oh so thankful….even for giveaways!!!

Category: everyday | November 27th, 2009

thanksgiving was fabulous..super short, but fabulous. unfortunately i had to work the day before and after thanksgiving, but we still managed to travel and hang out with both sides of the family. going to have another family dinner (leftovers!) on Sunday too! can’t get enough of family, especially since we are growing!

i hope everyone had a fabulous time! whether it’s relaxing, eating, or playing/watching tons of football. of course we did it all. wouldn’t be right if we didn’t. back to reality now, but that means i get to craft! so that’s exciting.

ps….husband said i can’t put up Christmas decor until after thanksgiving so yay!!! can’t wait!

Category: DIY | November 13th, 2009

$3 frame$3 purchase awhile  back. finally found a home for it!! all you need is a lovely frame (and glass), some poster board, maybe a ruler unless you are feeling lucky, some molly love, and if you need some guidance, check out The Creative Crate.

tada!I decided not to make mine super girlie (because I would have) so my husband wouldn’t be embarrassed. ; )

daysspice it up! you can use stickers too, like The Creative Crate did. I like the whole handmade idea.

novemberbust out with all your dry erase board markers and you got yourself a year round calendar! not too bad for $3 huh?? HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
