Some of my Favorites from 2012

Here are six of my favorite post from 2012.

1. I love this Tooth Fairy Pillow Book I made for my grand daughter.

 2. Here's how to easily  personalize a clock for yourself or a gift. I used a vintage graphic from the Graphics Fairy on one clock.

 3. Butter Buns; need I say more?

 4. I really loved designing and making this cloth Photo Album. It was fun and turned out great.

5. I am having more fun making these Pancakes different ways. Use apple sauce or any fruit puree, use oil instead of cream cheese, add more flour and switch up the spices. Very versatile and so good.

 6. I like making my own scrapbook papers using PicMonkey. It's a great creative outlet and it was free;  PicMonkey now charges for some of it's features.  I have used Ribbet on occasion too.
I link at these parties.

    I tnink I would have picked those as my favorites, too....although I loved the seed packets - and used your idea without a flaw!

    I'm all about photos, so I adore the photo album. Though the Tooth Fairy pillow is pretty darn cool, too. Thank you for sharing in the GRAND Social!

    I think I have read everyone of those and they are great but I have to say -- I get exhausted just reading about everything you get done -- while providing day care!

    I need to try your bun recipe! I just tried out another recipe I found which claimed to produce buns a lot like how yours turned out. But that was NOT the case (still yummy though). Now that I've read your recipe, I did notice a few differences. The ones you made look DE-licious. Thanks for sharing!
