These are SO cute. I love my crocs and now I can put photos of my kids and puppy on them. How fun is that? Walmart Photo Centre has 2 size options. The smaller one is $7.97 and bigger is $9.97. I was thinking about fun little end of the season gifts for my daughter’s softball team. I’ve already taken photos of all the girls up at bat. I may have to take a poll and find out how many of the kids have/wear crocs or croc-like shoes! Super easy to make and with fun results…

It’s a show and tell day with some cool photo gifts I made with photos of the kids for their Dad for Father’s Day and his birthday. I made a dopp kit at the Costco Photo Center using of a fantastic photo I took of the kids. Then I made a photo tie at Sam’s Club Photo Center with a fun, crazy dress up photo I took of the kids when they were goofing off. Check out the video (note my kids being silly in the background)…
Oh, and the foam photo puzzle I referred to is from Walmart Photo Centre…came out so cool!

So I gathered some of the fun products I made with my nature photos at the Walmart Photo Centre to show off. I made a small coffee table book, an inspirational at a glance calendar and a super fun foam puzzle. I included the links so you can check out how easy they were for me to make.

How cool is this? I’m thinking baby gifts with photos of the baby, wedding gifts with photos of the bride and groom, kids b’day gifts with their picture on the paper…awesome! Here’s what I did to personalize gift wrap from Walmart Photo Centre…

This is such a cool gift idea from Walmart Photo Centre…a personalized key hanger with your photo as a background. I could have chosen a photo of my kids, puppy, whatever. Because we are remodeling our entry, I thought it would be cool to use one of my nature shots as a background. Check it out!
How I created a coffee table book of my nature photos.

It’s no secret that I LOVE being outdoors, hiking and photography. I always have my canon camera handy and nature shots that are inspiring, calming or empowering are my favorites. I love trees, rocks and water and take tons of photos. Luckily, I have an Eye-Fi wireless SD card so my life is SO much easier when it comes to uploading photos to flickr and facebook. See more about my Eye-Fi card here.
I decided awhile ago that I wanted to make a coffee table book of my favorite nature shots of 2009 so here is a video of my experience making the book at the Walmart Photo Centre…
The coolest holiday gift tags I’ve ever seen!

I’m not usually into gift tags or gift cards for that matter. A sharpie directly on the wrapping paper is my primitive habit. None of the tags I’ve seen have caught my attention enough to do any differently until I came across these on the Walmart Photo Centre site.
Now, my kids will be able to identify their gifts right away because their photos will be on them…SO COOL!
Here are some of the other tag designs…
Great Coach gift choices at Walmart Photo Centre site.

I have to confess that when it comes to thinking of teacher or coach gifts, I usually struggle to find something practical, affordable and meaningful. I’m loving the options out there lately for using photos to make amazing gifts that teacher and coaches will for sure LOVE. This time, I explored the Walmart Photo Centre site for ideas and found EXACTLY what I was looking for…a stainless steel travel mug personalized with the team photo for the Blue Lightening. I’m so excited for my daughter to be able to give it to her soccer coach at the end of the season party. I have to say it’s tempting to get on for my daughter and her best friend too for the tea they both have been drinking lately in celebration of a great season. Maybe I’ll think about it for a Christmas gift…

This is so fun! I am at Pop!tech in Camden, Maine at this incredible, inspiring conference and one of the activities they’ve set up here is button-making…
Embarrassingly, I’ve made a lot of photo buttons while here. There are magazines to cut pics and words out of or people are bringing their own photos and making pin-backed buttons out of them. How cool is that? I sooooo want a button-maker now, but like I need another craft activity, right? If YOU want a button maker…here’s a place you can purchase one online http://www.americanbuttonmachines.com/.
If you’re not ready to invest in your own buttonmaker, you can have personalized photo buttons made at Walmart Photo Centre online for $1.47 each! I HEART BUTTONS!
Here I am at Pop!tech and I made a video for you of the magical process of button making…enjoy! I hope you don’t become as addicted as I am, but if you think you might…let me know so we can start a support group. 
Puzzled?

We love puzzles in my family, especially ones of Maine scenes. So when my mom and I had to get rid of a bunch of puzzles at our cottage, I decided to replace them with new ones made with our photos…
There are a bunch of different puzzle options at the Walmart PhotoCentre site. I especially like the foam ones. What a great idea for kids! Another great b’day/holiday gift idea!
