I'm back from Silver Bella and you are not even going to believe this... I took fewer pictures than I did last year! I know, I said I was going to take more! I don't know what happened. Quite honestly I thought I had only taken one... yep, you read that right... ONE PHOTO. But after I pulled my camera out of my bag, I realized I took just a few more than that. But my friend Nina took a lot, so I'm hoping she will email me some.
Okay, back to the mums. Heather Ales hosted a Mum Swap for all of us Texas Bellas, because mums are such a BIG thing here at Homecoming.
Fun, Fun, Fun!
This is the mum I created for Jana... bright vintage chic.
And this one...
I made for Nina. She got into SB late and missed out on the swap, so I thought this would be a good roomie gift for her.
Now, are you ready for this?! Here is the mum that Debe Leon created for me.
Oh my freaking word!!! It's AMAZING!!!
I love every inch of this mum... and there are a lot of inches here to love, I'm tellin' ya!
Look at the coffee! And the "Texas Ranger" badge... ACK! And it gets better...
Wow! Speechless! Thank you, again, Debe!!!
I have a whole lot more to share, but at this point, I'm not sure when I will be back to do so. But, as soon as I can, I will!
Have a beautiful week!

Wowee wow! That's definitely Texan ~ all of these are just beautiful. Did y'all wear these? Did other non-Texans "get it"? Looking forward to more Bella info! ~ Angela
I am glad you liked the mum! I had so much fun reading your history and discovering the you that you let all your followers get to know. I really wanted to get a vintage hankie on there but that might have caused you to fall over backwards!! It was a grand event..but, wow,am I tired!! Those Texas mums did make a visual impact!
They are beautiful! What a lovely idea!
My names Alisa too :)
This was my first Silver Bella and the Texas Mums were my first glimpse into what was to come. I was blown away by these. We Oklahoma gals know our way around a Homecoming mum and I really 'got' what you were up to. Great, fabulous, brilliant!
THAT IS SOOOOOOOOOOOME MUM! Amazing. Love the ones you made too. Can't wait to see your photos & the other girls. Talked to Joanna today & she said the classes were also amazing. Did you take the same ones she did?
