Mommy's Necklace - Gift - Update 4/15/12

Another gift for a Mom to be...

I haven't found an expecting (or new) mother that doesn't love to wear their child's name around their neck.  And I haven't gotten bored with making and gifting them.  =)

My little personal touch...

I stamp all my jewelry with a MA for Mere Amour.  It's like saying that it's made with Mother's Love.  =)

Update:  This precious picture was taken right after Bobby was born!

Embroidered Bins for Coat Closet

I'm trying to catch up with my winter projects (now that it's spring!!) and am putting the finishing touches (after painting) on the foyer.  I still want to install a new rod and shelf in the coat closet and shelving in the craft closet but both of those items are a bit lower on the list.  I will post on the final results of the foyer in a few days.  

As for my bins...

Organization was needed in our coat closet.  We all needed our own space for our items.  I found these bins at Walmart for a mere $3 a piece!  Yeah!  AND our bins needed personalized!  I decided to embroider our names on the bins.

Disinfect Sponge in the Microwave

For those sponges that are still in great shape but you are wondering about may be lurking in the pores...

1.  Get questionable sponge wet.

2.  Slightly wring out but leave half the water in the sponge.

3.  Place in microwave and heat for approximately 1 minute.

4.  Remove sponge with caution as it will be VERY hot.

5.  Wring out once cooled enough to handle.

Your sponge has new life!

Baby Stats WordArt

 

Don't you love it?!?!

With WordArt being all the rage these days, I have seen some baby stats WordArt circulating as well.  I thought about putting vinyl letters, cut out using my Silhouette and transferring it on to the glass of a frame?!  I found this frame in the same color as my friends baby's nursery that just made it all the better.  I'm thinking of making myself one, who cares if it's 6 1/2 years later, right?
