Valentines/Pinterest

Well I'm hook on Pinterest thanks to Shawna at What I Do When I Play. She gets me in so much trouble. How you ask... she is always showing me new things to do on the computer. 

My boards are starting to fill up on Pinterest and I'm finding lots of neat things to do on there. So I picked my first project and that was hearts.

I wanted to make the kids something little for Valentines Day.

 These hearts are for the kids still living at home. I figured the girls can wrap them around a hair clip and shema can use his as a book marker. I'm going to give them to them in the morning before school.

Now the older kids I'm going to make them a Valentines card and one crochet heart. Then I will mail it to them. I don't no what the boys will think about them, but I know I'm sending with love.

Pattern for these hearts came from Planet M Files

Christmas Crafts

Here are a couple things I made for Christmas gifts.

I will give a book that I have read and I think and hope the person I give it to likes it lol and I made this book marker to go with it.

 I challenged some of my craft friends to make ATCS. I made mine I hope I will get one back.

  I hope the person I gave it to enjoys it. Crochet snowflake garland

 You no I made a card and I forgot to scan it. Oh well Chow
 

Recycled Walker-Wheelchair Bags.

My grandmother has started useing a walker and I have seen others that have bags on them so they can carry anything they need with them. I found these bags and fell in love with them because they are made out of the plastic bags that we all collect. Here is the Patteran for them. http://www.myrecycledbags.com/2007/10/13/wheelchair-walker-tote-bag/
