Sick Day Crafts

Little Thing 2 was home sick yesterday so I did not take Little Thing 3 in to town for preschool so that meant I had some spare time, in between changing out the bags in the throw-up bucket, at home.

I reorganized my craft storage armoire and in the process decided to do some crafts.

First I covered these little holder thingies on my fridge...



And these magnets as well...


I used modge pog and scrapbook paper and made them look like this...


I found the little holders at the dollar store just before school started. I use them to hold box tops and coupons and other little things. The magnets I found at Walmart and I have the perfect size circle punch to fill the little indented circle area.
The paper I found at Hobby Lobby and it matches these other glass magnets I made a while ago.


Next, since I took down all the Halloween stuff ( I can hear the hubs saying, "THANK YOU!"- he's not a fan of Halloween) I thought it was time to have some Thanksgiving stuff up.

I found this cute printable at A Step In The Journey.

I printed it out and out it in a $ Tree frame. I made the little burlap flower and hot glued it to the frame.



I wrapped burlap with some jute rope around a glass hurricane ($ Tree) and put some ($ Tree) flowers in it.


And I moved some of our outdoor pumpkins inside...


Definitely more of a fall Thanksgiving look.

As much as I hate having a sick child at home, it gave me some down time to do these fun easy crafts.

Little Thing 2 is doing much better today, btw, and is finally keeping liquids and crackers down. She will probably be well enough to head back to school tomorrow. :)
