Cute Photo Ornaments!

Do you and your family send out a photo with your Christmas card each year? We do, and I've been wondering what to do with them as the years pass. I think I've found my answer! Go to Clover Lane to learn more about how these adorable ornaments were made.


Keyboard Christmas Ornaments

A Christmas ornament that speaks to the geek and "tree-hugger" in me all at once! Check out GEEKWARE for instructions.


Handprint Ornaments

Wholesome Womanhood explains how to use Crayola Model Magic to make these handprint ornaments. One of the comments suggests adding a photo of the child on the reverse side. Brilliant! I'll have to try this with Audrey and the new baby this winter. :)

Blueberry Breakfast Cake

Is it just me, or is your mouth watering just looking at this cake? Get the recipe from Amanda's Cookin'.

Bleach-Pen for Decorating?!

Using a bleach pen to decorate a t-shirt... what a great idea! Check out the tutorial at I Am Momma to learn how to make the shirt pictured. This is a kids shirt, but you could make one for an adult too!

Re-Usable Swiffer Duster

I got a Swiffer and Swiffer Duster a few months ago and have felt guilty ever since! I don't like the idea of disposable cleaning products. It seems wasteful. Here is a tutorial I found at Sew Much Ado to make a a reusable Swiffer Duster.

Neat, huh? I'll have to give it a try!

Decorated Picture Frame

Check out the decorated picture frame I saw at Paper Playhouse. Cute, huh?

I think this is a great way to use those adorable stamp sets my friends have. It's just like scrapbooking, but on a frame you keep out in your house! Another craft to add to my "someday" list!
