Scrabble Valentine Canvas art

During the Blizzard of 2015 that did not happen where I live, I like in NY 50 miles from the city. I need a project for my girls to help me with.  So I went to Micheal's, before the storm, and got two 12 x 12 canvas and these two decorative wood hearts.  Then I had them paint the canvas's.  They love to paint.  After they were dry I glued the hearts and the scrabble tiles.  So super easy and up on the wall they went.

They are always asking to do projects with mom.

They turned out so super cute and so easy to do.

Happy Valentines Day early!

Scrabble Christmas Ornaments

 I saw these on Pinterest.  I just had to make them. They turned out so cute.  For the teachers I spelled out last names.  One of the teachers names is 8 letters long.  Almost too long for an ornament. The pictured ornaments measure about 8" long.  The 8 letter one measured almost 12" long.  But my child helped with teachers and she is very proud.

The back is even cute.  I love Scrabble ornaments.  I have made other Scrabble ornaments in past years but these by far are my favorite.

Back to school teacher gift

I made these for the new teachers my two elementary kids are going to have.  I am going to attach a note that says,

As you "teach"
I will "Learn"
Together
We will "Grow"

I tried to paste the actual note to this post but I am so not computer savvy it didn't work so I gave up.

I love ornament exchanges

I love the time of the year when you get to share. Ornament exchange is way fun. Now this particular exchange will happen in Dec. but with the movers coming Friday I knew I needed to make some now. They aren't the greatest because most if my craft stuff is packed. I did the best I could. Hope they are enjoyed by the recipients.

I made these last year for my children's teachers to see them click here.

scrabble christmas ornaments

 I had fun making these.  I got the idea from my friend Wendy at craft goodies.  They are easy.  However I made some with peoples names and I had to buy more than one scrabble game wouldn't you know it.  I have lots of K,X, and M's in my kids names.  Some of the games only had one or two and that just would not work.  Happy Holidays.
