Day 7

Today was Mother's Day.  It was such a beautiful day overall.  I'm so glad I was able to spend time with my family and especially my Mom.  She's an awesome woman and every day I'm so grateful for her presence in my life. 

The sun was shining all day and I came home and noticed my nose is slightly burnt & red.  I'm so thankful it's finally springtime.  It was such an incredibly long winter.  I can't wait for more warm weather activities.

 

I've had these 4x4 photos for the longest time just sitting in my nightstand drawer.  I came across them last night and decided that I really needed to do something with them.  I love how this turned out.  I used some of my favorite Washi Tape.  I love the theme of yellow, blue, & red.  They are such good colors together.  They compliment each other so well. 

  I've become somewhat opposed to just regular frames or photo albums.  I'd rather have my photos displayed in an unusual way.  I feel as if they draw more attention that way. Then whenever I have company they are much more compelled to walk up, examine, & enjoy my photo's.  It's a win.

Then just for the heck of it --> I decided to take a few old school blocks & glue them together.  I had gotten them from a little shop near downtown Peoria but haven't used them.  I've had them for probably about a year now.  The door knob was just one that had been attached to a wine stopper.  I had purchased it at the Expo Garden's Flea Market but it broke.  Not the best quality apparently but i figured I'd eventually have a reason to use the knob.  This display is much cuter.  I like it a lot better!
