So now since I am not working or going to school I have found that I have more time to make stuff. Here are all my recent crafts. 
I made this super cute rag blanket for me and the girls to cuddle and read books in. All the colorful flannel pieces were given to me because my sister in law didn't want them and I thought they would make a fun blanket. The back is minky fabric which is so soft but also pretty expensive but I had a coupon so I got it for pretty cheap.
These are super cute valentines mailboxes I made for us. We got the mailboxes in the $1 section at target and got candlesticks at the thrift store. I just modge podged paper onto the mailboxes and painted the candle sticks to match. I think that they turned out adorable. Now we just have to fill each others with valentines :)
My mother-in-law cut these snowmen for me a couple years ago and I decided it was time to get them out and paint them and put them together. I think that they turned out really cute. The snow is gone now but I am excited to put them out next year at Christmas time.
I made this chalkboard "I love you because..." sign. I just used a frame I have had pictureless for a while and sprayed chalkboard paint on the cardboard piece in it and cut vinyl letters for it.
I also made this little high waisted skirt for Oakley. It's kind of funny looking but I kind of like it. I found the red fabric at the thrift store. And I know the shirt and shoes she is wearing looks especially good with it :)
Brett and I got into playing scrabble lately so I made us some scrabble stuff. Brett's mom has all this craft stuff just laying around so she gave me all the supplies and she even had a couple old scrabble games up in the closet (she is a great thrifter). I covered the magnet board with old dictionary paper and then just put magnets on the back or each scrabble piece. Now I can hang this in the hall and we can have an ongoing game of scrabble everyday. (or use it for little love notes or whatever or even to help the kids learn their letters)
And my last project I just finished are these scrabble coasters. All you do is super glue the scrabble letters together then glue the whole thing onto a piece of thin cork board and cover the top with modge podge. I might make a couple more but I was tired of getting super glue all over my fingers.
I am going to start substitute teaching soon because all my paper work got approved and everything so I will have a little less time to craft but I am sure I will still make so time so more projects to come I am sure.
