About Me

Hi, I'm Mia. I love crafts, homeschooling and living in different countries. In Central America and Mexico it became somewhat of a challenge to make things. I learned to use articles on hand and a lot of imagination. One very big inspiration for me was when I watched a mother cleaning a chicken. As her little boy skipped by he paused and started looking at the "guts" that she had just placed in a bowl. He pulled out what looked to be the stomach. He then cleaned it up. Placing it to his mouth, he began to blow it up. It was now a balloon. His mother turned and smiled at him as he skipped off to show his prize to his friends. It was then that I challenged myself to make or create things without spending a lot of money. I enjoy using things I already have or can purchase inexpensively. You can do it too. Take the challenge.

SCRAPPING 80th BIRTHDAY PARTY


I surprised everyone on my mom's 80th birthday party.  I had all the scrapping material laid out for a scrap book party.  Everyone was a little hesitant at first but then even the guys got interested.  It made for great conversation and plenty of laughs.  
 I used 8x8 inch paper and they decorated the front and back of it.  They made a space to put a picture.  
The boys had as much fun as the girls.
 I took pictures from the paper and developed them and added them to her book.  She is still very proud of that book and that party.
