Poinsettia Hair Clip DIY

Today we have a simple and easy gift or craft that you can make in an afternoon and you probably have all of the supplies at home to make them!

My Own Quilt Frames

I love quilts. I always have. Even as I'm writing this I am snuggled under a quilt made by my mother-in-law. If you were to come into my home right now you'd find it littered with handmade blankets....they are on my children's beds, on my bed, thrown over chairs, left on couches, filling my closets...and they range from no sew fleece blankets to pieced and hand quilted heirlooms.

20 Gifts that Cost Nothing to Make But Just Might Be Priceless

 My husband and I are very lucky...my husband teaches school and I am a stay at home mom which means that we are both currently doing exactly what we want to do.  Like I said, we are very lucky indeed. But around this time of year we notice (to put it delicately) that we aren't as well off financially as we would have been if we had chosen other career paths.  And that makes it difficult to buy gifts for others. Which means year after year we make a pact with each other not to spend any money on ... View the Post
