Fancy Dry Erase Board

We found this dry erase board tutorial and thought we'd share it with you. I'm definitely going to try this out in my own home and I'll update with pics. Just take fabric or scrapbook paper and put in a cool frame- pretty simple huh? This way it can match the decor of your office, kitchen, or wherever you want to use it. We even thought you could put it in your nursery to keep track of feedings or naps. Emery loves it.

Man Gifts

Emery is hard at work again helping you out with gift ideas. Father's Day is always tough and I learned the hard way on my very first wedding anniversary this year that finding a sentimental gift for a guy is NOT easy people. We liked this wine bag with chalk board tag. You can use it for Father's Day or groomsmen gifts, give them a steak with it from HyVee of course (love you Dad!)

Or we found these photo blocks very intriguing. A designer on Etsy sells them but they were posted on the homepage and she had to close shop it was so popular. I'm thinking find a cool block of wood yourself, roughen up the edges of the photo and decoupage it yourself.

Anyone have a rocker husband or a wanna be rocker husband? We think these personalized guitar picks are cool. Lots of people do these on Etsy in ball markers too..so if you have a golfer instead of a rocker you could go that route.

Don't forget about emery's lyric canvas idea..you can go as small or as large as you want and we'll make it for you! Visit our old post here to refresh your memory. Or our personalized six pack of beer idea. Remember you only have a couple of weeks before its Father's Day!
