monster party!
We had this "Monster Bash" banner in our sample sale and a mama loved it so much that she wanted us to create a name and high chair banner to match! :)
It was a pretty quick turn around, but we made it work!

We had a customer buy our pirate banner, but she had a few adjustments. She really wanted a pennant banner and wanted specific colors added: Lime gren, teal, yellow, and red!
We made the pirate boys more colorful and did teal pennants! So cute!!!
Pirate chests inbetween the words!
So don't be afriad to ask for customized decorations! We enjoy variety and love a challenge!

How to clean your circut mats
Here is one for our fellow crafters!
How to clean your cricut mats!!!!!
If you have a cricut, you know how important the mat is. The problem is...... these things are SO expensive and they simply don't last long enough! After just a few uses, it seems the stickiness has worn off and paper is sliding everywhere.
Well, in order to keep the costs down for our customers, we've had to become resourceful. One thing we do is scotch tape the paper to mat so that it stays put. But sometimes, even THAT starts to not work..... and here is why:
DUST! The mats are meant to be sticky for a long time, but over time, the fibers from the papers you use to cut and other dust, fur, lint, whatever is flying around the house gets stuck to it too.
Take a close look at your mat......... I bet it looks a lot like this:
Luckily I have a great solution! WASH YOUR MATS!
It's simple! make sure to clear off as much of the paper and particles as you can off of your mat and then add some dish soap to it.
Get your hands nice and wet and start to rub in a circular motion, starting in the middle and work your way out.
Be sure to really put some elbow grease into it! Then simply rinse with water and allow to air dry. (usually overnight)
And you will have a sticky mat again!! It won't be like BRAND new, but it will definitely work much better! You can keep doing this over and over again!!! Eventually it will stop working, but by then you've extended the life of your mat so far that you should be proud!! (and you've saved yourself a bundle!)
With as much as we use our mats, this has been a life saver!!
Enjoy! <3

Fun with Toddlers-Memorial Day Craft!
Happy Memorial Day! Here is a cute craft we did this weekend to celebrate!
Supplies:
Red, white and blue poms (any craft store will have them!)
A piece of paper
Scissors

Here is our Memorial Day star craft! Hope it inspired you to get creative with your little ones!
We would love to see what crafts you are doing with your little ones! Email us photos and we will post them the following sunday for our Toddler Time entry!

And the birthday banner!
Thanks again, Krissy for choosing R&R for your daughter's 1st AND 2nd birthday parties!! :)
