The best give I ever gave was a handmade ceramic vase to my mom. My mom has always been incredibly artistic. She is so creative and imaginative, and she is always creating wonderful things. Unfortunately, the creative gene did not get passed to me. While I would make little craft projects growing up, I lacked the artistic talent that my mom hand. I could not draw or paint, despite my appreciation for the arts. I even voluntarily took art classes instead of study hall in high school to try and develop the skill – to no avail. It was the only class in high school that I ever received an “A for effort” in.

When I went to college it was mandatory that I take an art class. The prospect of that terrified me. I was never good at art and now I would have to do it at the college level. So I put it off until the last semester of my Associate’s degree. It was either take the art class or don’t graduate. So after considering my options, I decided to take a pottery class. I though maybe with the concepts of form and function, this might be a type of art I could take to. And it turned out to be right!

For once I was enjoying art and could share in the enjoyment that my mom had from creating beautiful things. When it came time for midterms we had to make a coil pot. Everyone knows that basic coil pot – we made them in elementary school. You take the clay and roll it into a skinny long roll strip and then wrap it in circles until it forms a little pot. Well our pots had to be at least 12 inches tall. After putting it off as long as I could, I started to work on my pot. And after a while my pot became a vase. After working on it for a while longer, I scalloped the top and added roses I created to the rim. I managed to glaze it and fire it with no problems.

For the first time, I was truly proud of an artistic creation and I knew exactly what to do with it! I was going to give it to my mom – the person who inspired me and whom I knew would appreciate. I can remember the look of shock and appreciation on her face when I brought it home and gave it to her. She knew how hard it was for me to take to art and how much time I had spent to make that vase beautiful. This was also the first piece of custom, hand-made pottery she had every received. She still shows it off on display in her living room.

iCaughtSanta.com Review and Giveaway



I am pleased to announce that iCaughtSanta.com is sponsoring The DC Frugalista's very first giveaway!!!

Know some people who have lost their belief in Santa? Well iCaughtSanta.com allows you to create proof that Santa visited your house on Christmas Eve!!!

The iCaughtSanta.com program allows you to a picture from your house, ideally your living room with your Christmas tree or you fireplace, and insert a Santa image into the photo. The whole process is super simple. First you pick the photo you want to insert Santa into and upload it to the iCaughtSanta.com website. Next, you pick the Santa you want to insert. They have 20 different Santa poses you can choose from! Everything, from Santa being caught in the act to sleeping in a chair to having a kiss on his cheek. Then you move the Santa to the spot you want and size him to fit the scene. Next, you can pick out a border if you wish. If you're planning on creating prints of you iCaughtSanta.com photo, they suggest that 5x7 prints are the best. Once you finalize your picture, you check out and will be able to download it to your computer. It's that simple!

Here is my iCaughtSanta.com creation.


The best part is how realistic the Santa looks in the scene. You can't even tell that it's an inserted image!

Normally, to create a photo on iCaughtSanta.com it costs $9.95, not a bad price for the look on your child's face when you show them the proof! 

Additionally, if you use promo code The-DC-Frugalista you'll get 25% off!!!

BUT wait there's more! iCaughtSanta.com has generously provided 5 iCaughtSanta.com credits for giveaways to The DC Frugalista readers!!!
