Christmas crafts....
We are already getting into the holiday spirit and my daughter is definitely on top of the craft department. She REALLY likes crafts. She actually watches craft videos just to see how they do things. She especially loves Rainy Day Art. I don't really like the things they do but she is fascinated by it. We've gotten it from the library multiple times. Currently we subscribe to an online craft email called Kids Craft Weekly. It has some great ideas and I'd recommend anyone to check it out. From the latest email, we have been working on holiday cards. I think they turned out great and she is having lots of fun with them!
Our next project is actually a Thanksgiving one from Martha Stewart. We are going to try to make these....
I bought a pom pom maker last year and haven't gotten to use it much so I am excited to finally do it!! I'll post pictures when they are done.
In case anyone is wondering, since announcing I'm pregnant again, I have pretty much been locked inside the house not feeling too well. With the help of my medicine, Zofran, I've been getting out more and finally able to do some things. I appreciate everyone who has been checking in with me and I will definitely be around more posting and chatting. Thanks to all of you for your support!


isn't it lovely when kids enjoy crafting? I've got three boys, but luckily my middle one is a great 'crafter'... albeit a very messy one!!

Those cards are beautiful! I think we have some of those sequinny things...I might have to show my daughter these. She's a nut for crafts, too. Glad to hear you're feeling better!

Those Christmas tree cards are really cute. She did an excellent job. I just found your site through Kids Craft Weekly and have enjoyed my visit here!
