JOY Wreaths!


This is the last craft I have to post today.


I would do a few things differently since I just kind of winged it. All in all I like them :)
Here is the link from whence this idea came:

Painted Ornaments!


I was going to use this idea for the Christmas pictures as well but decided not to. I went ahead and did it for the tree.

I found some plain ornaments and paint markers at Hobby Lobby and started coloring away!!



I did 12 of them all different, this project was too easy :)

Chalkboard Art!


I was wondering what to do as far as props for our family Christmas picture and I kept seeing a chalkboard while looking for picture ideas. It was perfect! Hobby Lobby had a good sized board for only 7.99 and 30% off!! I don't have the Christmas pictures back yet but here is the chalkboard now which I am using for decoration around the house.


Here it is for Christmas!


It is so much fun decorating it, I guess it's the artist in me :)


Yummy Meal!


Honey Garlic Pork Chops


This dish was really, really good! Normally I am not a pork chop fan but with honey and garlic, it made it flavorful :)
Here is the recipe:

I'm back with more crafts!! Yay!


I am finally back into the swing of things and I have many plans for crafts!!!

This is what I did for above Von's crib...


I started out with some wood letters I bought at AC Moore.


then some coordinating scrapbook paper and Modge Podge.



 I used a crafting knife to cut the scrapbook paper inthe shape of the letters and then modge podged them onto the woodenletters. I added decorations with a hot glue gun. 


This was a cute and simple project I did to add some personalization to Von's room!!!
