Press Forward with a Steadfastness in Christ

Let's talk for a moment about the 2016 LDS Youth theme, shall we?  Why can't we have the theme up on the wall to see each week?  Well, we can!  I love seeing this up on the wall and really take it in each time I read it.  Want one too?  You can find them here.

I Know the Scriptures Are True

The 2016 LDS Primary theme this year is "I Know the Scriptures Are True".  I like creating vinyl lettering for the walls in our primary room each year.  If you think you might want one for your building you can click here to order one!

I Know My Savior Lives

Is it too early to start thinking about the new Primary theme for 2015?  I don't think so!  I designed this one for our Primary room for the new year.  There are so few options out there for wall vinyl with this theme!  I can't decide if I like it or not.  If you do like it, you can grab one here.

Another year, another theme

Every year the children's program for our church chooses a theme to focus on for the year.  The LDS Primary theme for 2014 is "Families are Forever".  Since our primary room is a little drab, I designed this to go up on the walls.  It fits nicely above the front wall chalkboard.  If you are interested in having one for your primary room, you can buy one here.

Christmas Countdown

The countdown is on--right?  Well, not exactly for me.  But I am sure other people are thinking about it.  I made this little cutie for an upcoming craft night at church using some inspiration from here.  It is made using a painted wood plaque, vinyl, and chalkboard vinyl.  Usually I like more cutesy fonts, but I just didn't feel like it this time.  Most likely my kids will fight over who gets to write the numbers each day.  Just what I need...why did I make this again?

In other news, I have been working hard on creating bunches of awesome crafts for an upcoming boutique.  Stay tuned on that...

Christmas Crafts 2011

Ok, so I haven't posted anything in the past few...well, many months.  Life happened--it always does.  But I just wanted to a take a moment to post some fun Christmas projects.  My mother, SIL, and I all put our heads (and hands) together and cranked out some crafts to sell at the Red-Wood Christmas Tree Farm.  Our dear friends own the place and were so gracious to let us park our crafts there for the season.  Here is a sneak peek of what you'll find there.  So head over, get a tree, a wagon ride, some free candy canes/cocoa/cider, and some crafts!!!  Excuse the terrible pictures...they look WAY better in person.  Trust me...or go see for yourself.

 

Send me a message if you are interested in anything and I will see what I can do about picking one up from the farm for you.  Merry Christmas!

What a chore

Recently I have been thinking that we need to get our little 6 year old on track with some basic chores. I mean, don't get me wrong, she does help out around the house. I just wanted to get something going a little more regularly. Here is the solution. I found this magnetic white board at Staples for like $3 (pen included) and it works great. The boxes get checked off as she does her chores throughout the day. At the end of the day--if she has completely all the chores that are applicable to the day--she gets a check down at the bottom. When all 20 boxes are checked, she gets an awesome reward. Something big and exciting...sounds like the perfect plan to me! Plus, I don't have to take the garbage out anymore.
