craft ideas

Well, ity seems lots of us are crafty girls so thought we could post our ideas about craft projects...although I'll admiot most of mine are half-comlpeted in the closet.

have a couple of cool things that I stole from Little treasures. When we lived in japan, I assigned each friend or family member a letter of the alphabet to draw. Jake has a neat alphabet frieze now, made by all the members of our family!

I'm also planning on writing him a book, filled with stories of his family. Like how my father lost his front teeth (biking through a swamp for a compettiion with his brothers when he wasw 15).

another idea i have, but not sure if I'll actually do it, is to make sets of cards with photos of family. Like memory.

When Jake was first born I cut out interesting pictuers from the magazines and stuck them in a cheap photo albulm. He LOVES looking at it. I also made him a small photo album of his family to loko at and he loves that too. He loevs looking at pics of himself.

So any other ideas that I can start, and then not finish??

Haha this topic made me laugh, I always start things and never finish them.. I bought a book thinking I would try scrapbooking.. haven't done anything yet

I like the picture album thing though, my friend has done that and I keep meaning too.. hmm..

One thing I've done is to stick all of Ella's birth cards in a scrapbook, and her first birthday ones too.. my mum did it for me and it was cool looking back at all the cards from different birthdays. on some of them she wrote the presents I got from different people too.

I'll try and think of some more ideas
