Vintage Paper Dolls

Vintage Paper Doll
In 2009 I digitized these beautiful paper dolls from a vintage wrapping paper.  These can be printed on card stock and enjoyed.  Paper dolls seem to be a long lost pastime for many.  Print and cut these out and care them with you on road trips or for quite time at home.  

You get :
1 doll,
5 outfits 
2 hats.

​This small purchase is so much appreciated.  It helps put food on my families table.  Thank you.

This is a great project for a lazy afternoon.  I made this while the kids took their Sunday afternoon naps.  I snagged a giant pickle jar from my grandmother for this one,  but you can use any large canister.

My Favorite Teacher Gifts
​I saw this idea here and loved it.  It was much easier to make than it looks and saved me TONS of money this year on gifts.  I found these miniature wash tubs for  3/$1 and bought little hand towels to go with the soap 18/$4.  I'll let Amy from The Idea Room tell you how it's done.  My total cost for each gift was $2.22 per teacher.

A Grateful Jar Full of Stars

A dear friend shared an idea of writing something you are thankful for every week all year long on a little sheet of paper and putting it in a jar to reflect on at the end of the year. I immediately thought of how fun this would be for my kids but with a twist.

A Jar a Full of Stars

Once upon a time I used paper stars in a jar as incentives for my first graders. They loved it when I handed them a little paper star for doing well. I could whip on up fast and their eyes would glow. The could keep them or add them to a jar we were filling for a party day or cupcakes for good behavior. This is a twist on the stars those babies loved.
