FANTASY FOOTBALL

I hope there are guys (ladies too) that might find this useful...haha

The guys at work ask me to do this each year so I thought--why not just post it so other people could use it too...

If you have a Fantasy Football Draft -- this printable is for YOU! The file has 20 pick numbers--the image below only shows 12 so don't get fooled--just click on the link and download the FREE full version.
Then, Print - Cut - GOOD LUCK!

Feel free to suggest other "Fantasy Football" printables you would like. I make football pools each week for the people at work...I don't know if people are into that...I'm debating if I should post the ones I make each week...

It's August Already?

Wow, time flies.

August = back to school
(well, not for me, but for a lot of other people haha)

and Back to School = NEW SCHOOL SUPPLIES!
(again, not for me, but I love perusing down the school supply aisles at target and eyeing all the sales...)

Bridal Shower GAMES!!

Hosting a Bridal shower?
Need some game ideas?

Here are 5 game ideas--complete with free downloadable printables:

Oh...and not to be a copyright police or anything....
but please use my printables for personal use only okay? okay.

annnnd if someone sees a printable you downloaded off this blog and is like "hey! where'd you get that?!" please help me support my blog and say "on this chick's blog that likes giving away free printables!!" okay? okay. you guys are sooo cool, thanks!

SOMEDAY, I would like to become the "asian martha stewart" and do this for a living--and monopolize every line of craft/art/supplies with my own designs...HA....SOMEDAY. i hope. okay pray for me haha.
BUT until then, I'll stick to my wee blog~

OKAY, I babbled long enough....ON WITH THE GAMES!
These game ideas are not my own--I've played them at other bridal showers--the only thing I own/designed are the graphics. (Three different colors to choose from for each file!)
You can download each file by clicking on the links located under each picture~

1. Icebreaker: Purse Scavenger Hunt

Get into teams and try to fill out the entire card with a group member's name. Set a time limit--and whichever group gets the most items (or first group to finish) wins!

Icebreaker - Green

Icebreaker - Gray

Icebreaker - Yellow

2. Advice for the Bride

Guest fill out an advice they have for the Bride. The bride will then read each one out loud and will try to guess who it's from. 

Advice - Green

Advice - Gray

Advice - Yellow

3. Bridal Bingo

Have all the guests fill out what they think the bride will receive...while the bride is opening up all her lovely gifts, the guests can enjoy the time even more by bingo-ing it up!

Bingo - green

Bingo - gray

Bingo - yellow

Other games we played that don't need printables:

4. Collect your BLING

Plastic diamond rings were passed out to everyone. During the entire shower, you were not allowed to say the words "wedding, bride, groom or honeymoon" if you do, you must give your ring to whoever caught you. The person with the most "bling" at the end of the event wins!

5. How well do you know your GROOM

Questions about the groom (get the answers from the groom first) are asked to the bride. Every time the bride gets an answer wrong she must chew bubblegum! You can pass out the questions to your guests so they can ask and be a part of the fun!

DAAANG, we played a lot of games....haha

And a post about a bridal shower would not be complete if I didn't talk about the actual event RIGHT?

right. I was only able to snap a few decent pictures the day of--gotta love the iphone ;)

A CLOSER LOOK AT THE PLACE SETTING:

• CUPS: mason jars with paper straws (flags)--yes each one hand cut and glued to each straw. Ribbons on the rims. For a lot of the girls--this was their first time seeing a mason jar used as cups--they thought it was so clever! (thank you pinterest)
• PRINTABLES: all the games/activities printed and bundled together with ribbon
• FAVORS: flower pens in mini pots so that they can use it for all the activities/games
• NAMECARDS: printed bible verses + names and cut them with my small circle cutter--cut backings--then taped stir sticks.
• COASTERS: yes, I know, I always use my scalloped puncher for this--but what can I say--it's so easy peasy.

and because i heart mason jars--i'm posting this picture again. ha!

There were a lot of other details (banners, foods, gifts) that I didn't mention--but this blog post was more for the printables than anything--so hope it helps if you're planning a shower soon!

It was definitely LOTS of fun to plan/execute--the other ladies in the bridal party were a blessing to serve with (love you girls!). And of course, the bride--she's the best, and I would do anything for that girl. <3

TEACHERS! Classroom Jobs Poster Printables!

