Fall Garland









I created this tag garland today for the front window. It says "Blessings" and on either side are my kids handprints. On the back side of the tag belonging to each child is a personal note to them from me with something specific I'm especially thankful for about them right now. I hope each of you are taking time to count your blessings and are having fun being creative as you decorate for the season or just survey the change of nature!

License Plate Sign

Jonas' bedroom is dark blue on the bottom half of the wall and a tan color on the top half. Jason is in the process of putting together several old WWII model airplanes to hang in there. I'm looking for just the right map to hang on one of the walls. When I saw these license plate letters I knew I needed them for Jo's room! I cut a piece of wood to the right length and then cut out a section of a map to put on the wood. I used some decopauge to stick the map to the wood.

Next, I hot glued the letters on. And this is how it turned out! Jonas was a big help and is very proud of his name sign!
