Christmas
Tree Skirt
(12/05/07)

I thought I'd share my easy Christmas tree skirt idea.
I found this round tablecloth on clearance one year after Christmas.
I cut a circle in the center and now use it as my tree skirt. See
the diagram below and cut along the red line. You could sew the
cut edges but I didn't. I also purchased a rectangle tablecloth
that I sewed into two table runners to match. Very easy!

Fall Table
Decoration
(10/11/07)

I'm not much of a decorator, but this is one of my
favorite fall table decorations. I just took a footed glass plate
and put fall beads (I got on clearance from Target a few years ago) and
some gourds I got from a local pumpkin patch on it. It's quick,
easy, and cute.
Halloween
Trick or Treat Bags
(09/23/07)

Here are two trick or treat bags I made for my kids to
use this year. I let them pick out their clipart images so they
are very excited to use them. You can purchase these bags in the
craft section at the store. You'll also need to purchase iron on
transfer paper from the office supply section. Design your bag on
Photoshop or any other design software. It is very important that
you flip your design horizontally before you print it so it won't be
backwards when you iron it on. Then you print out your design on
the iron on transfer paper and iron it on your bag according to the
directions on your iron on transfer paper. Very simple,
inexpensive and cute!
Father's Day and Mother's Day
(06/07)

For My husband and I and for our parents, we have
our kids fill out this sheet. It tells all the reasons they
love us. They also color the picture at the top. I love
to hear their answers and see how their coloring and signature
changes from year to year. We enjoy this much more than any
store bought gift.
Here are the sheets for each holiday that you can
download.

Christmas Wish List (07/07)

At some point on Thanksgiving Day we end up
looking at the sale adds for the next day. Ella loves looking
at the toys and telling us what she wants for Christmas. I
made a fun little Christmas list she can fill out and give to Santa.
I think it's cute and I put it in her notebook to keep.
Here is a copy of my Christmas list you can
download.
