Paper Shoes for YW in Excellence

Our "Young Women In Excellence"
is coming up, November 2nd! Since I'm new at this and struggling for ideas .... I refer to the Internet ....... A LOT!!

I found the paper shoes (several in fact) on line and also a ward that had used them for
" Young Women in Excellence" so I incorporated it into ours. We have been discussing the Temple all year. We had our "Temple Trek" back in May and we walked the Green Belt to the church. (5 miles) We made several stops along the way and at each stop the leaders would tell the girls about their trek to the temple and how it occurred in their life. We then transported the girls to the temple and walked the grounds and took pictures of the girls at the temple. We then had an evening where the girls made frames for their picture and entitled it
"PICTURE ME AT THE TEMPLE"
Anyway, the whole night will tie into shoes and where they take you ......
HENCE, the paper SHOES!!

I made 40 shoes and used my "Cricut" to cut out flowers and made a little arrangement for the toe!
I then filled little bags with "Hershey Kisses" and tied curling ribbon on them and inserted them into the shoe! We will use them as a party favor for each girl. I will show the entire evening on my Personal Progress blog in November.

I think they turned out pretty cute! Hope the girls like them!
Where will your shoes take YOU??
Something to think about!!
