Today I will be sharing with you how I engraved my name into a piece of wood that came from one of my shelves that broke. This is my first time using a engraving tool. So lets see what happens.
You will need:
engraving tool
piece of wood
stencil (of your choosing)
rag
Cricut machine
Cricut mat
glitter of any colors
laptop
I click on my first project with my name on it.I click the “Customize” buttonSelect a photo from your upload tab on the (left) side of the screen. Used the text on the (left) side of the screen and type a name of your choosing under the picture. After you finished typing the text of your choosing click the make it button on the (right) side of the screen.After you click on the (make it) button make sure that everything is looks good and click the continue button on the bottom right side corner.
After I cut out my stencil that I wanted to used I will tape it to my wood and start tracing it with hand engraving tool.

Born and raise in Georgia to a wonderful family. I graduated from Northeast High School and went to University of Phoenix, during my time in college I got pregnant with my first child. It was a hard first few months trying to figure out to stay in school as well take care of a child. During my last year of college I got my first Job at a Private Country Club. That was my first time learning how to really multitask with school, taking care of my daughter, and working. Well three years later I finish with my Bachelor of Science of Administration degree next spring I will go back to get my Master degree in Psychology. I wanted to start this blog to basically show my journey of what I can do as a mom as well aspire other mom out there that no matter what you can do anything that you can put your mind too as well do something that make you happy in life. Come share your journey with me as well let me know what you think of my blog. :)
