We are engaged!!

If you didnt know already collin and i are engaged!
About a month ago we decided to go look at rings together. Within a few mins at kays we found my ring. It was perfect like it called out to me... And the price was perfect as well... Collin also found his ring. The next day we purchased them. His was special order and mine had to be resized. Two weeks later mine was ready we picked it up and that night collin proposed. He was very cute and romantic. He got down on one knee at home and asked me!
We've been talking about it a lot in then past several months and we already had a date in mind. Yesterday i booked the church so you all can put it on your calendar. June 20th, 2014! Yes its a friday... I cant wait! I hope you all can come!

How to make an ordinary bag look elegant

So i needed a bag for an engagement party but all i had was a victoria secret bag... So i decided why not use that but make it look nice with wrapping paper?!
I had bought some really nice black and white patterned every day use wrapping paper on sale after christmas.

Take the wrapping paper and cut it to size . As though your wrapping a box but its a bag.
I used tape but if you have more time and patience im sure you could use glue for a more seamless look.
Do one side at a time and make sure you wrap a little piece at the top into the inside of the bag so your covering all of the original bag.
When all done, use tissue paper to pack your gift with and magic! You have a beautiful bag!
