Frame Those Quotes!


"It's June, Grandma! You still have the St. Patrick pictures up in the bathroom!"
said my 5 year old granddaughter.

















 Like the rest of us, she's excited that her older cousins are coming for a 2 week visit soon. She also knows that I love pictures and frames and putting things up here and there and everywhere.
I realized I had no recent photos of my California girls....nor did I need anymore baseball pictures of the Littles around the house. So.....I made 4X6 prints of some of my favorite Facebook, Pinterest and greeting card quotes and sayings! 










Cleaning and getting the guest room ready for a teen and preteen.
Found a second lamp for the other side of the bed and a small tapas  plate for their jewelry. Paige insisted the girls will still want a snugly-lovey to sleep with!




Voila! All dressed up and ready to welcome my Sunshine and Flower!











I used to save greeting cards, comics and cute sayings for my scrapbooking. Now I've found another way to inspire and share a smile!

    Your decorations are so cute, and I must say, I love the name, "Gramcracker!"

    What a smart way to share (and relish) the great sayings found on Facebook and Pinterest. So smart! (Must say, I chuckled about St. Patrick's Day pics in the potty. It's been years since I've decorated the bathroom with seasonal stuff. Maybe I should start it up again!)

    Thank you for sharing in the GRAND Social!

      Yes,after savoring and sharing quotes & sayings on FB and P...I figured they'd be good for the kiddos and guests to see/read/think about too!
