my project for this weekend is to attempt to replicate this crafting project found on martha stewart weddings. a friend who is getting married in a year loves magnolias, but she is opting for a fall wedding, and in my mind, purchasing a significant number of magnolia stems would run a hefty bill.  the description of the craft project seems easy enough, but i'm all thumbs, i only became an "expert" making her "poms" for our wedding after making 100+ and destroying a likely equal amount! we shall see...
