There is this lady that I work with who is always complaining about something. If she is not complaining about her physical ailment of the week, she is complaining about her husband. She is always upset about something in her life. I try my best to give her a good word of encouragement when I can. Most of the time, she just wants the attention. I tell her that I hope she gets to feeling better when it is something about her health. Now when it comes to her husband, the only thing I can tell her is that nobody’s husband is perfect. I know mine certainly is not. Sometimes she is complaining about the brand of coffee she buys. I don’t drink coffee so I definitely cannot help her in that area. Her topic this week was her cable TV service. I told her about our service we get at home and everything they offer at direct tv promotions. At least that was one thing that would keep her quiet for a while. You know some people cannot be happy no matter how much advice or attention you give them. Hopefully I will get moved to my new position soon and won’t have to deal with her anymore.

Anniversary Photos

Just made these quick photo displays for my Hubby for Valentine's Day (also our engagement anniversary). So very easy and I think they look really stylish. I'm going to make a whole bunch of them to display on top of our piano. The two photos above are from our wedding; on the left, a vintage mason jar votive

To make these you need:

Flat pieces of Wood
Mod Podge
Paintbrush
Black and white photo on printer paper
White Paint
Sandpaper
~Take your wood and paint it entirely with the white paint.
~Find an image you would like to use and print it in black and white on regular printer paper.
~Trim the image to fit the wood, and mod podge the image onto the wood.
~Once dry, scrape the sandpaper along the edge of the wood and the edge of the photo as well.

Ta Daa!!



I shared this post at the following parties:

A Marvelous Mess #50 and Window Hearts and Features!!!

I've got a last minute Valentine's craft for you and your kiddo's to try!! 

It's pretty simple and looks so pretty in the window!! 

I saw these at this site, though they used contact paper instead of wax paper and glue. 

For these Window Hearts you need:

Wax Paper

Cardstock 

Tissue paper

Glue

~Take your cardstock and trim out an outline of a heart.

~Hot Glue the outline of the heart to wax paper and trim it out:

~Flip it over.

~Take some tissue paper, trimmed or torn into pieces and begin glueing them to the back of the heart.

~Cover the whole thing.

~Wait for it to dry then pop it up in the window!! It looks so pretty!!

Not bad, eh?
