Photo Album

I was going to make these photo albums for my mom and mother-in-law for Mother's Day, but I ran out of time. I made them a couple of days ago and they turned out really cute. I got the idea from eighteen25.blogspot.com. Click here to see how to make them. They are super easy.





They open up like an accordion. It's small enough that you can store it in your purse and show off pictures of your kids or grand kids.

Mother's Day

In my attempt to be more FRUGAL, but CREATIVE, I have decided to start making cards, for special occasions, instead of buying them. They are so much more personal, because of the time and effort put into making them.

I made these cards for my Mom and Mother-in-law for MOTHER'S DAY:
They are pretty much the same; with just a little variation. I think they turned out CUTE and they were super EASY. I just used supplies that I already had. I need to stop being lazy and get out my cricut so that I can make even cuter stuff. Maybe next time!

INSPIRATION

I have been trying to decide how to decorate my nursery. I am having another boy and I want his room to be cuter than the Winnie-the-Pooh nursery that my other two boys had (Sorry boys :) ).

I want to be all crafty and stylish like the designers on HGTV. Often times they will find one piece and use it as an inspiration for the rest of the room.

Well I was quite thrilled when I found THIS CANVAS at ROSS for only $3.00!

I am going to use it as my INSPIRATION for designing my little guys room. I can't wait.

Things To Do

I am trying to be more crafty. I should have more time in the next few months, since I have a break from school. Below is a list of things I want to accomplish. Hopefully I can get a lot of them done before the baby is born.
