Brown Farm Relief Society Birthday Social 2016

Our theme for this years Relief Society Birthday Social was

Few of our favorite things.

I know, I bet you're already singing...

Brown paper packages tied up with string, these are a few of my favorite things,

The Sound Of Music. I had that tune running through my head for months while we planned this lol


So, we went with the Brown Paper Packages as the decor.

I made origami boxes using brown lunch sacks. Tied them with string and added the saying

brown paper packages that I printed off on card stock. Then the rest of the relief society board helped assemble, glue the remaining 60 boxes that I had prepared.

I made a poster from poster board.

Using more lunch sacks I cut out triangles to make a banner.

Bought large brown gifts bags from Zurchers for display on the food table

This was the front display.

I used some of 'My Favorite Things' to display.

Welsh Wool Blankets, Picture of Christ and a picture of the famous

Rain drops on Roses...etc which I purchased from Esty UK

One another table we had the sisters display, 'their fav things'

that they all had a chance to tell us about after the light dinner

For a little decor we strung paper lanterns I also picked up from Zurchers.

For dessert we assigned a sister to bring a centerpiece cake for the table. 

I must say they all looked yummy.

I made two.
