A T-shirt I made for hubby to wear around the house. He won't wear it anywhere else, that's for sure!!

He's very particular about what he wears in public!

Shirt was made with a Michael's shirt and Cricut vinyl.

Nature Hanger

The new challenge for JUNE is posted at ANYTHING GOES IN A CARD FREE ZONE and it's "always anything goes except cards" and this month there is no other option, just anything that is not a card. It can be a paper or non-paper creation! Have fun!

I have a afterschool daycare class and for every new theme we do, we make an ornament to put on our Christmas Tree in December. This one was made for our nature theme. It's wonderful how we had so many natural items to use and we all made different ornaments!

Large popsicle stick, twine, birdseed and wooden snowflake bought at a dollar store.

Other items are found in nature.

Sharing my project with:

~Carlin's Challenge-recycle/reuse (things from nature)

~Love To Scrap-anything goes

~A Perfect Time to Craft-anything goes

~Classic Design Challenge-anything goes

~Twisted Thursdays-anything goes

~Creative Moments-anything goes

~Allsorts-anything goes

~Ellibelle's Crafty Wednesday-anything goes

Oh, I wanted to post a couple of pictures of our afterschool Christmas Tree from last year. The children loved it because they could look at the tree and say that's the one I made. All the decorations were handmade by us.

Happy Crafting,
