Fun Friday

Here are some great DIY projects that are cheap, and most of the tools you have laying around your home! Enjoy!

This punch was AMAZING … so good. Very refreshing, very crisp … perfect for a baby shower! I found the recipe on Pinterest, but here it is for y’all as well:
1 cup Countrytime Lemonade mix {or the likes}
2 cups cold water
1 can of chilled pineapple juice {46 oz}
2 cans chilled Sprite {or the likes}
Mix together and add lemon slices to make pretty … FIN.

Here's the method: All you need is a sharpie (any color) and a porcelain dish that you want to permanently alter. You can even use super cheap mugs from the dollar store to create gifts or party favors. Just draw on the surface of your mug and bake it for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Allow them to cool completely before washing or using.



centerpieces!!!


Photo Centerpiece How-To...
Disassemble three like-sized frames, setting aside their fronts and discarding their backings. Paint or stain wooden frames desired color; let dry. Upload or scan photographs into a computer. With editing software, make the images black and white, and resize them to fit your frames. Print them onto vellum paper with an ink-jet printer. Slip the images into the frames. Using cloth tape, hinge frames together to form a triangle. Stand frames around a candle in a protective glass holder.

Marvelous Monday!

My deepest apologies for postponing Fun Friday (or "Marvelous Monday"). We will resume our regular schedule this Friday, which means that this week you get TWO extra special posts! Since the holidays are coming up (ready or not), it's about that time that a lot of you are taking your family photos for a holiday card. Tired of doing the same old thing? Check out these shots to get some unique ideas!


For the offbeat family, take it Jackson Pollock style and get a little dirty like this family did on their paint shoot.


There must be something in the water.


It's all about the angles. Or the diamonds in this case.



Try a different perspective!


Be sure to capture your good side.


Or try your hand at photoshop to let your personalities shine.



Aerial shots are a playful way to send holiday greetings!




Say it with chalk!


Or a sign.


A picture's worth a thousand words.


How about an action shot?


Go clean with all white (or neutrals).


Try a progression.


Jump around!


And remember, you can't have too much of a good thing.
