What to do....


I picked up this piece of burlap at my local DI yesterday for.....get this......25 cents!! It's a pretty good sized piece (it measures 16.5" x 37"). Now I have to decide what to do with it....decisions, decisions!

**I'm happy (and relieved) to let you know that the 2nd winner of my Birthday Cards giveaway, Lori, contacted me a few days ago. Yay!! I was beginning to think that nobody wanted my prize! Lori, your cards are on their way!!

Have a great weekend everyone!!

{Cute Jewelry made by my 10-year-old!}

I just had to post about this cute jewelry that my 10-year-old made recently. She loves to make jewelry, but hasn't been able to lately because we're out of the stretchy string. So far, we haven't found any stores in our small town that sells it. So she came up with her own solution. Rubberbands!! I never would have thought of that, but they worked perfectly for all these cute little rings!! And it's a great way to recycle rubberbands that would have otherwise gone in the trash!
This ring is her favorite. So adorable!!
I'm so proud of my daughter and how creative (and thrifty) she is! I can't wait to see what she comes up with next!!

Scripture Covers

THIS IDEA immediately went on my "To Do" list as soon as I saw it! I'm glad to say that it's a project on my "Done" list now!!
I did this for my older 2 girls, and decided to cover their Bibles too....(I have an obsession with making sure everything matches!). They turned out cute, and my girls love them!!
