New Beginnings

stand ye in holy places.

We held our New Beginnings event last Tuesday. One of our mia maids, Elise, helped organize, plan and conduct the event. She did a great job and is able to count it towards one of her value projects. We welcomed two new young women that will be turning twelve this year. It was a lot of fun and a beautiful evening. Here are some pictures and downloads to use if you'd like them!

Tissue paper flowers, paper sack flowers, burlap, our mutual theme chalk boards, temple pictures and some quick mutual theme Word Art I designed made great decorations.

I used a shoe in each value color for my talk and they ended up as the perfect decoration for the mutual theme that I tied into personal progress.

And for refreshments some yummy treats including mini cupcakes with THESE cupcake toppers.

I also gave the new girls a small jewelry box to put their young women motto necklace in so they don't lose it between now and the time they enter young womens. I forgot to take a picture but will try to get one for you. They turned out really adorable...a bright blue heart shaped box and I enlarged the cupcake topper with the high heel on it and printed it on bright pink paper, cut it out in a heart shape and mod podged it on the lid.

Thanks to Elise and Kayoko the evening was amazing!
