MY EASY CHRISTMAS PROJECTS

Image
  https://crazylittleprojects.com/ I finally finished my Christmas Projects last  week. I  watched  several  Christmas craft  videos online. Most of them got their supplies   were purchased from Dollar stores. I was happy  because these supplies were cheap and easy to find. There were several ladies making lanterns. This was intriguing to me because I collect  lanterns. I never thought I could make my  own lantern.  I was able to come up  with my own design. My local Dollar store  had everything I needed for this project. I decided to make a purple lantern because  I have purple ornaments on my Christmas tree.  Here is my lantern: The top of the lantern has a swag made with  a purple bow, purple flowers, and shiny purple bulbs. I painted plain 12 inch rulers purple.  I added a scene made from a mini white church and mini white  glitter trees in the center. This year the Christmas trend seemed to be  black and white tree trimmings and ornaments. Here are the Black & White Wreaths  t

NO DULL KNIVES FOR ME!

I love to cook and bake. However,  I do this less  often now.  My sons  have moved on and I am  a widow.  I have no one to cook for but myself most of the time.  My friends and I used to take turns treating each other to brunch once a month. We decided to  stop doing this after COVI-19 hit our state.  I am no longer meeting my friends to eat out at restaurants.  We are getting  take out  or home delivery when we don't want to cook.  I am staying home more and  only run errands  twice a week. I have more time to cook and  bake my meals.  I have saved a lot of money  by cooking at home.  So there is at  least one positive result from the Virus. The  second one is that I have remained Virus free by staying at home more.   My family decided to not travel to my Mom's house for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinners this year.   I will be cooking Holiday dinners for my two sons  though.  I plan to cook plenty so they can take leftovers home.   I noticed recently that my steak knife was du

HOLIDAY CRAFT TIME!

  https://www.walmart.com/ I have been collecting lanterns for several years.  My son gave me a beautiful one for Mother's Day 10 years ago. It was silver with a stained glass pattern.  I displayed it on a table on my porch. I loved to  see the sun shine through the stained glass.  This gift peaked my interest in lanterns.  I soon discovered that there were many  lantern designs.  I bought most of my  lanterns  during after Christmas sales.  I even found a  lantern  with solar lights. It has   been  glowing at night for the past  three years I was delighted to discover that  there are people  on YouTube  making their own lanterns.  Some of them used  picture  frames and painters  sticks.  I found a lot of  picture frames during my trip  to a dollar store.   There were  no painter's  sticks  available.  I decided to use  wood rulers instead. I spent a whole day watching DIY lantern videos. I eventually figured  out how I wanted to design my  own lanterns.  I painted my wood rule

SENIOR LADY LOVES GAMES!

Image
  https://playingcarddecks.com/ I used to do word search puzzles at  my part-time job in college. I got  bored with that so,  I started doing crossword puzzles. I never did  progress to doing New York Times crossword puzzles. I started playing games on AARP's  "Staying Sharp" after I joined several years ago.   Retirement and "Staying at Home" during the Pandemic have afforded  me with plenty of time for playing games.  I read an article that said,  Seniors should play  games daily to ward off Dementia and Alzheimers. Therefore, I try to play some type of game or  do a puzzle daily.  I have downloaded several game apps on  my tablet and cell phone.  I do limit the hours I play games to avoid becoming addicted or anti-social. I recently decided to do a group for Seniors on Facebook.  It is called:  SENIOR PEEPS LOVE GAMES! https://www.facebook.com/groups/657322128263537 Peeps are like-minded friends who enjoy doing the same activities. I am inviting my blog and F

SENIOR LADY LOVES THE MOVIES!

Image
  https://heritageherald.com/ I grew up in a small town and we had a one-man taxi service. Shopping malls were non-existent. My family didn't even own a car.   I fought boredom by listening to  the radio and watching movies.  My dad agreed to put a small black and white TV in the "girls room" provided we  promised to cut it off at bedtime.  Of course, we would sneak and watch TV when we were supposed to  be sleeping!! My favorite  actresses were Susan Hayward, Lee Remick, Kim Novak,  Lana Turner, and  Lee Grant.  Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, and Elizabeth Taylor were good actresses too. I'm showing my age because I watched these ladies in black and  white movies.  I didn't have time for a lot of movie watching when I was a wife and mother with two sons.  I would go to the movie theatres sometime. However, it was only to take my sons to kiddie movies. I started watching movies again after the "Stay At Home " mandate was  issued  due to the COVID-19 virus.
