OBT member Corinne inundated the tribe with some of the fabulous DIY projects that she and her fiance have been making for their Alice in Wonderland themed wedding. OBT members can see all of the projects by checking out her wedding update here.

But we were really delighted by her twist on on Naomi's ornament/lights bouquet. Corinne made it her own by adding some awesome crocheted flowers to the mix!

Thanks Corinne for this new twist on an old favorite! And to see how to make your own light-up ornament bouquet, click here!
