Baby and Baby Horse

My sister works for a guy who's sister races barrel horses. Well this morning one gave birth to a Cremello colt. She called to tell me about it and mentioned taking a photo of my daughter with the new baby. That was all she had to say! We went over in and instant! We took some time petting and talking to Mama horse so she would feel comfortable with us. And this is what we captured! He was only a couple hours old and if we would waited until he was much older, we may not have gotten any photos. This was a once-in-a-lifetime photo opportunity and my daughter and I will cherish this forever! Her bedroom is cowgirl themed, so this will match perfectly.


We also got one of Mama and baby horse with Auntie and my daughter.

Bottle Cap Coasters

Image
Once again, it’s that time of the year again… Time to make a homemade Christmas gift for our annual exchange! My family is ‘outdoorsy’ and the gift needs to remain gender neutral. After looking through the internet for ideas, I decided on two things I could pair together. Today I decided to tackle the first project… Bottle cap coasters. Materials (for one coaster): 9 Bottle Caps 6 Eye pins Hammer Nail Board Black Felt             I purchased a package of 315 eye pins from Wal-Mart for $4 and 9”x12” sheet of black felt from Michaels for 30 cents. One sheet fit 6 coasters with a little left over.                                Directions: 1.        Collect 9 bottle caps you want to use in your coaster. And arrange as you...

Nesting Boxes

Image
While shopping at Easter this spring, my husband talked me in to buying some baby chicks. I am not a chicken person, especially roosters. But the thought of raising our own eggs and having garden fertilizer appealed to me. So we got 6 hens and a rooster. We had an old chicken coop on the farm, however the nesting boxes were not in it. After looking at how much they cost (approximately $25 and up depending on how elaborate you want to get) I decided to put my shop skills to use and make my own. I looked at a few different plans online and decided on this one because of the low cost and we had the materials on hand. Materials: 5 gallon bucket with snap on lid Drill Utility knife Drywall screws 2x4’s 2x6’s Directions: I used a bucket that contained drywall plaster; it’s a little shorter than a regular 5 gallon bucket and they fit in our coop better. It was clean and had a good fitting lid. I removed the handle and lid first. I then cut one lid so approximately 1/3 r...

Recycled Gift Tags

Image
Every Christmas I get numerous Christmas cards from family and friends. They are nice and thoughtful, but every year I don’t know what to do with them. It is impossible to save them all, but it is also such a waste to throw them away. So I give them new life by creating them into gift tags! They are very simple or you can make them more detailed, depending on how crafty you want to get! It’s a good project for the kids too.   Materials:   Old Christmas cards Scissors Stencils (I use cookie cutters) Glue stick (Optional) Colored paper (Optional) Ribbon (Optional) Hole punch (Optional) Directions: 1.        Start by spitting the cards in half. Remove the part with the writing and throw away (or recycle!) 2.        Choose what design you want from the picture of the card. Some cards have definite pictures with lines you can simply cut and follow and others may have options for more...
