During difficult times, it can be encouraging to have visual reminders of the things you love. Vision boards make a great DIY project for focusing your attention on the things that matter most. As you list out ideas and look through photos, you are sure to be cheered by great memories and by dreams that make your heart soar. Here are a few different ideas to help you envision what shape your vision board could take.
Now is a great time to prepare for Mother’s Day and Close To My Heart has you covered! You can create personalized, hand-made artwork to show Mom just how much she means to you using these three *NEW* exclusive stamp sets designed specifically with Mother’s Day in mind.
Two days ago I shared Close To My Heart’s announcement that they were going to host an all-day FREE Virtual Craft Day to celebrate National Scrapbooking Day. Since 1994, National Scrapbooking Day has always been the first Saturday in May–making it May 2nd this year. For many, going to a traditional all-day crop or other crafting event is out of the question. From basic social distancing to Shelter-in-Place Orders this just isn’t possible.
Today I want to share with you a couple of adorable (and easy!) Wooden Easter Banners that are available from Close To My Heart. There’s still time to order your own DIY Banner Kit and put it together by yourself or if you have kids, have them join in on the fun! They are so quick to put together that you’ll have it ready in time for Easter.
Today’s inspiration is all about preparing for Easter. This morning my daughter asked me if we would be doing anything for Easter since we didn’t really do much for St. Patrick’s Day. (I generally try to decorate our home, even if it’s only a tiny amount, as well as to do or make something a little extra special for that particular holiday to make it more memorable.) Well, with all that is going on around the world with COVID-19, I admit our St. Patrick’s Day didn’t quite live up to past ones.
When it’s Monday and you have a feeling it’s going to be a tough one, chocolate might be the answer!
