I'm more excited about the tooth fairies on these little bottles. I think they'll be cute to keep little baby teeth in when they fall out.
Ok, that's all I can handle for today. It's time to get ready for dinner and then my drive back to West Monroe. I hope yall enjoyed all the glasses today. They're pretty much all for sale, so send me an email at jennifer.roubique@yahoo.com if you're interested in buying one. I think our grand total for glasses made today is 59. It seems more like 1,059. Have a good evening!
We're going to dinner with Angie and her son Mark tonight, so she'll give the bowl to her then. I've got one more post for tonight, so be sure and come back later!
I absolutely love these butterflies from the Home Accents cricut cartridge. They turned out great on these tall parfait glasses.
I wasn't sure if I would still have more after this, but don't worry, there is still more to come. Let me get back to etching!
Below are some cute little parfait glasses that we etched with little kids eating ice cream cones. The little girl on the right with pigtails is just adorable, but I had to do some of the little boy too.
At last count, we have etched 47 glasses since starting last night, and we're still etching up a storm. I'm trying not to show all of the duplicates. I know I've got 2 more sets, but after that I'm not sure what we've got.
Hopefully they will like these glasses. They wanted their names and the date on them. I made the date a little smaller so that their names would be the main focus.
He loves the Atlanta Braves. He was already impressed by the ULM & La Tech glasses, but the Braves glass definitely will be his favorite.
I do love how it turned out. James keeps talking to Aunt Pat about how when she gets SCAL2 she can work the Cricut while he works the computer. He'll have a glass made with every picture he finds on the internet!
I love how beautiful these are, so I might have a little trouble letting them go. Then again, everything has a price!
One day I'll learn to take better pictures. The glash helps the image show up better, but it also causes glares on the glass.
Be back in an hour for more fun from Jordan Hill! For those of you not from around here, Jordan Hill (pronounced Jerdan Hill) is the area out in the woods where Aunt Pat lives. I had to turn my cell phone off because I don't get coverage out here. Internet access is not the same as at home either, but I'm not gonna let that stop me from sharing all my fun stuff with yall!
This first scene is of a small child having a cup of tea at a little table adorned with a scalloped tablecloth.
The last bowl in the set features a little girl placing her baked goodies in the oven. I guess she could be pulling them out of the oven.
I'm doing 2 sets of these trifle bowls and also putting the same images on 3 glass bowls with plastic lids. Be sure to let me know what you think!
The first 2 I'd like to show you are the glasses I made for 2 of my co-workers who are working today. The office is pretty quite I'm sure since I'm not there :)
Joey's favorite present was New Super Mario Bros for the Wii. He also got a new flat screen tv, so we took it upstairs and hooked the Wii up so he could play for a little while. He keeps running downstairs to tell me about each awesome level on the game.
It took less than an hour to get them all put together, then they were asking for their next present! They enjoyed the slinkies, the puzzles, the matchbox cars, the foam t-ball set, the soccer ball, and especially the kazoos. Then Pops & Gramma let Anthony open his outside present -- a bike.
He loves his new bike! Momma gave the boys each a bicycle horn, so we'll have to attach Anthony's to his new bike. The kids let me open one of my presents early. It's a gorgeous laptop bag. Not your ordinary black case, either. It's brown, yellow, and red and absolutely perfect. We're getting ready to eat some homemade pizzas for dinner along with lots of other goodies we've been snacking on. I've gotta let Joey play Farkle on Facebook now, but I hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas Eve!
Beautiful huh? Yeah, well, here are the actual houses. We'll start with the 3 houses that Mike, Gina, & Anthony made.
It just doesn't get any prettier than that does it? They really were harder than expected, plus Anthony, well, he's a special kind of help. The ones below were made by me & Joey.
Of course the pictures didn't turn out great, but the glasses are just what I had hoped for. I used some blue glasses I've had for a while now since Tech's colors are blue and red. The first glass has Tech's main logo and the second glass features the Tech bulldog.
Joey got to bring Carlo the elf home from school because he showed good citizenship this week. He also got to wear the elf hat.
I definitely think we've found a yearly tradition here. Maybe when the kids get a little older, when can each do our own house. I hope yall are having a great Christmas season!
Ta-da! All done finally! We wrapped the presents on Saturday, so we piled them under the tree and put out our other Christmas decorations. Each of the boys got to arrange a Nativity set on the fireplace. I hope your Christmas festivities are going nicely.
