How I Became Shared Jelly

When my husband and I first got married we used to get messages on our answering machine for "Shared" and "Jelly" instead of Jared and Shelly. The first time we chuckled a little over it and by the fourth or fifth time, we decided the name should stick somewhere. And so, I've been sharing jelly all over the internet since. Enjoy!

Hang Man

 I made a felt version of Hangman that we could take with us when we travel or need something to keep us busy while we are waiting.  I used the Melissa and Doug Hangman for inspiration and came up with this little guy.
I have a flat piece of red felt glued to a piece of cardboard for the backing.  I made the little man out of felt that I hand stitched then made a bunch of letters using puffy paint.  The great thing about felt is that things will stay in place on them pretty well (just like a felt board).  I looked up how many of each letter they had in a standard scrabble game as a guide.   We recently went on a long car trip and the kids enjoyed this little guy.
