A new day~ Thankful..

This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind... let it be something good. -Author Unknown

   
   When I wake in the morning I get kisses from both my husband, and my beautiful daughter. They mean the world to me. (Of course I can't forget about our little pug) He is usually all over me, from morning to night.
I thank God for yet another beautiful day. A day filled with laughter, hugs,  kisses, conversation, learning, playing, and so much more. The days go by so quickly...I've learned that we all must slow down sometimes and enjoy these little moments.  I absolutely love life, and I am thankful that I have been given life. -Stephanie
 
{Breakfast time with my munchkin}
My daughter loves helping with breakfast,
 I usually let her stir, or add in ingredients. :)
She's such a great little helper!
 
 
 
                                                            {Let's make music}
 We dance, and sing, and just love being silly together,
and when my husband gets home after work
  my little one has daddy join in!
(Oh and yes a dance off is always such fun in our home)
 
 
{The beauty of nature}
When the weather is nice out, we love exploring nature,
Something about fresh air, and a walk with my family
is pure bliss.

Little Clay Bowls.

Little clay bowls  I created these simple textured clay bowls, and I'd love it if you created some too! Take some clay and mold them into a round bowl shape. I used air-dry clay for this project.  Allow it to dry completely overnight. Then take some paint and mix a few colors together and paint each bowl. I'm using these cute handmade clay bowls to store some of my jewelry in them.   Enjoy~ **Hello to all my readers, and welcome new readers. It's such a pleasure to have you come along on my journey.

Transform your old wooden craft project into an adorable bunny floral arrangement through upcycling. This fun DIY project repurposes old items from a previous craft into something new and beautiful.  Today, I'd love to share how I took my Bunny plaque, which I purchased last year from Dollar Tree, along with a wooden crate box from a previous craft, and created a new display. We're making an adorable bunny floral arrangement that is perfect for the Easter or Spring season.
