Glittery Shamrock Magnet

Glittery Shamrock Magnet     Use this festive magnet to display your child's artwork!    You'll need... - 3 or 4 wooden hearts - Green acrylic paint - Craft glue - Green glitter - Magnet (available at craft stores) - Paint brush or cotton swab   To make... 1. Start out by painting one side and the edges of all 3 or 4 hearts. Let the paint dry. 2. Glue the edges of all 3 or 4 hearts together to form a shamrock shape. Allow the glue dry. 3. Use a cotton swab or old paint brush to brush the top of the shamrock with a thin layer of glue. Sprinkle some green glitter onto the wet glue. Let the glue dry and then tap off any extra glitter.   4. Glue a magnet to the back of your shamrock, let the glue dry and display it with pride!   adapted from Sherri Osborn, About.com

It's been a while!

I guess it has been a while :) Nothing interesting here, just a new site at Learn and Grow Together, and enjoying my role as Hospitality Manager for Saratoga County Mommies. We have a ton of events planned for our group. I love being a part of this wonderful mommies community!

I was given the OK to take over the SCM Twitter Account, so if you are on Twitter, come follow us!!! And don't forget to visit our Facebook Page!

I will be posting info for our big quarterly fundraiser soon! And, hopefully, we will have a SCM blog up as well.

I also got accepted as a member of The Mommies Network Peer Review Panel. We are just setting things up now, and I am excited to be a part of such a wonderful National organization :)

Nothing else to post about now...but wanted to pass this along...kind of explains itself! Click on the graphic, and it should take you to You Tube!
