Un-decorating Christmas

It’s that sad time of year when it’s time to put away all the treasured Christmas decorations for another year.  As much fun as I have putting up decorations, putting them away is more important to me. Since we don’t always know when the Air Force will be moving us again, I need to carefullyKeep Reading…

Repurposed Christmas Cards

I’ve been repurposing last year’s Christmas cards for years now.  With a quick cutting and punching you can turn old Christmas cards into new gorgeous gift tags. My friend M. gave me the cards on the right that she “inherited” from an older family member.  I purchased the box of cards on the right atKeep Reading…

Child’s Sweatshirt to Treasured Pillow

My son came home after a kindergarten Christmas program with an adorable decorated sweatshirt that he’d never wear again. How is it that I didn’t take a picture of him in the sweatshirt?  What a distracted Mom!  Poor third child.    Neither of us were ready to just toss or donate the sweatshirt, but I could seeKeep Reading…

Hanukkah Gift Envelopes

My friend K. celebrates Hanukkah.  She was telling me last week that she gives her children gifts in envelopes for Hanukkah.  I celebrate Christmas.  I thought I’d whip up a Christmas gift for her that she can use in her family’s celebration of Hanukkah.  I just had to make sure to get it done inKeep Reading…

Gift Receipt Folder

I have the same problem every Christmas.  I put receipts for gifts in the perfect spot so I won’t misplace them and then some how I do misplace just the one I need later to make a return.  It’s an embarrassing confession since I like to think I’m pretty organized.  This year in less thanKeep Reading…

Fabric Gift Bags

Every Christmas morning for as long as I can remember among all the excitement and happiness of opening gifts,  I’ve felt terrible about the big trash bag of wrapping paper and ribbon that we tossed out.  About 12 years ago I started making cloth gift bags to use during the holidays.  They’re VERY easy to makeKeep Reading…

Repurposed Santa Treat Box

 I love crafting for the holidays. Wait, who am I fooling? I love to craft anytime of the year. But it extra fun to craft during the excitement of the Christmas season. It makes me even happier when I’m able to craft with a repurposed container or jar. And then I’m even happier when theKeep Reading…

Thanksgiving Care Kits

We have a tradition in our house of making care kits for the homeless at Thanksgiving.  The tradition started 8 years ago when my brother and his family came to visit for Thanksgiving.  There were 6 children under the age of 8 in our house for 3 days.  And this was in New Jersey soKeep Reading…

Tombstone Decorating with Repurposed Boxes

A couple of years ago, we threw a Halloween party for my daughter and a bunch of her friends.  It was the first year that my daughter was too old to go trick or treating.  (I know, I know.  We still have old teenagers coming around every Halloween, too.  But we just decided that atKeep Reading…

Scary Eyes Halloween Cake

A couple of years ago when it was my now 17 year old’s first year to be too old to trick or treat, we had a bunch of her friends over for a Halloween party.  Unfortunately, it was pre-blogging days and I didn’t take very many pictures.  The party was great fun, with all kindsKeep Reading…
