Girls Camp kickoff dinner

So our theme for Girls Camp this year is Arise and Shine forth and we all have a "Light" theme. Our ward chose Woodland Fairies as our was to shine our light. So we had our camp kickoff dinner with the introduction of this theme. The leaders were supposed to make tutus and wear wings.
I had seen some giant flowers on Pinterest that I wanted to make for the occasion.  So Taz and Cynjyn filled some solo cups with cement for me to anchor them down. 
Then Linda came over one morning, and we made a bunch of tissue flowers and some giant tissue balls.
Barbara had found some little fairy wings at the dollar store for the leaders.  But they were made for toddlers and I had seen some on Pinterest that I wanted to try to make on my own.  So with Garry's help we came up with these wings and I made this tutu I'd seen on Pinterest too.  I love this sparkly tule they now have at Wal-Mart!!
Now my wings were visible at least.  I felt like I was flying (Haha, not really, I felt like an idiot!!)
These are the giant flowers, they turned out so cute and mixed with the real ones created a lovely garden fairy feeling.
The tissue balls haning from the ceiling turned out adorable.
Barbara and MaryAnne did the centerpieces and LInda and I did the flowers and tissue balls. I think it turned out really cute. We had wild mushroom soup for dinner and chicken croisannt sandwiches and fruit kabobs. Toni made homemade icecream (mixed berry) for dessert. We had a lime slush for a drink. It was a fun night.
