Because Kids Wine Glass

This wineglass cracks me up because... well, I have kids! I thought this would make an awesome gift for any mom who loves wine (and her kids, of course)


I think I'm going to make these for myself in every color of vinyl... or at least a different color for each day of the week!

A Few More Fun Wineglasses

So I have a couple more wineglasses to share, since Christmas is right around the corner. Either of these would make a fun gift for a mom...


 My Tween asked why I said "Toddlers" and not "Tweens"... I said, toddlers can't read yet!I think she secretly wants me to make one that says Tweens.....

And of course every Mom should have her own Sippy Cup to finish her evening with. I may have made this in multiple colors.... Drink up, mamas!

In this Home Shadowbox

This is an 8x10 Shadowbox I created with a file from www.lovesvg.com where they have awesome FREE files posted (for personal use). I'm not affiliated with the site, I just love when creative people share, especially when I want to make something and not spend hours finding just the right font...


The background paper in this shadowbox is from Recollections in a paper pack and I love the vintage feel. I used a matte black vinyl for the words because I like the finish with the vintage look. Then I added some gold, red and green jingle bells to complete it!

Snowman Slime with Recipe

So one of my Girl Scout's favorite things to make is.... SLIME. Pretty sure they would make it at every meeting if they could. So between Girl Scouts and my Craft Store job I have pretty much become a slime expert.


So the basic for the slime I love to use is:
9 oz bottle of Clear Elmer's Glue
1 tbsp baking sode
1 - 2 tbsp saline solution

You mix the glue and baking soda together first until the baking soda dissolves. Then you will add in the saline solution. I start with one full tbsp and stir that in well. Most of the time I add more, a squirt at a time until it's not sticky anymore. You have to go slow, and knead well in between squirts so that it doesn't get crazy hard.

To make this slime into snowman slime we added some iridescent flakes and mini foam balls to the slime and mixed them in. Then we just made two blobs on our parchment paper and decorated with pom poms and a hat we cut from foam! Fun and easy... and so much fun to play with too!

Let it Snow Shadowbox

This adorable shadowbox is one of my favorites! It's a 4x6 frame and I just searched my computer for just the right font and decided to do the "O" in Snow as a snowflake in silver mirror vinyl.


The background in the shadowbox is a fine silver glitter paper with a transparent blue opal paper over it. I love the glitter and the shine together! Then I added "snow" pellets and it's done. I think this one is one of my favorites so far!

Elf on the Shelf Wineglass

Just wanted to share another fun wineglass today! Tis the season for Elf on the Shelf.... and inevitably there will be more than one night where I lay in bed almost asleep and then remember the elf hasn't moved herself yet.... 


So I figured that some of my friends may have the same issues too.... so I had to create this fun wineglass to give myself another excuse to have a glass of wine. LOL!

Jingle all the Way Shadowbox

I love creating fun decor for my home and as gifts for friends! This shadowbox is a fun remix of one I made a few years ago.



The one I originally made was 12 x 12 and hangs on the wall. This one is a 5x7 shadowbox and is a table top frame. I love not having to find somewhere to hang one more thing! I filled it with red and green bells that match the stripped paper behind it.
