Three days before the event: "Um, I don't have time to make centerpieces for the Missions Banquet; can any of you come up with something? It needs to fit our banquet theme of 'The Dating Game' AND tie in with missions. Oh, and there's no budget for this."
A few ideas were tossed out, and suddenly Heather and I were "in charge". Again. This is becoming a habit.
Someone sent us a link to the old Dating Game stage set and we were off. Sticks cut from our shrubs. Construction paper that Heather wanted to use up. Old maps. Glue.
We kept in mind the glass vases that we knew were at church, cut the sticks down to an appropriate length, and freehand cut flowers and hearts (God's love for all people). Glued two shapes back-to-back to each stick, and popped five in each vase. There. Centerpieces for 24 tables.
