It's Official, Fall Craft Season Is Here!

Well, fall is officially here and my family is very excited.  First of all, the days of 100 degree temps are behind us.  But most of all, we have all the parties and festivals to attend!!  This year, like every year, I put my name way down on the room mom sign up sheet, I would only like to "assist", but I was chosen to be room mom for my daughter's class.  Thank goodness I'm only a helper in my son's class.  I have no idea why I signed up on both sheets!!  Anyway, I'm in charge of keeping the party moving with an activity, craft and snack.  Truth be told, I'm terrible at craft ideas.  I love making crafts, I just don't come up ideas on my own.  :)

So, wasn't I relieved when I received the following e-mail this morning:

Find a Spooky Halloween Bunting (pg. 7), Candy Corn Decor (pg. 11), a Spiderweb Lantern (pg. 19) and much more in this free eBook.

Woot woot!!  After looking through a few, I decided on the Baby Jar Pumpkins for the class party.  They look perfect for my age group, and will only require a little prep from me.  Here's what they look like:

Cute, huh?  For a complete list of ideas, click the link above or banner below.  They are great ideas for school crafts, homeschooling, or family night!

 

Have a fun and happy fall!

It's Friday, Happy Mega Swag Bucks Day!!

Every Friday is Mega Swag Bucks Day (MSBD), which means better odds of winning BIG Swag Bucks denominations, up to 10,000 in one search! It's completely free and Swag Bucks can be traded in for rewards such as gift cards, electronics, apparel, household goods and much more! I personally, usually get Starbucks gift cards, Amazon gift cards or CASH deposited into my PayPal account!

Swag Bucks are digital dollars that you earn just for doing the things you're already doing. I mostly earn all my points from my web searches (it's like a frequent flier program for web surfing!). But you can also earn Bucks by taking surveys, shopping online, recycling old cell phones, etc.

The first time I cashed out my Swag Bucks I requested a Starbucks card, then I registered the Starbucks gift card (at Starbucks.com) and now I get coupons for free goodies from Starbucks...for instance I got a free Vente Iced Coffee yesterday since it's my birthday month. So, the point is, sign up with Swag Bucks today!! :)

Another idea, is to save up your Swag Bucks and cash out for gift cards to use for the holidays, either shop with them or give the cards as gifts...

Have a safe and happy Labor Day weekend!!
