Good finds, projects and more!

Hello girls! I'm back but still stuffed up and miserable:( Yesterday I had some extra time in between classes so I ran over to Target where I snagged this robe for Gage! It was $3.74 on clearance:) He loves anything red and still calls it "Ho, Ho, Ho!"; lol! Anything red reminds him of Santa; he's so cute! So this robe caught my eye because it has gingerbread houses on the inside of it, which you know are my absolute fave thing!! It also has little sock monkeys too. I know this isn't the nicest pic of him- but see if you can see the gingerbread houses!!

He looks so PLUMP in this robe and LOVES to wear it!

On Sunday, I made a quick trip to Good will where I found this Yankee Candle tart warmer for $2.00! The original price on the back from the store said $13.99! Its so pretty- cream colored with pink roses; it goes nicely in my living room:) I got some other things too but can't show them at this time; they are "projects/gifts" for someone!

These beachy prints are cute but I mainly wanted the frames; the paint needs to be touched up. I plan to use these with some pretty scrapbook paper that I bought from Hobby Lobby, to put in the living room as well.

I may have mentioned before that I am a Creative Memories consultant? This is the consultant magazine that we get each month; I absolutely LOOOOOVE the project idea on the cover! It reminded me of an idea that Priscilia gave us for the Vintage Valentine Swap that I am in. You can take an old valentine candy box and recover it in pretty paper. The one shown here is using one of CM's 12x12 Page Additions set that sells for $9.00; it comes with paper and stickers for Valentine's Day. They also used their different Heart Punches to create the sweet hearts around the edges!! TOO CUTE! Don't ya think???
