Lets Make a Mess
Target has this awesome new line of office supplies that are so cute and very affordable. My favorite finds were this little pink tape dispenser and this very cute washi tape. It came in sets of reds, blues, and greens. The best part is, it only cost $4 for the 4 pack. That’s the best deal on craft tape I’ve ever seen. I will probably be trying out some of
This was a really fun and simple project. I am very happy with how it turned out. All you need is scrapbook paper, glue or mod podge, scissors, and of course erasers. I love these Pentel Hi-Polymer Block Erasers. 1. Choose the scrapbook paper you want to use. I found that thin paper worked much better than card stock. Cut a strip of paper to the exact length of the eraser
Pin It This is a really fun activity that Benjamin, Lyla, and I have been doing lately when we are playing outside. All you need is play sand and a sifter. Sift the sand (it needs to be dry sand) and you are left with all of these little sand rocks. It is a great exercise to help build fine motor skills. This is also a great way to show
Stamps are such a fun and easy way to decorate and embellish projects, like these simple stamped gift tags. Pin It What you need: Brown craft tags (Or cut your own from card stock) Flower stamp ABC stamps Ink (I love these Clearsnap Colorbox Pigment Paintbox) Ribbon or twine Each color of ink in the box separates. You can then use the pad to dab ink onto the stamp. I
I am so excited to finally have my own work space! I attached empty tea tins to the side of my shelf to use as organizers. My pens and pencils, scissors, and markers are easily within reach but they aren’t sitting on my desk taking up valuable space. Plus they look really cute. I used a level and a ruler to mark where I wanted the tins. I then attached
I used to think that homemade lemonade took forever to make. Since it has been spring here in Florida basically all winter, we decided to make some lemonade the other day. It only took about 15 minutes and it is so delicious! What you need: About 5 lemons (1 cup of lemon juice) 7 and 1/3 cups of water 1 and 1/4 cups of sugar 2 tablespoons of grenadine (optional
People are always talking about the working mother, but who talks much about the working grandmother? My mother, aka Geemee (more like Dr. Geemee since she has a PhD in Statistics) is one of the busiest people I know. She is constantly juggling her busy job as a college professor and administrator, being a wife and mother, and of course now being a grandmother to these two adorable ones. How
This is such a fun and easy way to display a family photo. What you need: A mini easel and canvas (both easily available at any craft store) A brush and glue or mod podge A photo cut slightly smaller than the little canvas What you do: Brush a thin layer of mod podge or glue onto the canvas and onto the back of the photo. Place the photo onto the little
I wanted to share a few more pictures with you of Benjamin’s room. A few people had asked what he thought of his new room. He was so thrilled with the blue walls and talked about it for days. Now he calls it his blue room. I was actually surprised by how much he cared and it made me feel a little bad I hadn’t painted it sooner. He also
If you haven’t noticed by now, I LOVE animals. My latest obsession is the fox. In my opinion, the fox is the new owl. Haha. Who knew baby foxes were so adorable? Thank you Pinterest!
