I have two easy and last minute valentines if you still need some in time for Thursday. I am usually a last minute girl myself, but this year I had a seven-year-old who was UBER-excited to make her valentines so we did ours this last weekend. For our girl Valentine, we found these cute felt hearts at Hobby Lobby and used glue dots to put them on jumbo paperclips to make cute felt bookmarks for her classmates. It was an easy project and Hannie could do the whole thing herself--which she was ... View the Post
Broken Heart Letter Matching Game
This is one of the games that Gracie will be playing this week at preschool. It's simple, just put the broken hearts back together again matching the lower and upper case letters. And it's easy to make just print out the templates that I made onto red or pink paper. (You can download them from HERE, HERE, and HERE---They are in 3 different places because there are 3 different sheets) Then cut them out. (Cut INSIDE the line of the heart so you won't see the template line once your heart is ... View the Post
The Art of Homemaking: In Search of the Ultimate Sugar Cookie
(You don't mind a picture of kid-decorated cookies do you? Although I think they did a better job that I can...) My art of homemaking this last month has been the search for the ultimate sugar cookie. It all started when I made a batch of sugar cookies before Christmas and they just weren't very good.

Recently this dress has been popping up all over the blogsphere.

A Blessing Dress.
My niece was blessed this last weekend, and unfortunately I couldn't be there. We had two other trips planned for February and we just couldn't swing another one in there, so I called my sister (my twin) and asked if I could make baby Sarah Jane's blessing dress. I was hoping it will help me feel like I was there in spirit.... So, at the beginning of last week I set out the make the dress. I was actually afraid to start the dress too early because I was worried it would be too small by the ... View the Post
Facebook: Strange Things Are Afoot….
Very strange things.... I suppose they have been going on for a little while now...and we knew about it...Elizabeth is the one that actually started it. But we haven't done anything about it. Not really anyways...until today. You see, Elizabeth and I are far from being multi-media, techno-promotion girls. We like to sew and maybe craft and then sew some more. And I feel pretty good about figuring out the blog thing so that I can talk about sewing and crafting and sewing some more. But our ... View the Post
