One of my absolute favorite gifts we have received was the GoPro HERO camera from my in-laws a few years back for the holidays. I am not kidding when I say it is one of the best gifts we have received as I love to capture our family’s adventures on film and video. We brought it down to the pool and we have some great videos of my daughter doing flips off the side of the pool (with bated breath from good ‘ol mom) and pretending she is a mermaid underwater. …

The Perfect Gift for Father’s Day!
Last week my daughter’s teacher gave this adorable succulent gift to the volunteer’s that helped out this year. She had all the children sign the glass vase with their names. I thought this would make the perfect Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Grandparent’s Day and yes, Teacher Appreciation Day gift! For Father’s Day – you can have your kids write Happy Father’s Day and then have them sign it. Or whatever strikes your fancy! A favorite quote perhaps?

She said she used succulent’s from her mother’s garden and made about 20 of them. Personalized gifts…

There are a ton of ideas on how to incorporate balloons into a birthday party, baby shower, or even surprise someone special with a box of balloons on their doorstep. I might be an adult now (and forever 28 years old) but I still love love balloons and would be totally thrilled to either get or give a box of balloons! At my daughter’s birthday parties they always play a part…

Garden :: DIY Succulent Gift Ideas
Succulents are one of my absolute favorite types of plants because they take minimal care and I love how they will surprise you with their infrequent blooms. There are so many interesting ways to use them as accents in your garden or indoors as a table accent. And they are perfect to give as gifts. It is a pretty inexpensive yet unique present to give to the plant lover, friend or your child’s schoolteacher. We found some unique DIY ideas you can do with the kids! Some are large projects and would be more costly as you need several plants and others would take just one succulent. The skies the limit with…
