Oh The Places You'll Go

Posted by admin


Hello Friends!
More Back To School fun stuff to share!



A favorite Dr. Seuss book, loved by many!
(I Found the idea Here:  Pinterest-I added a few more ideas to it)
http://lisasworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/06/oh-places-youll-go-end-of-school-year.html
Throughout the years of your childs education,
 secretly give your child's teacher this book to sign
at the end of each school year. 
Present this gift/book to your son/daughter on
Graduation Day(Senior Year) from High School!

I'm going to include
 a picture of my child's first day of Kindergarten, along with  pictures of their teachers throughout the years. 
If you have missed a few years, it's never to late! 
I'm back tracking a few years for my youngest one!

I love this gift idea for the TEACHER on The First Day Of School!

Maybe, I will attempt one, wish me luck.
2.  Great picture idea for the first day of school.

For The Birds!

Posted by admin

Who can resist cute little birds? Not I!

I see birds everywhere, but these are exceptionally CUTE!
I love the detail!  I think they would make a wonderful pin cushion,
as well as a great gift idea for crafters and sewing friends!
I need extra days, extra hours in the week to make all these fun projects!
That is what I love about Pinterest!
My "To Do" projects are easily accessible and they wait for me!

You can find the adorable little birds here:
http://danielleflanders.blogspot.com/2011/06/happy-trails.html

I have made birds from this simple easy to follow bird pattern found here.
(You may remember these birds, I've featured them in the past.)

Birds are for everyone!
Enjoy your summer!
