Happy New Year Banner!

Hi there! We are having a few friends over for new year's eve tonight and I thought that I would play around my my Cricut and make a banner. I usually make little triangle pennant banners, so I thought I'd try something new, something I could only do with the Cricut... so I decided to make some detailed cursive words, after getting some inspiration from Pinterest. I used the "Babette" cricut font for the words and "Padigton regular" for the numbers.

Loved how it turned out!

My Cricut in action!
Made two copies of the words, so that I could sandwich
 the string in-between the 2 layers.
Gluing my string with Tacky glue
So pretty over the Mantle and fireplace!

Craft Room Reorganization!

Hi there! I've been having fun reorganizing my craft room and searching Pinterest for some inspiration! You see, my AMAZING husband bought me a Cricut Maker for Christmas and I have to find a way to hang all my accessories, because my crafting is about to reach a new level!
 I found this sweet video by Sea Lemon that really sold me on the Ikea Skadis Pegboard system. Then my husband helped me put it up... and voilà! A space to hang all my new crafting tools!
Jeremy putting up the boards!
Loving the little shelves for my jars
The little clips and "paper holder" are great!

Paper Reindeer and Elf

 Hey there! Those who know me know that I love crafting with toilet paper rolls. There are just so many little creatures you can make... and they stand up! I made these two examples for my students and they invented their own versions! This craft turned out so cute! It sure was a challenging craft with a need for hot glue, but it was well worth it.

Look at these cute reindeer.

One student even made a Santa!

Milk Carton Gingerbread House

Hi there! It's the last week of school and we are very busy crafting! The students finished their gifts for their parents yesterday, and they are just ADORABLE!

We made little gingerbread houses from milk cartons (that the kids drink at school) and then popped in a little electric candle to turn them into little glowing homes! So cute!

Make sure to clean them really well and let them dry before starting the craft.




We sanded the milk cartons to remove the wax, then painted them brown.
After, we cut out 3 windows and a door ( to insert the candle)
We glued the tops shut to make the roofs.
We cut out the scalloped roof and layered it up!
The kids decorated the house with pompoms, foams stickers and glitter!
Here is the template I created for the roof. :
I photocopied this on 8.5 x 11 letter sized paper.
