Grandma's {Gift}

This year for Christmas, this is what we gave my mom as a Gift.

Whenever our kids leave her house they always ask for candy(or a pickle), so she can always have some on hand, I made this for her.


I spray painted the lid and the base(a candlestick holder- $0.50 @ second hand store). then used E6000 glue to glue the base onto the bottom of the glass container. Pin It

Grandparents are Great

Since tomorrow is National Grandparents Day, I thought I would show you a "great" gift I made for my mom a couple of years ago.


I was inspired by this book(by Gaby Goldsack) I read to our son.


This is my version. I got a board book at the second hand store to alter.

Inside:

Our family pictures.


My mom & me. In the pocket on the right, I wrote a note to her telling her why she is a "great" grandma to our kids.


In the pages following I had each of the kids, on their page, write why they love her.

I know this is special to her because she displays it in her living room on the fireplace mantle.

Aren't GrandParents Great???? Pin It

{Grand}children Photo Tile

I made this for my mom as a Gift to remind her of her beloved grand-children.



I started with a tile(home depot) & a clear magnet photo holder(walmart). I used the thick scrapbooking 3D glue dots to adhere the photo frame (horizontally)to the tile. I added the vinyl title and all the grandkid names.
I love that she will be able to change it easily.

We are so LUCKY to be reminded of our blessings!
