I have been seeing so many cute ideas using the
KEEP CALM theme…..
I decided to make a simple little project to add to the Sweetwater Halloween Decor!
I started by browsing for some clever ideas……and I found lots of freebies to print!
Thanks to these clever folks for sharing their talents!

I picked three of my favorites…..to use for a fun and simple project!
A few months ago, I bought a six foot section of plain 4 inch trim stock from Home Depot.
I cut it into 6 inch sections….
sanded the rough edges….
and painted them white….
and they made a really fun Mother’s Day gift for Mom last year!!!
I still had six of them left….perfect for my little Halloween Plaques once they had a coat of black paint!!!!
Here is the finished project!!!
These three are staying at Sweetwater….
I made another set which made the perfect little birthday gift for a friend!
Promise not to tell her that I didn’t spend any money on her gift!!!
But…..knowing this friend…..she would really appreciate THAT!!!
Have a great day!
