WE LOVE: INTEL 2-IN-1

Over the last few months I have been taking on more and more work. It's been both great and a pain. Ha! With all of the new work, I have been spending more time on the computer and in my planner trying my best to stay organized. When I was contacted by the fine people from Intel 2in1 and was asked if I would be interested in the HP Envy X2, I jumped at the opportunity! This thing is pretty great. It's a tablet and a laptop in one. The keyboard attaches magnetically and it's so easy to use and take on the go. And not that this should matter, but the speakers that come on it are pretty amazing. Perfect for dance party breaks, or watching Lost for the hundredth time while I work away. All in all, we love the Envy X2. Stay tuned for another use for this device that your kids will love!

EMOJI BEACH BALLS

And now for something really, really fun. I saw these solid yellow beach balls and they were begging to be made into emojis! So I grabbed my oil paint pens and we went to work. I picked the faces I use the most on Instagram - and then threw in that Miley Cyrus one because it's just too funny. This would be a great project to make with the kids and they will have a blast with them in the pool or at the beach! I can't wait to jump in a pool with these guys. So fun!

To make them, be sure your beach balls are clean then paint on the faces with your paint pens! Seriously so, so simple. It helps to use slow and steady strokes to color in the spaces. Let them dry and start playing!

"DONUT" YOU LOVE STICKERS?

Did you know that Friday is national donut day? Of course you did. Well to celebrate, I made some fun stickers for you! You can use them to seal up some baggies of donut goodness, or just hand them over to your littles and let them go crazy. Either way, they'll be a hit! To make them, just print out the download onto sticker paper, cut them out and you're good to go. Fun right? Right. Now, if you'll excuse me we're off to get some more donuts!

FATHER'S DAY BALLOONS

Can you believe it's almost Father's Day already? This year, make dad's day feel like a party with some special balloons! These decals are a lot of fun and are pretty easy to make. You can even let the kids help out by placing the stickers onto the balloons! I mean, I wouldn't do that, but maybe you're a better person than I am. To see how to make them, check out the post I did over on Ehow. 

BALLOON TEMPORARY TATTOOS

More tattoos? Yes! You can never have too many temporary tattoos! Now that Summer is right around the corner, we are heading outside to play and Elliott is showing off his guns. These fun balloons are perfect for Summer. Or as I like to call it, little man in tank top season. Head over to Handmade Charlotte to get the download and make your own!
