Around-the-door Family tree

Thinking again on how to use your space to make that family tree fit, and because I really feel we should always remember the ones whom we came from, I have given a look at my front door:

Every time we go out of our house we give a look at this wall, even if we don't realize it... Wouldn't it be cool if when we shut that door behind us the last memory is in fact one of the members of our family tree. What better way to help us remember to make our family proud that day?
Since the space is very little, I am "splitting" our family tree by  creating these 8x20 canvas prints:

Here is how that door wall could look:
Even better if I added canvases with pictures of our kids on top:

Or even on the sides:
How about adding our Family name on top:
Isn't it cute?

Really, there is no excuse not to have your family tree displayed in some creative way in your home.
We are who we came from, let's always remember it!

Calendar idea: Baby's first year

Calendars are very useful as they are, but they are even better when they have extra purpose. One cute idea is to use them to display your baby's 1st year. This way you can then frame the pictures after the year is gone, and/or preserve them in a scrapbook album.

 This could be used also to write down all of the baby's milestones, or for any other purpose you might think.
I have noticed that somebody has already had this idea , in fact they already submitted a template to the Template Gallery:

The colors really don't match my baby's personality, so I am making a total new one, which is also an 11x16 calendar.

As you can see the one I am creating for my baby is has the 3 generation page as cover, just so that even that can be framed!

Most of the pages I am creating completely from scratch, or like the cover, I am importing one of my previous projects and modifying it to fit the calendar pages.
For the month of March I have imported a project that seemed just perfect for the month and my baby, and this was the final result:

 I am loving going through my baby's first year pictures, he has grown so much!

Genealogy subway Art

Subway art seems to be something more and more people are looking for nowadays,  so I thought I, "How about a Genealogy one?". I looked everywhere online, and I couldn't find one so I thought of a few words that describe Genealogy, and put them together in my very own Genealogy subway art:
I started playing with it and changed text colors and background. Here is a few more:
I think that green and brown work great here because they recall the colors of a tree.
It would look really good framed too:
Here is a couple more version of my genealogy subway art:



This can be printed on 8x8 or 12x12 pages and framed as you pleased or modged podged on tile or wood.
It would be the perfect gift for the genealogist and family historian in your life.
How about printing it on a 8x8 canvas? Even better a 12x12 or a 20x20 Canvas : it will be just perfect in your home!
As you can tell, the possibilities are endless!

Count down blocks!

Look what I found in the template gallery!
 
A great idea for this Holiday Season!
Super cute squares to modge podge on 2 wooden cubes to create your own countdown blocks personalized with your pictures!
Why didn't I think of it first?!;)
You will find the instructions on how to create it on the template itself when you choose it to create it with your publishing account.
 Just drag and drop your own pictures, and you will be done!

As you can see this template will make 2 sets of countdown blocks, but you can choose to make just one, or also to change embellishments, backgrounds, anything, since our templates are completely modifiable!
This can be also used as a timeless calendar to show off in your family room!
How about this for a special Christmas gift idea?^_^
You will find this and many other ideas in our template gallery, every day it's a surprise!
