Maybe you already remember to give thanks everyday. For that you are blessed and I am happy for you. But for me it can still be a challenge.  Yes due to circumstances beyond my control, my life has been turned upside down. Still I have so much to be grateful for. Another day to spend with my loved ones. My health. My family.... Yet it remains to be a struggle to consciously say thank you. I say consciously because I think actually saying thank you makes a difference.  There was a time in my life that I was happy and believed everything would turn out.

And now this week I have a cereal box craft project for you. This isn't a new craft but it is decorated differently. To see what I mean click HERE . Oh and the instructions on how to make these picture frames is also on that post. Okay so I started with a discarded cereal box, glue, white felt, white material, white ribbon and white beads.
