Books for christmas, my art, Art by Contributors

Books For Christmas

If you need last minute children's gifts for children while its good to give a few toys. Do not forget books. If you know a book a child will love its a nice extra gift. Kids absolutely love bad kitty, kattie woo. There will be some books a child won't love I thought that my kids would love Farmer Boy as I did as a child but they weren't much into me reading it to them. While its too late to buy books online there are many ways to buy books. Big box grocery stores often a sell children's books. There is also salvation army where profits go to charity. A book gift card and a trip to a bookstore with lunch also might be a fun gift. They might enjoy picking their own books. the real gift is your time. A book can be accompanied with a toy. If your kid loves Scooby doo then a Scooby doo toy with Scooby related books might work.

Christmas For Tiny Homes

My family and just got our first home. We lived in good sized apartments and supper tiny ones. Do you have a tiny home, an itty bitty apartment, a small dwelling, an RV, camper, just a room but still want to celebrate Christmas? Christmas doesn't have to be a huge tree and thirteen foot high pile of presents. You can Have a mini fake tree or not have a tree at all. Christmas decorations, and can be an appropriate size for your living space. Even a mid sized to large home can feel even bigger.

1. Make a list of what decorations you already have, what you need to get rid of and what you need to acquire through purchase, making, or barter.

2. Look for tiny gifts with big impact. Make sure gifts for children are still age appropriate.

3. Think tiny practical gifts like mugs, as with no form or space such as mp3 and kindle books.

4. Have a holiday shelf instead of decorating the whole house. I'd rather spend my Christmas money on gifts anyway.

5. If you are getting a Christmas tree instead of a big one consider one that can fit on the tabletop.

Wacky and Fun Gifts for the Home Chef

Do you have a home chef that has almost everything?

These gifts are strange, odd, wild, and silly gifts for the home chef. Want to give them something extra with their main gifts, some stocking stuffers, or other christmas filler. Want to get a little something for your self. A few of these gifts are less wacky than cute

Fred

Fred has some of the kitschy kitchen stuff out there. I will admit I want these for my birthday, or mother's day, christmas and I am no home chef.

Creative Designs,Writing for Profit, Article Suggestions, Topic Ideas,

Hello Everyone!

I've recently discovered a site that is very fun to write for if you like getting paid for article writing. It is possible that I'm one of the last people to hear about this site but maybe not. Feel free to take a look at Bubblews.com and see what you think. If nothing else, you might find some interesting articles to read.

The site is different from most sites I've written for in the past in a few key ways. Mostly, it is about connecting and making friends on the site so that your articles get viewed by others. Bubblews pays you for views, comments, and likes or dislikes for each article that you submit. Their rules are pretty simple and straight forward. They have zero tolerance for plagiarism so no copying and pasting even of your own articles you may have written elsewhere.

You can feature one or more photos in each article that is either your own or is a creative commons photo. The fun part is that your articles only have to be at least 400 characters (not words!) long. I haven't been able to submit an article yet that is that short but many people do just to get their article count up. I prefer to invest in the future and offer something in each article that might be of value in the future and not just for those friends that might click on the article initially.

I thought it would be fun to open up the comments section to ideas for topics that I (or anyone!)can write articles about. If you have any suggestions, please list them in the comments section below as my goal is to list several posts a day and I need some inspiration big time.  If you do sign up on Bubblews, be sure and hop over to my Art Blog and let me know as I would love to Connect with you there.  :)
