The Promised Christmas Gift Post :-)

Ok, life has somewhat slowed down now that Christmas is over. So, here goes :-)

For Christmas Troy and I decided to make picture tiles for the family. Part of our reason for this was that we had family wedding pictures that we wanted to use and wanted to do something other than just frame them. They are pretty easy to make, once you get the hang of it.....the process leading up to that, well, let's just say that if you want to make them ask me, I think I learned all the things not to do along the way :-P Basically you take a tile, attach a hanging device on the back, print out picture, cut to size you want, glue on tile (that's the version without all the mistakes in it). While they did not turn out quite as nice as I would have liked (I'm a little bit of a perfectionist at times....) they were a nice way to say "we love you" to the family and were fun to make with the hubby. Now, time to start thinking about Christmas next year....and Birthdays.....yikes, maybe I should stop wanting to be crafty.....
