Thanks Miss J!

My 6 year old niece made this beautiful sachet bag for her favorite Aunt! ( OK - she made them for all her Aunts and her Nana too)

Look at the awesome sewing job did -


Way to go J!

She also painted this pretty picture on a bar of soap (it is one of those that the image shouldn't wash off - we will see). Thank you so much!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Don't these look delicious! Well they aren't!
I decided to make the kids this Chocolate Playdough for Valentine's Day. O it smells so yummy! Now I will have to convince them not to eat it, but with one taste I am sure they will get the picture!

Yesterday we made these hearts. . .

They were so simple for Miss A and they turned so cute!

We are invited to a Valentine's Party for the kids so I thought I would make these sour cream containers. I filled them with Valentine goodies.

And lastly, I was in charge of a craft project for the kids. I think they will enjoy making these.




HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!

O is for. . .

At Miss A's preschool they talked about the letter O so I thought we would change up our day and have an O day at the house. We cut out O shapes and put oatmeal on them. . .

Then we had an O lunch with orange jello, orange cheese, olives, oatmeal, O's, oranges and orange drink.

Coasters

I needed a quick easy project to do. So I made coasters. These red ones are for me I thought I could use them for Valentines Day and Christmas.


I had some fabric I wasn't too found of so I turned them into Red, White and Blue coasters for all those patriotic holidays. They will probably make it into my present stash.

Too Cold Outside

We decided since we still have all of this. . .

that we would make these snowmen. We painted the snowmen with q-tips and cut them out and decorated them.

Here We Go Steelers!

I saw these footballs on No time for flashcards so we had to make them for our Super Bowl Party today.



Draw 2 football shapes on a paper bag and color.




Cut out, add white lacing, staple around the edges 1/2 way and start stuffing with paper. Then finish stapling.


Easy and fun - GO STEELERS!
