Spring Crafting: Washi Picture Easels

Moore crafts.  Not only are they clipboards, but they have a spot in the back to insert the dowel  (came with it) to allow it to stand up on a desk or table!  Also there is a spot to hang it on the back too!  THEY WERE ONLY A $1.00! Marrying it up with some Spring Washi Tape was the PERFECT little gift.  NOTE: You will need to unscrew the hardware in order to put the last pieces of Washi Tape on the clipboard for a finished look.

There you have it. Easy and a fun DIY!  Hurry ...

All good relationships take a lot of time and energy to build a lasting bond. This can be especially difficult between parents and teens. At times it might feel that your relationship with your adolescent is teetering on a cliff and might collapse at any minute. A teen is developing their own identity- one that is apart from his family. It is normal for there to be ups and downs, but the key to bonding and strengthening your connection might be the secret power of love.

They provide more than the basic needs- they mold a c...
