Pinterest = Genius

Just what I needed- an endless supply of ideas and inspiration to feed my VISUAL appetite. Hi, my name is Julie and I am....... ADDICTED!!!!  I have found so many great ideas that we have already tried. Fall is my favorite season.....candy corn, changing leaves, acorns, the warm colors of fall. I love doing crafts with the kids but I will confess that my creative ideas for them are lacking. Now it is so easy for me to rip off  borrow ideas from all over that beautiful world wide web. Here are a few of the things I have gotten inspiration for...

The painted bubble wrap indian corn came from parents.com. I just put my own spin on it. Luke did the brown one and Sophie did the yellow one. We also painted and stamped some leaves. I will take credit for that on my own :) I am not that deficient in the craft category. Me and Luke went out and stole an ear of corn in the cornfield down the road and used that to paint with. He rolled it onto some card stock and then we cut it out into a corn shape and he also made a swirled design that we cut out into another ear of corn. Pretty cute stuff and they had lots of fun. We also did an apple stamp on burlap squares and will make a banner to hang. Photo coming soon.

Yes the craft ideas i have found are great but more than those even I love not having to remember where I have saved everything- websites, printables, curriculum ideas, etc. Now I can just LOOK right at them on my boards. YEAH!!! (Can you tell I am lovin' this?)

I know I should be blogging about something a bit more educational right? Well if Momma is happy and organized it makes that education train chug that much smoother! Yep I can rationalize anything ;o

Happy pinning, Julie
