American Flag Window

I love Americana things. My family room is all Americana , so when I saw this I knew I had to make one. I contacted Stacie and she said I could post it on my blog to share. You can find her tutorial here. http://www.u-createcrafts.com/2010/06/creative-guest-painted-flag-window.html

Grandma's Chit Chat Blog

My mom has a new blog. It is called Grandma's Chit Chat. My mom is at a stage in her life where all the kids are gone from home and my Dad retires this year so she decided to start blogging about life after kids. She has a couple of guest bloggers that post beautiful pictures of hikes and trails. My mom is big into family history, writing, family... It is a fun little blog.

New Family Chore Chart "B"

The Family Chore chart is very popular so we decided to come up with a new way to display the names. This is called the Family Chore Chart "B" on our website. This vinyl will be available June 18, 2010 for purchase. Instead of having the names listed and the Done at the end of the board, this board has each name with a To do and a Done under it. This is an 8x24 inch board and it will only display 4 names or less.

Twins Baby Room

My friend had twins and she asked me to make some vinyl for her baby's room. This is how it came out. I just love this room. If you want some vinyl made that is not on our website, email us @ vinylgiftsandmore@gmail.com and let us know what you would like to make. I can't promise we can make everything, but we will try to help.

Monogram Fits a 6x6 tile or 8x8 glass block

This monogram is very popular so we decided that we needed to make one that will fit a 6x6 inch tile and an 8x8 inch glass block. Most people order this monogram in black, but we wanted to show you that it would be fun in any color. The gold would be great for an anniversary party.

Last Minute Teacher Gift

Here is a fun quick gift idea. I have been busy with kids, church, school and life that I forgot that I needed to make teachers gifts for the end of the school year. I remembered years ago that I use to make these cute cans and give them away for gifts. They are great for last minute and everyone loves them. I showed my friend how to make them, and now she is going to make one for her husband on Father's day.

Supplies you need:
1. (1) can that has a pop top on top and a normal ridge on the bottom. (Dole fruit cans are the best for this. Campbell's soup cans have a pop top but they changed the bottom of their cans so they are rounded and you can use them.)

2. Safety can opener (You can find these at Walmart or Kmart) (You have to use the safety can opener because it cuts it in a way that you can glue the bottom back on.)

3. Scrap booking paper, Ribbons, any decoration you like to decorate the outside of the can.

4. Strong glue and double sided tape (the tape is for putting on the scrap book paper but you can you glue too.)

5. Fun things to fill the can. (I used chocolates and a gift card to fill mine, but you can fill it with anything. If you are making one for your husband on Father's day you can stick a tie in it.)

How to make:

1. Cut the bottom of the can off with the safety can opener. Empty the food out of the can. Clean the clean with soap and water and dry it with a towel. Take the label off the can too.

2. Decorate the outside of the can. I used scrap booking paper and stamps. You can use what ever you like.

3. Fill the can full of fun stuff

4. Glue the bottom of the can back on with strong glue. I ended up using a glue gun.

5. It is now ready to give.

Freedom Vinyl

I can't believe it is already June. Today is the last day of school for my kids. I am actually really excited to have them home! I might not be saying the same thing next week. :) Time is going by so fast so I thought it would be a great time to start posting some patriotic crafts. This freedom vinyl is on a 6x6 tile. It would be a cute table top decoration if you are in charge of decorating for the 4th of July. If you have any questions about any of our crafts or vinyl, please contact us at vinylgiftsandmore@gmail.com.

Let it Snow Vinyl

I know it is June, and we are praying for sun not snow, but I wanted to show these cute little tiles. This vinyl is shown on a bathroom 6x6 tile that we purchased for .38 cents. Got to love that price. This would be a great gift for a neighbor or friend during the winter season. It would also be a fun craft to do at a Super Saturday. You could put it on a wood block and put a ribbon around it and it would be adorable.
