snowflake



"To appreciate the beauty of a snowflake it is necessary to stand out in the cold"  -Aristotle 


A wood snowflake has been on my "to build" list for years. So during Christmas break my girls and I spent some time building. I made a snowflake while my girls each made large wood arrows.


They were each different {just like us}
and they turned out great!
{plus: its always fun doing things together} 


There are so many good tutorials online from so many talented women. I probably have about 100 different tutorials saved on pinterest. But I just wanted a small one {18"} to go on my shelf in our livingroom. So I took the directions from a couple different tutorials and just shortened all the pieces.

2020 Youth Theme {The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints} Free Printable

I love this years theme! I'm super excited about studying the Book of Mormon with my family, so I love that the theme comes from Nephi. 


I serve as Secretary in Young Women's 
{I love my calling!!}

As you've probably guessed I'm a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints {LDS/Mormons} and I'm so grateful to have the gospel in my life.


So, as I was putting together binders for our new class presidencies I decided to make a cover for their binders with this years theme. 

1 Nephi 3:7
And it came to pass that I, Nephi, said unto my father:     
I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them.

By request from my daughter... she did not want pink. So I made pink ones for the older girls and a different color for the younger girls. I just couldn't decided which background to use so I made a few different ones {decision making's not my strong suit}
