Make It Do Monday - Project: Give Thanks

Sunday, November 20, 2011


My quest to simplify & appreciate moves on...and just in time for the season of thankfulness and giving. 

I made this little thankful board for our family to come together and share what we really appreciate. Not only is the end product rewarding but it was fun to do together...and we can just keep adding to it this week.


For our crafts and holiday decorations this year, I've been trying to create ones that can move on with the seasons and be reused. So just like my felt flower wreath, this frame with linen-covered cork board can be re-purposed (I'm thinking advent design or tree with handmade ornaments)


From Jack: "cat, mom, dad, Luke"  (Love!) 




To make this board, I took a yard sale find frame painted it and inserted a cork board I covered with linen. I trimmed card stock into these tag shapes & added dried leaves we collected on our nature walk.  


Happy giving thanks week!


ps. thank you for all the lovely feedback and sharing on last week's post; Saying Goodbye to Someday
