Easy to Make Coach Gift!

A co-worker of mine approached me on ideas for personalized Coaches gifts.  He is a member of the little league and wanted to get all of the coaches a special thank-you gift for all of their hard work.  His idea was some sort of clipboard.  I suggested adding a clear label to a metal clilpboard (printed on a production quality printer so there is no bleeding if it gets wet). This is what I ended up making up for him: 

I ended up adding a sticker to the front and back of the clipboard (this one is metal and also opens up to hold papers).

I was told that they were a big hit with all of 27 of the coaches!  Super simple to do.

I just realized I never showed you the gift I made for my Mom on Mother's Day!  So here you go:

My mom LOVES it... the only problem - she can't decide if she wants to hang it at home or at work.

(People in the pictures: My brother Sean (30), his wife and three children; Myself (27), my husband and three children; My sister Courtney (20), my brother Patrick (18), my youngest sister Christine (12), my youngest brother Tyler (12)! Yes - there is a huge difference in age, but none of it was planned!  My parents had my brother and I and then nine years later were surprised with a little boy... and then they went on to adopt three more children.  Just sort of happened and we love every minute (well, almost) of being a large family!  And did I mention that my parents and the four younger kids all live 6 houses down from us (in the house I grew up in)?!?)

Here's a few of us sqeezing onto a couch to watch mom open gifts:

Happy (Pro)Creating!
