Home Is Where Your Mom Is

Hi all!
Last week I finally revived my crafty creation mojo.
Not that I haven't wanted to be crafty,
I've just been b-u-s-y.
So, here's what got me going.
I have a sweet friend who is going through a divorce.
She and her adorable girls moved into our neighborhood,
a few doors down from us.
Since we'd already shown up at her house once without a gift,
I had to get with it.
My inspiration?
Home Is Where Your Mom Is.
Ever since I found out she & her girls would be starting over,
that line kept running through my mind. :)

I started with a Multipurpose Container,
$3 at the Dollar General.

Once at home it was time to fire up my trusty Cricut sidekick.

I cut all my letters on brown vinyl.

Next it was time for the tricky part...

appropriately space and place the letters . 

Much harder than it seems. :)

Now the yummy part,

add in all the goodies!

Ok at this point,

I must have gotten a little excited.

Because before I knew it I had added ribbons.

Oh how ribbons can take any project 

from drab to fab. 

Check out the cute heart on top.

No detail too small! :)

So please tell me, 

do you think it's as fabulous as I do?!

I really enjoyed my crafty creation.

I loved that it was an inexpensive

and practical gift .

Because anyone who's ever moved with children

knows you need handy snacks.

And, long after the snacks are gone

she has a sweet reminder that 

Home Is Where Your Mother Is.

Thanks for stopping by.

I can't wait to hear what you think! :D
