PREVIEW

Well, today has won, most things on my to do list have been added to tomorrow's.  Surprisingly, I am okay with it.  The girls and I have spent more time bonding and less time doing today, and I have enjoyed it.  We try to craft after lunch on Friday's, but I don't think any of us felt like it today.  All of this to say, my mantel is not complete like I thought it would be.  There is always tomorrow, right.  I thought I would go ahead and give you  a glimpse of things to come.


I love this idea and am happy with the way it came out.  I do wish I had a better camera and computer skills, but here is to working with what you have.  I hope to have the whole thing finished this weekend and show you next week.   HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND.

Oh, so cute! I did something similar for a "belly shot" while pregnant with my second and it is my all time favorite pic. Although, I don't have that one out for display :). Thanks for sharing and linking up!
