Kelly’s Stamp of Approval 5
This week, it’s all about planning the Thanksgiving meal and a fun DIY that will definitely be the hit of the day, a vintage collection I’m green with envy over, forcing bulbs, turning photos into spectacular watercolors (no art skills required), doodling up a storm and more. Welcome to this weeks Kelly’s Stamp of Approval 5.
I made this cute paper bag turkey years ago and the kids loved it! Carve into it to reveal the popcorn surprise inside!

I’m green with envy over this vintage jadeite collection of The Vettel Farm!

Now is the time to force bulbs (I like Amaryllis and Paper Whites). I love watching them sprout and grow a little bigger every day until one day, you walk into the room, and they reward you with the most stunning display. They make great gifts too. I like to plant bulbs in a cute bowl or mug and gift it before it blooms.
Turn your favorite photo into a watercolor … no art skills required! Have a friend that moved into a new house, had a baby or got a cute new pet? Snap a pic, turn it into a watercolor and pop it into a frame for a gift they’ll always remember.

Sushi’s friend Hazel stopped by for a treat. She’s deaf as a door nail and so mellow which is the total opposite of Sushi’s high energy personality!
I mailed magazines to some of my readers and of had fun doodling all over the envelopes!
I’m planning on making shredded brussels sprouts with a balsamic glaze as a side dish this year because as well all know, it’s all about sides! Wishing you all a wonderful Thanksgiving and I hope you get the big half of the wishbone!
Awe Hazel is cute too!!
Isn’t she adorable! Sushi loves her!
So my mag copy is gonna have doodles AND wine stains?
Yep – it’s now a collectors item!
Love the turkey! I work in daycare and this would be a great craft/project to do. Great ideas as always Kelly!
