1. B-Day Clipboard (found clipboard on clearance for $2.50), everything else was free. Download B-day pages from this Eighteen 25 blog's: http://eighteen25.blogspot.com/2010/06/party-ideas-part-four.html
(Notice they spray painted theirs. I don't have time for that right now, so I thought the decorative clipboard worked out just as well!)
2. decoration: This was an old canvas picture that I didn't need anymore, so I took a piece of scrapbook paper that I liked and modge podged it on there. Then I took ribbon and placed a tag in the middle. Voila! New Artwork. I'm going to use it either as something to hold binder clips on. (Free!)
3. Note card holder: 1 vase + old ribbon
4. Easter Wreath (I promise this is much prettier in person, but my camera is ancient, so it doesn't do it justice.) I was a copy cat and got the idea from this site:

( Again, don't have time to sit and cut flowers off of ribbon, so I found pink bridal picks that I just poked right into the wreath!) That green yarn is in the yarn section and looks like a furry scarf. It's easy to wrap around and does look like grass once you're done. Will hang on outside door after V-Day is over! I got all of the materials at Hobby Lobby.
If you don't like that one, here's another site with lots of ideas:

The Magato's are always looking for ways to be a "modern day June Cleaver" without all the extra work. Short. Simple. Sweet!
