So I have this hanging in my entry way and have thought many times about what a fun, creative, inexpensive gift it would make for Christmas, housewarming or even a baby shower.  It is the spelling of our last name and  the year it was established.  I found it fitting for today's (well yesterdays) post since it is our anniversary (Yeah 12 years).

I have to be honest I did not come up with this idea on my own, as I am a copy cat of many cute ideas.  If you head to this website the author takes you step by step on how to create one of your very own.  I followed all her directions and mine turned out beautifully! http://fullofgreatideas.blogspot.com/2010/10/absolute-favorite-thing-i-have-made.html

 I already had a frame at home and once my photo was complete I printed it at our local Costco for $2.99 for an 11 x 14, put it in my frame, hung it on the wall and LOVE IT! 

Well you have to start somewhere, right?  I have never done a blog before and I am excited to start this one!  The name of my blog and my business is T Bug Treasures.  This name is quite precious to me because it is the nick name for our second born daughter (whom wishes we would stop calling her that).  She is a fun free spirited little girl that also finds joy in creating and gift giving.  I started T Bug Treasures about four years ago with the help and guidance of a dear friend, that might be a guest poster some time. 


The lord has given me a deep desire and love for "creating."  When I was young, I learned how to sew from my grandmother and as I matured I started taking a few classes and eventually just started making little gifts for my kids, family, friends, parties and "just because."   I thoroughly enjoy watching others receive gifts or simply have a wonderful personalized gift to give someone else.  As I mentioned in my bio, I am natural born gift giver and it warms my heart to see people smile and sparkle when they receive one of my gifts. I hope you will continue on this journey with me and stay posted for all those creative ideas to be shared with you, so you can share with others!
