Good afternoon. This morning I was at the Kuna Library Buggy Breakfast at the corner of Maple and Syrup in Kuna Idaho. You can check out the website and find out about our great library and even see some pictures. http://www.kunalibrary.org/ They have so many programs there, I can't even keep up with them. This breakfast is the celebration of end of summer reading.


Ending summer reading means....school is starting soon. How thrilling this will be to see the kids go back and we can resume early rising, homework helps, school pictures, study groups, parties and oh, the list could go on and on. Now why did we want school to start again?


Speaking of school starting. I have enjoyed looking at a picture mat I created which is displaying all my oldest boys pictures from kindergarten to Senior. He just graduated, yeah! All the grades are labeled under the wallet size picture, then the senior picture is an 8x10 photo slot. At the bottom of the frame is the child's name and the year they graduate or graduated. I can also personalize this mat with graphics. I can thank a dear friend, Jacque, for this idea. She had saved all her kids' school pictures and wanted a mat to display them with, so she called me up and sent me her idea and here we go. It is so fun to see the change in the kids. This whole mat is 16x20. This mat of my son actually has his own artwork on it. He drew the pictures then I scanned them in and lasered them on the frame.
I have another graduating senior this year so I need to get busy and make me another frame. Oh, and you will notice that my pictures are not all school pictures. I am a cheap skate and only bought for a few years so I found just regular snapshots and used them. In my opinion it looks just as nice. If you would like to order a mat please visit my store: https://carenslaser.cartfly.com/carenslaser. You will have to contact me via email to let me know what name and year you would like and if you want any graphics.
Thank you for visiting and I hope you have a great day!