Calling all teachers.
All classrooms need a classroom jobs poster! Here's one I created for my teacher friend---and now you can make your own!

Materials:

• Black Poster board
• Downloadable FREE printable "CLASSROOM JOBS" PDF file (click on the link at he end of this post)
• Glue Pen
• White cards with your student's names
• Letter stickers for the Poster Title (or you can just write it in with white/red sharpie)

Directions:

• Download the free printable, cut out all the job cards and lay them out on your poster board evenly spaced out. (when you print, make sure you click "do not scale" or else it will shrink all the print outs to fit the paper margins--and you definitely don't want that)
• Place glue on the left, right and bottom edges on the back of each card -- glue onto poster board.
• Wait for glue to dry and then insert the cards with all your students into each pocket. Make them smaller than the actual pocket for fast access so you can easily change them each week (or day).
• Place stickers at the top for the title--or write it in with white or red acrylic sharpie.
• Hang on your classroom wall!! (send me a picture after you're done)

Here's the file--happy printing+making!
*Please help promote "the things hannah loves" by joining this blog (on the right)--so that I can keep coming out with new printables for you for free! All you need is an email address! Thank you!!**

It should look something like this when finished:

**update 11/10/12 -- two new jobs added! Backpack Monitor + Office Manager**

Happy February!

Hrm, I'm a few days late posting this. my bad :(

Three to choose from!
The picture is a bit ghetto--sorry--my cubicle walls are not too exciting. :/ haha

Download: February #03 (hearts!)

Did I mention, I love February because of VALENTINES DAY?
Everything is so pretty in pink ;)

Bible Reading Chart

The most common new year's resolution I've heard from my peers over the years: to read the bible everyday.

Hope this helps :)
It's not a schedule--it just simply lists each chapter of the bible so you can bubble them in as you go along. Sort of like a scantron ;) This way, you always know where you left off even if your bookmark falls out.

It was a bit tricky to get it all on one side--but I finally got it to fit--yay!
Now, fold it in fourths, stick it in your life manual, and it's reading time!

{download file here!}

 Race you to the end! ;)

happy halloween!

introducing...my crew :)

meet violet, leo, olive, noah and jade. my MINIONS! :)
they are created from scratch, my very own blood sweat and tears. I'll be using them often in a variety of printables...stay tuned!

I've decided to dress them up for HALLOWEEN!
poor leo--someone had to be the ghost...

FREE PRINTABLES! (downloadable links below)--use it for treat bags, cards, attach it to candy, write lunch notes--be creative! Both files have eight cards on each page. Please download for personal use only (i.e. don't make moolah off of other people's work)

File1: HERE! They're both PNG files. (better quality than a JPG)

File 2: HERE! This has space at the top so that you can personalize it with names or a note!

"present"

So when I first came up with the name for my blog I used "present" to mean three things.
1. present - at this very moment/time. Presently, I am writing this blog.
2. present - to show or to give. I want to present this to you.
3. present - a gift. This is a present for you!

hence. At this present moment, I present to you a present.
I wanted to create a blog where I can do what I love (craft/design/be artsy) but at the same time have free downloadable graphics, photos, tutorials--so everyone can run with it and have some fun. The things I love I present to you...get it?

Anways, I know I'm new to this whole blogging world and there are SO MANY resources out there, but I hope I can help out in a small way one way or other :)

soooo, that's why I named this site the way I did.

NOW.

I'm sure by now, since its birth in 1939, the "keep calm and carry on" posters have been around the block. BUT it's still very much alive today. It's timeless. It's design done RIGHT.

anyhoo, I just messed around with it and sort of just ran through some ideas. Most of them just events/things that have been on my mind lately.
like...starting a blog, trusting HIM, thinking about how I want 4 kids, but knowing that I'll probably change my mind once I get one...can't believe steve jobs passed away...and my newest addiction: PINTEREST.
if you haven't heard about it yet--hear it now--you definitely want to familiarize yourself with this site. And once you get plugged in and become an addict like me--come find me here.

Want one PERSONALIZED??

Just leave a comment with the slogan you want :)
