Holiday Button Tree Ornaments

I made these Pinterest inspired tree button ornaments to give as a gift to my teacher friends at our holiday party. I bought 8 count button packs (in various colors), gold stretchy ribbon and a pack of stars. I strung the buttons largest to smallest with the star on top and tied the two ends of ribbon together to make a hanger for the ornament. I could've added smaller buttons for a trunk but did not.

Favor Envelopes:
I created favor envelopes by cutting scrapbook Christmas paper into half, folding it and sewing it closed. Easy, small, and relatively inexpensive gifts to give (cute too)!
Gotta love Pinterest!

Wooden letters accent

As I redo the kitchen, I've been thinking about new accent pieces for above my kitchen cabinets. I was surfing the web for ideas and I saw this! E-A-T! I found a great assortment of unfinished letters at JoAnn so I chose a plain style. They were about $5 each. I spray painted them my accent color Colonial Red. I think this is a cute accent idea for the kitchen!

2.9.11 Kitchen Redo

This is not my kitchen but the cabinets are almost the exact same color as the ones in my kitchen. Time for a makeover! I did not want to take apart and sand my cabinets (lazy, right?) so I chose to use this Zissner cover stain. It is amazing stuff! You can find it at Lowe's. It covers and creates a surface that will be ready for your paint! http://www.lowes.com/pd_192480-90-3501_0 __ Here is my kitchen with a base coat in process. I decided to do two coats just to be sure my surface was prepared. After one evening of drying time, I started painting my cabinets. I decided to go with Valspar paint from Lowe's. I chose Kettle Black . After two coats of Kettle Black, I covered my cabinets with a coat of Valspar clear coat . This gave my cabinets another layer of protection. Here are my finished cabinets! I am very pleased with the final product!...
