Candied Coin Rolls

I Santa used Martha Stewart's idea to make these Candy Coins for the kids stockings:
They love putting coins in their piggy banks, so this is a perfect stocking stuffer. (Ironically, they will also be getting chocolate coins in their stockings)

Merry Christmas from Your Peeps Gifts

I saw this cute idea on Pinterest just in time to make it for my Mia Maid girls:

I have the best advisor!! I showed her the idea and she did all the shopping for me, so it was super easy!! (Thanks, Nicole!)

(It would also be cute for VT) The idea comes from Bloom Designs. You can get personalized tags from her....I just made my own using her basic design 'cause I wanted to hurry and get them done and delivered :)

So I've never tried this, but I saved my file as a jpeg so it could be printed from my blog. (so if you try to print it before I do, you'll have to let me know if it works) I got 4 tags on an 8x10 and printed on cardstock:

Snowman on the Fridge...redo

So this year we did the snowman on the fridge again, but instead of using paper, I made the face out of felt and the scarf out of fabric. (Paper scarfs don't hold up too well with several little kids dribbling water down the fridge when they fill their cups)

Weekly Planner

I also decided to get our family more organized with a weekly calendar. This came as a one piece frame at Michaels. I got it on sale for around $13. Then I added the vinyl to the glass. It also has changeable papers, so here is Christmas:

Menu Board

In an attempt to get more organized, I made this fun Menu Board. I found a tall frame at Michaels for around $5. I used vinyl on the glass and a dry erase marker to update our weekly menu. I like that I can change out the papers to match the season...here it is in Christmas:

Christmas Printable

I love how you can find nice printables to fill in around the home. I found this one on pinterest and printed it off ZsaZsaBellagio. I printed it on red cardstock and really liked the look.

Warm Santa Hats

I had fun making these winter Santa hats for my kids. They were super excited to wear them! I made them up as I went along....and was happy with the results:
They wore them this weekend while we went out doing some of our Christmas fun:
