Monday Made It: Merry Kiss-Mas!!

I'm linking up with 4th Grade Frolics for a Christmas Monday Made it Edition!

Have you tried these A-MAAAA-ZING kisses?!?! Oh my word.. I could eat an entire bag! Well, so could my toddler. Which brings me to this blog post..

You would think, being a "stay at home" mom I would make all kinds of crafts and cute things for her class and teachers at her mother's day out program.. Well, I don't! I just get busy with stuff at home, pampered chef, my blog, my tpt stuff.. ya know LIFE! So, I was determined to make something (ANYTHING) to take to her class for their Christmas party... and no I was not taking cupcakes!!! UGH- hated that as a classroom teacher.

I made these simple little tags. You can grab them for FREE here.

And went to work...

Only about 30 minutes later.. I had them finished. Yay!!!

I might be just a bit proud of my Pinterest inspired student gift.

These would be the perfect Christmas present to your students without spending a ton of money.. just saying!

Made it Monday!!

I'm linking up with 4th Grade Frolics for Made it Monday!

I'm pretty sure this is the first time I have linked up... #lame So, I have tried to get my act together and start planning out my blog posts. I am trying to have the mind set that, just like in a classroom, you have to plan ahead. Hopefully I will stick with it!

My first project I made was 10 freezer meals using my Pampered Chef recipes and spices. It only took me about 2 hours to do on my own. The hubs' mouth was watering the whole time. And to be honest, mine was too!

Email me if you're interested in making 10 freezer meals: bbaxter711@hotmail.com.

Next, I actually finished a DIY project. You would think me being a "stay at home mom"... I would be all crafty and have a perfectly clean house. Well, that is definitely not true!

I made my sweet girl is a bow holder!!!

I seriously LOVE how it turned out!!! As you can see I had to make two... I'm sure eventually I will have to make a third.. It's not my fault-- bows just make every outfit look so much cuter!
