Our teacher gifts

I thought it would be fun to give my son's teachers something they could use this summer to relax and enjoy themselves- they so deserve it!! They have seriously been amazing and have helped make such a transformation in my son!! I knew I had to do something special for them.. I have a really good friend that has a daughter in the same class and she and I got together and came up with this idea. We found the little beach chair, towel and margarita glass at Walmart. We threw in a gift certificate to Discovery Gateway ( children's museum) and a gift card to Texas Roadhouse( yummy steak place) and a little tag that says" You deserve to kick back and relax this summer!!"
I am so excited to give these out!!!

Cute mothers day blocks....

Yes I know mothers day is still awhile away - but when have you known me to wait or be patient!! Not going to happen :) So this is one project that I wanted to try and I have another idea with some blocks and pictures modge podged on them for another mothers day present I want to make- can't wait to try it!!
These were really fun and you could make one for any season or reason :) If you are interested in them email me @thefaverofour@gmail.com- my computer is having a hard time with etsy- I have had several people not be able to get it to work so they had to email me instead.. so just to be safe just email me!!!
They are 2X6 boards with knobs on top - the one is stained and the other is painted- these ones I am giving away as gifts so if you want one with your choice of colors let me know!!



And I had to throw these in there too.. I can't remember where I found them :( sorry whoever thought this cute idea up= please let me know if it looks familiar!!
I just used some spare wood pieces I had .. I think it is a little different then the blocks I usually make so I love it!!!

Yes..more blocks, chicks and bunnies and a wedding gift

My SIL Chelsey came over to craft with me and we made these super cute Spring blocks - I am making mine to go on the backside of the Easter blocks. We are excited to get started on our next set. It is so much fun to have someone to craft with :) We made these blocks the same as my Easter blocks in the previous post - we used vinyl as a stencil and painted fun spring colors around all the edges.




I have seen these chicks on a couple of my favorite site and decided to give it a try. I cut them out all by myself - Chance is very impressed with my cutting skills but I think he is really just happy that he doesn't have to help me anymore!!!


And this is the super cute wedding gift that me and Chels came up with for a family friend. The frame is from Micheals -$4.00. We had so much fun with this - I think they could work for just about anything. I am thinking cute baby shower gifts? Once we were finished painting and adding vinyl we both thought it needed something else - so I made this cute little flower to match the colors in there new house. I hope they like it - if not I might just steal it back !!

How big Am I ?

I made a few of these as birthday gifts, they are so fun and so easy to make!! I just used a 1x6 - they are pretty cheap at home depot or lowes. I just painted it and printed out the vinyl lettering for the numbers and lettering on the top. I used scrap book paper and some buttons to make the numbers stand out. Then I sanded and stained it - and added some cute stars from Roberts. The inch marks I painted on but you can also just use a sharpie - which is way easier. Then I hung it with craft wire and tied some tulle and ribbon on. Way easy!! I love them and can't wait for more birthdays so I can make some more:)
