Videos to show you how to make a wreath from newspaper

Here are two videos from YouTube that show you how to make a really beautiful Christmas wreath out of plain ordinary newspaper.  This is something even your children will enjoy making.  The cost is nothing more than some newspapers--and those can be found at recycling stations if you don't have your own paper, or ask your friends to save them for your.

So here they are.  Enjoy making these.  Send me a picture if you make yourself one.  I think I may have to try this myself this year!

Christmas buying for the readers in your family

Reading listImage by jakebouma via Flickr
Both of my daughters are voracious readers and you will never find them without a book hidden somewhere on their persons.  Because they read, I have been toying with buying them a really special gift this year that they will enjoy for years to come.  Of course, I am talking about a Kindle Reader.  My problem is deciding which size to get them.






Since they both carry purses, I may opt for the smaller, 6" reader that can fit in a bag and go anywhere.  The other plus to this gift is that there are so many books and magazines and newspapers available for the reader at a very minor cost.  I could give them the reading materials for birthday gifts.  Hey, what an idea!

I can see my girls sitting on a beach in Cancun reading a book with the reader--that would probably be my youngest daughter.



My oldest would probably be found reading in bed for the most part, but still she would be reading at quite a fast pace.  I think the reader, being small and light-weight would make reading in bed easier and more user friendly.

What do you think?  Do you think I am on the right path with this gift?
