I kept seeing this idea pop up on Facebook this past week and I loved the idea. A year full of good. It can be done many different ways…a jar, a basket, a pocket… a journal…I thought something hanging on the wall is best for our house.

They are shabby and chic and practically free…and that is always a bonus! These would also be a great classroom project for kids…they come together … [Read more...]
