The beginning….sort of.

August 12, 2011

Alright, since this is a blog about my progress I decided to post these photos from a baby Shower I hosted for a good friend, Rosi :).  (Rosi, let me know what you think)  The lighting was not great. The lens was the one that came with my camera, a 18-55mm.  I did what I could.  Oh! and these were taken on Aperture priority.  Now I know how much more freedom one can have shooting on manual, but I’ve still a lot to learn :).  Again, these pics were edited on iphoto.  
The theme

The wrapping was all hand made by yours truly 🙂

Ordered these beautiful Mason jars form Ebay

Michaels craft stores are awesome!  Everything I needed for decorating on a budget I purchased there.

Candy Station

Yummy! From Sibbys Cupcakery and decorated by me.

I loved this idea for a sign that my lovely sister let me borrow.

Isn’t this a great idea? Prize bags that I sort of personalized with a cool expression, just the feeling when we win something 😀
The future mom.

Nice set of photos for me to look back to and see where I have made progress.
