Last day to enter giveaway

Good afternoon everyone!!!

I hope yall had a wonderful easter!!  Our plans for earth day kinda went by the way side due to horrible winds and hot temperatures, but we did manage to do a few things to contribute.  I cleaned my house using scraps of old clothes instead of paper towels, we did get to paint on the back of some of Landon's school work which I have yet to take a photo of.  I also stuck to not turning my computer on for the whole day!!!  What did you do for earth day???

We had a pretty great easter, except for me getting one of my lovely migraines that ruined the day for me.  The boys still had a great time because they got to play outside with all of their cousins and hunt easter eggs and play in the sprinkler.  I will post some photos in the next couple of days.  I still have a bit of a headache today so I just wanted to get on here real quick and say hello and remind yall that today is the last day to enter in the giveaway!!  A winner will be chosen at midnight central time, so if you haven't entered yet go here before it is too late!!!  Goodluck to all of you and I'll post the winner tomorrow morning!! So until next time...........

Happy Crafting!!!

Happy Birthday, Earth Day and Good Friday!!!

Don't forget to enter the giveaway!!

Good Morning Everyone!!  (it's actually only midnight here, but I have a reason for posting this so late and addressing it as a morning post)

I want to start this post out by saying Happy Birthday to a very special woman, My Mother!!!  She is a very special lady and even though we don't get to see her as often as we'd like we can feel her love everyday!!!  So Happy, Happy Birthday Mom!!!  We love you!!  She is also so special because she gets to share her birthday with this very special planet that we live on!!

Now I'm not the greenest person in the world, but I do try to do my part in keeping our beautiful planet in wonderful shape for the future generations.  I try to re purpose everything I can get my hands on, so that does count for something right??? Well anyway,  I have a few things planned to do with my boys today to celebrate earth day so I will not be on here again until tomorrow.  See this is actually one of my contributions, I have a horrible HORRIBLE habit of leaving my computer on all day, so today I am turning the computer off as soon as I post this and I will not be turning it back on.  We are going to spend a lot of time outside today!!  One of our activities consists of planting some flowers and picking up trash at our local parks.  We are also going to use some of the (excessive amount) papers that my son brings home from school to do an art project.  If your child goes to school then you know exactly what I'm talking about!!  It's ridiculous how much paper they use in one day, let alone an entire school year, and the backs of the papers are completely reusable!!!  So what are you doing for earth day???  I will be back tomorrow to share some photos and find out how your earth day was.
So I hope you can all get outside and do something today for earth day, but if you can't here are some photos for you to look at and enjoy (after all what's a post without a photo right.)

 So until next time.............

Happy Birthday Mom, Happy Earth Day and Good Friday!!!

My first giveaway!!!

Givaway is closed!!

Hello Everyone!!!

As I promised, I'm back with some exciting news today!!!  My very first giveaway!!!  Now,  I had so much trouble deciding what to offer for this giveaway so I decided that I would start off with some craft supplies and a surprise that the winner will get to choose!!!!  The part of the giveaway that you can see is a huge bag of scrap fabric, some of the scraps are pretty decent size and the other pieces would be great for making a scrap quilt out of, a baggy full of buttons and a baggy full of ribbon.  I have several surprises that I plan on throwing in for the winner (a few fat quarters of vintage sheets hint hint) and maybe a few other things, you'll just have to win to find out!! 

The rules are as follows: (mandatory)
1. Become a follower of Thrifty crafting via. google

Extra entries for each of the following: (optional)
1. Like Thrifty Crafting on facebook
2. Blog or write about this giveaway on facebook.

Please leave a comment for each entry that you qualify for!!

Please ignore the writing on the bag I try to reuse all the Ziploc's I get as much as possible!!

All pieces of the ribbon are at least 18 inches long.

Some of these buttons are glass and some of them have rhinestones in them.  The giveaway will run for 1 week, ending next Monday.  I will choose a winner Monday night.  Good luck, I know I'm excited!!!  So until next time..........

Happy Crafting!!!!

I was featured.........

On One Pretty Thing!!!  My printables from this post we featured in her Birthday Party Roundup!!!  How exciting!!!  I love it when something I worked hard on meets someone else's approval and they feature it!!  That is always a boost of confidence!!  Have a wonderful rest of your weekend and I will be back Monday with some exciting news!!  So until then........
