A Craftastic Weekend

This weekend was rainy and SO cold!!! I stayed indoors and had fun crafting! Here are two of the projects I worked on:

Our Family Rules Canvas

Rich and I have been talking about coming up with a list of family rules and values for our growing family to abide by in our home. I wanted to find some fun way to display our rules for all to see who visit our home.We are a military family which means we move often. So, our family rules need to be portable. After doing some blog hopping I came across a blog where a woman did a similar project using scrapbook paper, a canvas, paint and Mod Podge. It was my first time using Mod Podge and I loved it! I called Rich and we came up with these family rules. Here is a detailed view of my family rules canvas.

Here are our rules.

I'm not sure if the picture shows them that well. :)

1.Love the Lord with your heart, mind & soul.

2. Make choices that honor Jesus in all you do!

3. Husband love your wife. Wife respect your husband.

4.Children obey your parents.

5. Be nice to your siblings... encourage & believe in them. Share in their joy! Lift them up during their trails.

6. Have a grateful heart. Focus on what you do have & not on what you don't.

7.Value our family & traditions.

8. Pray & Thank God for our family.

9. There is no mine in this house, it's all God's!

Custom Baby Wipe Case

I had some leftover material from another project I am working on for the baby. I decided to make a baby wipe case that Rich won't mind using when he takes little Robert out. Here it is. This was so fun to make I am now making the baby a matching burp cloth and blanket to go with it. :)

Supplies

Ribbon I used around the edge.
