| RE: Tips for Starting an In-Home Daycare |
|
A friend of mine provided daycare in her home for years, she received reimbursement from the state she lived in for the food she provided for the children she cared for. She had to have all the receipts then once a month she wold submit her receipts then receive a check from the state. I believe she contact the local county Dept. of Human Services to find out how to participate in this. I believe she had to be state certified but I am not sure of what all she had to do to qualify. Just some info thought you might find helpful. Good Luck! ... View related article. |

You can buy both egg and heart shaped glass ornaments for your local craft store like Michaels or Hobby Lobby. Use Delta brand air-dry PermEnamel Shimmers Paint, paint the eggs and I use the tinsel type filler and fill the eggs with the same color that I have painted the eggs. You can also use rub on transfers they work well also. ... View related article. |

| RE: Glass Block Christmas Decoration |

Another idea for lights that we thought we would try for my daughters wedding is using the battery operated candles that if you have a hole that is about the size of a quarter they fit right inside. That way you don't have to run extension cords down the midle of the tables to plug each block in. We thought we would use the frost paint & stencil & use the last name initial in the middle and then their first initials on each side OR do their names and wedding date. & maybe tie some wedding bells to the ribbon. ...

I bought a glass block at Hobby Lobby that already had the hole with a stopper like a bank has. You can buy the regular glass blocks at Home Depot & Lowes. I checked around and the best way to cut the hole in them is using a Diamond Core Drill bits size 2 1/8". I have not tried it yet but plan to. My daughter is getting married & we decided to use the glass blocks for table decorations. The ones that I decorated this christmas I used rub-on transfers and painted the back of the block with white frost paint. I also used a sealant to keep the rub-on transfers from peeling off. I usd sticky adhesive spray to attach the ribbon and lastly added the Brrr tin ornament as an accent. I used a 35 count LED Rice light string. I thought that it turned out pretty good. I found the pre-made bows at Michaels, Hobby Lobby and Garden Ridge after Christmas and stocked up for the next year so that I would have plenty. ... View related article. |
