Reframing

My very talented sister gave me this idea and the prints in these frames. Instead of having these four prints framed professionally which would have been very expensive, I bought pictures at Kirkland's. Then I tediously removed the original picture and framed my prints! Each frame was $24.99 instead of $100 framed professionally! I love this matting and these frames that just happened to fit the prints! These are hanging in our office. We live only a few miles from the beach, so this is just enough of the beach theme.

In the south...probably everywhere...when someone is sick , recovering from surgery , for condolences, new baby, we take food to express we care. Chicken Divan is easy and delish! In the picture below I did not bake it . Just packed it with the recipe. Of course, you could cook it before carrying to the someone.





My family loves this as well! So when you make it to carry to a loved one or friend, I suggest ... make two!

Enjoy!

Love You Berry Much Muffins






I picked up these oven safe ceramic hearts from Micheal for only a dollar. It took two bags of the muffin mix to fill these dishes. As you can see it makes a very large muffin. I didn't get to take a picture of them with the tag (above). I sent them to you know who....my College Girl and her roomies. Her Big Sister and Father are asking where their muffins are????

More Chi Omega Stuff for my College Girl



My College Girl needed a few more academic rewards for her Chi O Sisters. These are the large Hersey Bars with a new look! I took the outside wrapper off and designed a new one using Photoshop Elements. I really had fun making these. My College Girl loved them and can't wait to give them out! Check out the back for the nutrition values...I think chocolate always boosts brain cells! Of course, the study tips will not hurt either!

Sorority stuff



Here's another idea of my college girl, the scholarship chair, for her scholar sisters. Again, one of Katie's ideas ( did I say she was creative) that Mom made. She keeps me busy with her ideas. I used the computer to design this door hanger. I think we could do a lot with this...any color, any design, any text. What do you think?

Baby Block Christmas Tree


Don't throw away your baby's old ABC wooden blocks. My girls (19 and 24) played with these blocks when they were babies. You can still see their teeth marks in the blocks. I had to buy more to make this block Christmas tree because I only had a few I had saved. If you look closely you can see I spelled out our names in the different levels of the tree. It definitely is one of those special decoration in our home. So don't toss out thoses worn color faded baby blocks! Recycle with love!
