Recipe Book Dividers

Books, cooking, Organization, Printables, Recipes, Tutorials, , , ,

It is January and I am still trying to do a little bit of organizing, I had this BIG stack of recipes that I had printed from different websites, pages that I had ripped out of magazines and some recipes that were handwritten by myself or given to me by a friend.  So I decided that I really needed to get them all organized, since they are recipes that I use and I was getting tired of flipping through the whole entire stack to find one recipe!  As I was looking through these recipes I noticed that some of them had been printed 3 years ago!  So I would say that it was definitely time to get my act together.  :)

I went to Costco and bought this plain white binder that you can put a page in the front of it and also in the spine.  This is the 2″ size. Continue reading →

Valentines Subway Art

Crafts, For the Home, Gift ideas, Printables, Valentines, , , , , , ,

Is it too early to put out Valentine decorations?  I know the stores had them out the day before Christmas, but that is just plain crazy!  I know that there are a few of these already out there in blog land but I wanted to create my own version of a Valentines subway art.  It was fun to create and I think that perhaps I shall have to try my hand at this for Easter!

I found this frame at the dollar store and I spray painted it with a Krylon, red gloss paint.  The color really adds to the overall look of this project.

Here is the printable for you to use!  Just right click and go to copy, then open your favorite program like Word, or Presentations and right click again and go to paste.  The original is 8 x 10, but you can re-size it to whatever you would like.  I had mine printed on glossy card  stock and I think it looks great!

I have mine on my kitchen counter and it really brightens up my kitchen on these cold, dreary, winter days and makes me happy! :)   These would be a great little gift for teachers, friends, sisters, SELF etc!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

My Christmas wish for you is that your day will be filled with love and hope and that you will be surrounded with happiness!I

I love this saying, so I decided to make it into a subway art and frame it!  

If you would like to print one, just right click and go to copy, then open your favorite program like word, right click again and go to paste.  The original size is 5 x 7, but you can size it however you would like.  (I ended up printing mine 8 x 10)

Happy Holidays!

Last Minute Neighbor Gift

Christmas, Family, Gift ideas, Printables, , , ,

If you are looking for a quick, cute, easy, inexpensive neighbor gift…I have one for you.  My daughter and I found this print on pinterest  and had them printed at Alphagraphics on glossy cardstock.  Then found frames at the dollar store and spray painted them red, and glittered some of them.  And look how cute they turned out.  Quick, easy, and a great message all in one.  Tie it up with a big bow and you are done!

You can print the picture from here.  We did 8 x 10, but you could also do 5 x 7 frames.  I paired my up with a cute little angel and it makes a darling setting.

I hope that you will all have a great week this week and that the true meaning of Christmas will be with you and your family!

We celebrated our Christmas, last night with all of our families, because this is our off year with the married kids and it was great fun.  The kids did the nativity story, a post that I will have for you tomorrow.  We exchanged gifts, which the kids loved because now they all have something to play with all week while they are out of school! And it is kind of nice to be done with the bulk of my Christmas shopping, the wrapping, the food and candy making etc etc etc.  So now this week I can relax a little bit and just enjoy the season!

Happy Holidays!

How are all of your holiday preparations and shopping coming along?  I am in full speed right now, because we are basically celebrating this weekend, because it is our off year with all of the married kids!  So wish me luck, OK?

December VT Handout

Printables, VT Handouts, , ,

I love the message this month on how important EVERY sister is and how we influence so many around us!  I think that sometimes we forget how wonderful we are!

This month’s handout is a card to print, you can use it as a refrigerator magnet, a tag to tie on some goodies, (like my fudge) or make it into a card etc.

To print, just right click and go to copy.  Then open your favorite program like Word and right click again and go to paste.  This is a 4 x 6 card.  This has also been formatted to send to your favorite photo processing center and they can print it as a picture. (I send mine to Costco and they are only 16 cents each!)

Happy Visiting this Month!

 

Thanksgiving Placecards

Fall, Printables, Thanksgiving, , ,

Today I have some cute little name cards for you to print out for Thanksgiving.  All you have to do is print them, cut them out, fold in half, and write names on them.  What could be easier?  It is amazing how such a little thing like this can dress up your Thanksgiving table and make people think that you really went to a lot of work! (No one has to know!)

There are two sheets, 4 on each page, (8 total).  If you need more than that, just print duplicate pages.  To print, just right click on the image, then go to copy. Open your favorite program like word, and right click again and go to paste.  They are in 81/2 x 11 format so you can just print them from your printer!

They would be fun to pair up with a treat or some nuts.  There are all kinds of fun ideas on pinterest, follow my Fall/Autumn link if you need some other ideas!

A couple more  ideas that you could do with these printables: is to use them for a napkin ring. just cut off at the fold and wrap them around your napkins, or just use the top part for a tag to tie on a treat bag, or the top of a jar with goodies in it!  You could also use this just the way it is as a fold-over topper and staple it to the top of a small clear bag.

Oh the possibilities!

 

Give Thanks Banner

Fall, For the Home, Printables, , , ,

Here is the  cute “Give Thanks” banner that I did as the guest post last week.  It is a free printable, that you just print out, laminate if you wish and tie together with cute ribbon.  This would be cute hanging above your Thanksgiving table, a doorway, or on your fireplace.  (Look how cute it is with my Thanksgiving subway art board, that I made at Landee’s craft night!)

Here are the printables.

To print, just right click and go to copy.  Then open your favorite program, like Word,  right click again and go to paste.  They are in an 81/2 x 11 format, so you can just print them.  You can also email them to your favorite printer.  In my area (Utah) you can send them to Alphagraphics and they will print them for about 55 cents each and that is on card stock.  So that is pretty inexpensive!

I used an oval paper punch to punch out the holes, but you could just use a regular punch, or cut them out with your scissors.  The ribbons cover up the holes, so you do not see them anyway.

Happy Thanksgiving!

November Visiting Teaching Conference Bookmark

Church, Printables, VT Handouts, , , , , ,

This month for visiting teaching you will pick a talk from the conference Ensign, so for the handout, I decided to do a bookmark.

You can use it two ways.  It has a paper clip at the top so you can clip it to the page you want to save, or if you are cross referencing or studying two different talks, you can take the paper clip off and use it on another page, like this…

I cut a slit in the top of the bookmark to insert the paper clip.  Tie a couple of ribbons on the paper clip to make it a little cuter :) I think that ribbon makes everything cuter!  Some day I will show you my ribbon stash!

I had Alphagraphics print my bookmarks on a heavy, glossy cardstock and it cost me 69 cents!  I have put 4 book marks on one 81/2 x 11 sheet, so there should be enough for you to have one too!

To print, just right click and go to copy, then open your favorite program, like Word, then right click again and go to paste.  Or you can send it to your favorite copy center like I did.

 Here is the free printable for you to use:

Happy Thanksgiving to you!

We hope your family like ours, continues to have more to be thankful for each year!
