Men's Shoes.

This was being passed around facebook.  I coudn't find the source but it sure looked like my something my husband would like.  I never knew this!  Did you?

Prayer Pictures.

For a lesson at church one Sunday, I took pictures of my class to make a book for them.  It was about all the times we pray.  There's something about little kids faces when they pray.  They are SOOO cute! !

 

I've decided to do some of my own kids too.  

Embroidery Hoop Egg.

My friend I mentioned before also posted a picture of a table that she re-did and mentioned some eggs that she had made with embroidery hoops.  I think she just took some strips of fabric and ribbon, layered it, and then pinned it back.  I think it looks really cute! My problem is that I never have random scraps of fabric that are laying around, especially not "cutesy" fabric.  The printable was a part of the last post too, and I can't find where the post is to get that printable, but it's from the blog eighteen25.

Easter Countdowns.

My friend did a version of this craft and linked it originally to THIS blog post.  I love the bunny eggs that my friend got at the dollar store for hers! I've been thinking for a long time about doing a cookie sheet countdown for every holiday that gets switched out somehow but I haven't hammered out my ideas yet. 

Vision Boards.

A few years ago, my mom read somewhere, or perhaps it was on a TV show that every person should make a vision board of their goals in life.  It can have phrases, objects, pictures, and any scraps of life that stand out as inspiring to you.  At the time, she was staying with her parents carrying for her father as he reached the final stages of his life.  She and my Grandmother used their spare time to create their very own vision boards.  

Here is my mom's work in progress.  Everything on it so far makes me think, "Yep!  That's SO her!"

This is my Grandma's Vision board front and back. 

 

I decided to make one for myself as motivation while I attend school.  I add things to it that I hear along the way, the rare compliments I get from my professors, and anything else that reminds me why the heck I'm doing this!!

Here is my PhD vision board.  Looks a mess and I need to get a bigger one but I like that it's all me!
