Last night we had our Young Womens New Beginnings. Each of the YW leaders had a different assignment to help with it. Mine was to decorate the room. The theme for 2012 is Arise and Shine Forth and so we went with yellow as the color. I bought scrapbook paper and some cute foam letters from Michaels crafts store and made these fun circles that spelled shine. Then I attached them to some bamboo skewers that I had and put them in mason jars filled with rice.
I got some larger mason jars and filled them with white Christmas lights and my mom loaned me this cute yellow quit top to use as a tablecloth. Here is everything set up in the Relief Society room where we had the activity.
Another one of the young women leaders made these adorable and delicious yellow lemon cupcakes. I need to buy some of these cupcake racks, they are so cute.
Another leader made a handout with the theme on it and 6 giant lemon balls for each of the girls. I provided the balloons and the yellow tablecloth.
Here is a closeup of the handout.
I got to have two of my daughters attend New Beginnings with me. Holly is already in YW and Emily was spotlighted since she will be turning 12 in a few months. All the girls that will turn 12 this year got a pink rose.
The talks and the music were fantastic. We have a lot of talent in our ward. We also watched the music video from lds.org that goes with the theme. It's definitely worth watching if you haven't seen it. Click on the link to watch it
