Happy Day! #22

Creating things makes me SO HAPPY! I love this talk by President Uchtdorf. Especially "the work of creation" section (you have to scroll down a ways). Since today is the first day of March, I decided to show all of the things I have created in February.

Here is the "secret surprise" I sent for Love day to Kate's cousins and Grandparents! They were SO fun to make! I sent them exactly as you see them (the addresses are on back :)). They just send them by weight. I got the idea from Tim's sister. Aren't they so fun? I forgot to take a picture of the Grandparent ones :(

I made Kate's Love day shirt. Well, I just added the little embellishments to the collar :)

This one's blurry, sorry! She wouldn't sit still! (I made that flower in her hair a while ago)

Cute toes! And I LOVE these pants!

Welcome to my house! Yes, my front door is green and I LOVE it! I used my creative genius and used up a bunch of my random ribbon collection (if you haven't noticed, I hoard ribbon!) to make this loverly wreath!

My Momma made the LOVE banner (I added the ribbon craziness on the ends), my little sister Mand & I made that "I Love You" heart a LONG time ago (I just added the bow), and I got the cutie mailbox from Target for $1 (i saw a blog where they modpodged cute Love day paper on it-SO cute!...a craft for next year!)

I got the "I 'heart' U" vases from Target and made the puff flowers using $1 store tissue paper

The two in front really are Red (left) & HOT pink (right), but it's hard to tell in the pix :(

I made these cutie candle vases for a little center piece (I made that table cloth a few years ago)

My mom (& Dad?) made this bookshelf for my classroom my first year of teaching. When I changed jobs (became a momma:)) I brought it home for Kate. I put all of her Love books &/or books that are RED on it this month for LOVE month :) We LOVE these books!!!

I painted that heart a few years ago with Mand & Lind.

I modpodged a $1 frame from Michael's using left over ribbon from my wreath and some scrapbook paper.

We have these awesome windows above some of the doors in our house (called transoms :)) that I'm sure were for circulation purposes back in the day (it's a VERY old house!) They are so fun!

Kate LOVES to pull the hearts off of this mirror and carry them around everywhere...which is why there aren't as many at the bottom!
Sorry, that was a TON! Hope you had a HAPPY first day of March!
