DIY Bible Tabs

Here's the teaser picture I posted on my Instagram.
It also shows all the materials you'll need:
 1. washi tape or Scotch Expressions tape
2. tabs (I really wanted to find clear ones, but couldn't. I ended up being more than happy with it because you can see the colors on the back.) 
3. permanent markers or non-gel pens (so it doesn't wipe off)
4. scissors
5. Bible

Steps: 
1. I would put the tab on the table or my bible and line up the tape along the tab. 
2. Then just trim it with scissors. Pretty simple, but rather tedious if you're a perfectionist like me. 
3. The stick it on the page. I lined mine up as best I could so that they'd be in straight line. 

The first one! 

I also wrote the title on the back of the tab.

I found out that black Sharpie works best so that you can see it easier.

Working away...

The final product!

baby shower decoration crafts for busy people.

craft #1: banner with the baby's name
supplies:
1. banner making kit {comes with banner pieces and twine to hang} 
2. letters with adhesive already on them
{these were right beside of each other in michael's!} 

directions:
1. put the letters on each banner piece {we made one with the baby's name, for the food table, and for the gifts table. it took two banner kits to do this.}
2. cut small holes into the top of each banner piece 
3. thread the twine though the holes

 

craft #2: small bottles with ribbon for the tables 
supplies:
1. ribbon
since there is a cute little baby boy on the way, we chose yellow & blue for the ribbon colors.
 

2. hot glue gun
my favorite hot glue gun. it may not be cute, but it works really well! 

3. small vintage bottles

directions: {for each bottle}
1. figure out where you want your ribbon to go on the bottle and what ribbon combo you would like to use. be creative! the more ribbon you have, the more creative you can get!
2. hot blue the ribbon on the bottles!

tip: you want to make an odd number amount of bottle for each table so that the placement of the bottles on the table looks right
 


here's what everything looked like at the shower:
