The Snow Fridge, er uh, man

Brought to you, by the world of pinterest.com. No, seriously.. I got my idea from Pinterest. I LOVE that site! SO much inspiration! Here is my source for THIS project: snowman fridge It was such an easy task too. I took less than 10 minutes to clear my fridge of all the clutter, what with magnets, papers, etc.. then wiped it clean. Cutting out the shapes was the most daunting task, but still easy.. I COULD have used my cricut to cut PERFECT circles, but I like the mishapen look for the "coal" eyes and mouth. Use a little tape, and DONE. So easy.. and if it gets destroyed.. oh, wait, buttons are already gone, thanks to a certain 1 year old... darn.. but no big deal. No sweat of my back. ;)

Coffee Post

My husband brought me home a flavored creamer last night from work.. and I must admit, that I almost couldn't wait to get up this morning so I could have my coffee. *almost* but 6am isn't all that early I suppose.. oh, and I have my coffee.. and I must say, it tastes SO good.. Here is the creamer that drew me in ;)

 Now, go get yours and try it. :)

Art display canvas

I am working on making each kid their own little display board, using cork boards we had picked up on clearance, 1.00 per piece. I freezer paper stenciled 3 pieces of fabric (I used fat quarters I had picked up at walmart, for 1.00 a piece), then I mod podged the fabric onto each board. I am not completely finished yet (wow.. seems like a going trend in my house.. :\ but its a good start. I plan to hang them in the hallway, so they can showcase their artwork without ruining the walls. :)

Pardon the photography.. between taking these at night, having a crappy camera because our good one broke, and that I stink at taking pictures, well.. this is the best I can do for this project. Will do better in the future, I promise. :)

Gift Tags

I have been working on some hand made gift tags. All in all, I had cut about 130 of them (OK OK, my CRICUT, cut them, not me) and I had hand stamped each one. I am not completely finished with them as of yet, but here is a preview.
