In my attempt to find one million handmade gifts to give my in-laws, here's another one...ha! I had the kids paint these frames from Michael's with acrylic paint (1.50 each). I bought a container of bells and adhered them (with some annoying help from C) to each frame with hot glue. I then photoshopped a Santa hat on a picture of each kid that I liked (hats found
here). (P.S. Thanks to
Shannon for the Photoshop idea!)
The kids loved making these. I dunno how many things I can make for my in-laws without them just politely storing them in a closet...we shall see!
Positive note of the day: Watched two movies I quite enjoyed the last couple of days: "The Other Guys" and "Easy A". Do I have to go back to work?

What a fab idea for in-law gifts! Love the hat!
This is cute!
We watched The Other Guys on Christmas eve and will probably do the Easy A sometime this weekend...lol
LOL!!! I should give this a try :>) Start the kids early and by next Christmas we will have a boat load of gifties (literally, since we take the ferry to visit my in-laws :>) )
Such a fun giftie for the g'parents.
Happy New Year Allison!
this is so very fun. I have a big shelf of pictures of my kids at Christmas in all sorts of fun frames...way back years ago even. They love seeing them displayed every year during the holidays. Great fun!
How fun and cute! Love this idea.
Wishing you and your family a very Happy New Year!
It's movie and junk food night for us. Party On!
Toooooo CUTE!!! Happy New Year!
Both the frame and the photo are adorable!
What a great idea, Allison!
How fun!! Hope 2011 brings lots of happiness your way!
What a cute gift! I watched Easy A and liked it too, haven't seen the other guys yet but did watch the Wall Street movie last night...it was ok.
Wow! What an awesome project! Love your idea with the jingle bells so much!
Happy New Year to you and family, Allison!
I love how you've added the bells to the frame, and photoshopped the hat!! Great work, Allison!!
