Posted in What She Said ...

Niki's Organizing Blog has a great, inexpensive Christmas gift idea
!
FutureGirl has a Crocheted Beaded Bracelet tutorial up that is inexpensive and quick!

Carli's Clan has an amazing gift you can make with just a blank canvas and torn paper
!
Froo*gal has an amazing Louis Vuitton knock-off fabric bead necklace tutorial.
And how about this awesome framed print? You can make it right at your computer, and it can say anything you want. I got this idea (and the picture!) from Jennspiration who got from Chris, when she first started reading her blog. It is a Wordle collage. She started with the baby's name then added all words that pertained to "baby" and surrounded her name. She added some embellishments to the frame and ended up with this:

*Please forgive the weird layout ... don't ask. :/

*Please leave me your email or web address so I can "talk back" to your comments! :o)

I am a Christian wife and homeschooling mother to 6 beautiful children ... 12, 13, 17 19, 26, and 29. Yes, we had them in sets of two!! We are homeschooling the youngest 4, the 5th just moved back home for a spell, and the sixth is getting married in November. We also raise Pomeranian and Shih-Tzu puppies. I love reading mysteries, crocheting, scrapbooking, and reading other like-minded blogs. :o)
