I don’t know about you, but I love fruit! I love this time of year because the fruit is actually fresh and there is so much more variety. We would just put our fruit on top of the microwave, not very cute. So I came up with this idea. I just took a bowl that…
Whatever Wednesday
Whatever Wednesday: Wedding on a budget
2 weeks ago I was asked by some missionaries to decorate for a wedding of an investing couple. Without really thinking, I told them yes. Then I realized that I was doing. I panicked! Luckily I have this blog because I wrote a post and you all came to the rescue! So thank you!! One…
Whatever Wednesday: Spiderman Frames
For several months now, my 5 year old has been wanting me to decorate his room with Spiderman. I have been looking everywhere for cheap decorations, but of course you can’t buy them, you have to make them. So when I saw these place mats in the Target dollar bins (I love those bins, I…
Whatever Wednesday: Yarn Wreath
I have seen lots of people wrap things with twine and string. I have a ton of yarn, so I thought that I would give it a try. I just took a floral wreath that I got from the dollar store and started wrapping. It was fun. My two younger boys even helped. I would…
Whatever Wednesday:Gift Box, St. Patrick’s Day
Now that it is about time for St. Patrick’s Day, it’s about time for me to switch my gift box decorations. Now that St. Patrick’s Day is only two weeks away, this will probably be my only decoration (at least I have one, right?) I’m really loving this whole gift box decor, it’s so cheap,…
Whatever Wednesday: Guiltless Alfredo Sauce
I am not much of a cook, I just don’t enjoy that much. Maybe it’s because my kids never cooperate and make it so much harder to cook. Or maybe it’s because I’m not very good at it. Either way, I just don’t love cooking. But I do love it when I find a recipe…
Whatever Wednesday: Home made Valentines
Now that my oldest is in preschool, I got to make home made valentines with them. It was a lot of fun! This is by far the best part of the holiday, coming up with cute rhymes or sayings! I remember one year, filling a funnel with mini M&M’s, putting a piece of thread at…
Whatever Wednesday:Washer Necklace
I am not a girly girl, I rarely do my hair, wear makeup or wear jewelry. I wish that I was the type of girl that could pull off the cute headbands and earrings but I can’t. I can never find the type or color of jewelry that I want to wear and when I…
Whatever Wednesday: Clips, headband and bracelets
My good friend just had her first little girl on Monday, so I decided that I wanted to try to make her some bows and headbands. My wonderful sister gave me ribbon about 6 months ago and I was planning on using it on cards and scrapbooking, but I definitely found a better use for…
Whatever Wednesday: Rocking Chair Makeover
This is the rocking chair that I bought from a garage sale for my baby’s nursery. It is very comfortable and big, but doesn’t really match the decor in his room. So I painted the chair white and put blue fabric all over it. I then painted some wooden buttons brown and sewed those on….
Whatever Wednesday: Thank You Cards
Today is the day that will change from week to week. I may not even post at all, depending on the week. Wednesdays are for projects and crafts that I do that are cute ideas but really don’t need much explaining, or maybe I’ll post pictures of crafts that I want to do from other…
