This project is a blast from the past. I made it two years ago, but I love to haul it out and use it every year as a Halloween decoration. I used a three-clip clipboard, but any size clipboard will work. You can make one for every holiday! What a […]

Can you see where I am going with this? Hmmm…cheerleading, treats, can you guess? These are empty “Izze Sparkling Juice” bottles (I am totally addicted to Izze!) that I washed out and filled with yummy fall candies! (p.s. the tag on the middle bottle looks like a witches hat in the […]
A few weeks ago I took my daughters into Chick-fil-A and was delighted to find these cute megaphones on all of the tables. I was even more delighted when the friendly manager said it was okay for me to take one home. Below is the first part of a big project […]
I am obsessed with American Girl dolls. I created some fun masquerade masks that fit their little heads perfectly! Just add some bling, and even a skull mask won’t be scary! You can also adjust the size of length of the elastic and use the mask on a teddy […]
