Daily Calendar or To-Do List

To-Do List at work or personal

Chores for kids

I plan to use mine as a to-do list for work.  

- Use a dry erase marker to write on the frame and erase it weekly. 

 Bought the frame with 8 sections from walmart, and the paper and letters from Michaels. 

Monogrammed Wreath

After some pinteresting of course I was inspired to make this wreath.   Everything was purchased at Michaels.  Bought the flowers and cut the stems short and used wreath wire to secure them.   My handyman then screwed in some screws to the Monogramed C.  I used the wire to wrap it around the screws and secure the C to the wreath.

My Handy Dandy Sister-in-Law

As handy as my husband is, his sister is just as crafty.   I wanted to share a couple of her recent projects that were just too cute for me not to share!  First she made this spring time wreath!

 This weekend was my mother-in-law's birthday and Sarah (my sister-in-law) made these two pillows for their beach house. Great job Sarah! 

And last but certainly not least is this towel she made me for my birthday last year.   She sewed on the little buttons and the ruffles to this dish towel.  I love it!

Sarah's husband is working on his masters and she has been busy busy with her Halloween decorations. So cute! 

Candy Jars

I bought 3 of the jars at Homegoods...it came with that lid on it, and bought the rest of the goods at Michael's. 

I painted the lids and the bottoms black and then glued the bottom on.  I also bought a wooden base at Michaels as well.   Then added a C for Camponeschi.

Olympic Party- USA, USA!

Two of our friends hosted an opening ceremony Olympic party.  Each person/couple was a different county.  Kevin and I were Mexico.   Here are some pictures from the party.

Mexico- The salsa recipe that was posted earlier this week, and Gret's guacamole, yum! 

Guac- 4 avocados, 1 plum tomato, 2 cloves of garlic chopped, lime juice from 1 lime, a handful of cilantro, salt, pepper, and a little bit of olive oil.   (optional 1 jalapeno) 

Put in 2 large margita glasses from party city.
