I made Brigham's 1st Christmas Ornament! I found the idea here!
Such a neat keepsake!
I wanted to give each of my GEMS girls a little something for Christmas, so I made them each a hair clip & a bookmark for their Bibles! They are so cute, and I made 20 of them for $4! Such an inexpensive hand-made gift idea. Thank you Pinterest! There are SO many colors and styles of paperclips out there, but when I saw the cross shaped clips at Hobby Lobby I snatched them up right away! They were perfect!
I also made FAMILY blocks for a gift! If you would like to see my how-to blog, click here! This is another inexpensive home-made gift that everyone loves!
I posted this picture on Facebook a month ago...
Boston did the same thing to his crib so I should have known this day would come. I was so bummed, but then thought 'Oh well, it's just a crib!' I did however want to prevent this from happening to all of the other sides of the crib so that if/when there is ever a 3rd little Gerdes the crib isn't completely trashed. I searched multiple websites for a cute crib rail protector & made a trip to Toys R Us. HOLY CRAP, some of those guards are expensive and I just couldn't justify spending that kind of money. I have really become quite frugal with my spending. You would think I was Dutch! My husband hates it, but some day he'll be thanking me. Any hoo, I finally stumbled upon this idea on Navigating The Mothership! Check it out. I spent $9 on fleece and LOVE the results!
The daycare kids & I have also been busy crafting fun Christmas things!
So yeah, that's my crafting recap! Happy Holidays!
