Greetings!
Hope everyone is enjoying the fall season and all that comes with it. This week's newsletter spotlights articles from all over About, how to create, building memories and just a little bit of a time waster (but so much fun). Enjoy!

Baby Quilts
I can't think of a more perfect gift for a newborn than a quilt that was lovingly made for them. The parents appreciate it when they get it, a few years later the child will appreciate having a blanket that is only for them and then many years later is the thrill of passing it down to their children. I might be am getting ahead of myself here, but this summer I gave my son and his expectant wife a few treasures that were saved from when he was a baby. It brought tears to my eyes at how much they loved them.

Creative Diversions
Sometimes we all need a little diversion, a little fun and it doesn't always have to be a game on Facebook! Marion shares tips on animations, but the link to the Stickman is more fun than you can imagine.

Building Utility Shelves
I don't have too much to say about this except -- please someone come do this to our garage! This month? Actually the step-by-step instructions are pretty clear and I might be able to make this happen myself with just a few simple tools. But knowing my skills, maybe not.

That One Special Photograph
There are times when you have a special photograph, one that needs more than just a frame, but perhaps needs to tell a story. It might be a bit of embellishing, a quote or more white space. Use these ideas to make that perfect photo an even more perfect display.
