Redditgifts For The Teachers 2014
Every year, the Husband and I buy various school supplies and drop them off in donation bins at local coffee shops and the like. This year, I’m doing things a little differently! I’ve signed up to send a care package of goodies to a teacher in need via redditgifts!

If you’ve ever wanted to make your own, now’s the time to learn and I’ll be more than happy to share my secrets! Continue reading Origami with The Husband: Fortune Teller
