The Wonderful World of Pinterest!

   Crafting..left & right! Thanks to my 100% ABSOLUTELY FAVORITE WEBSITE! (pinterest.com) I thought I would share some useless/pointless/yummy/decorative ideas that I found and tried!

-Winter Time = Chapped Lips :(
  - Here is a lip scrub recipe that I tried & loved!
   -2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of honey
   - Mix together, rub on lips in small circles, let sit for 1 minute, then wipe off with warm water.. Tada!

-Easy & Cheap Deco!
   -hot glue gun, spray paint, wine bottle

Example I found online.

My finished product!

-Felt Flowers for headbands, wreaths..etc..

- Here is the How-to link:http://thecraftedsparrow.blogspot.com/2011/08/felt-flowers.html

My Felted Flowers:

On a Picture Frame

..flowers on a wreath..more pics of the wreath when it's complete! It's for my baby niece's arrival!

-Apple Chips!

- apples + cinnamon + oven @ 250 degrees (for 2 hours) = homemade apple chips.

My Apple Chips!

...Apple Chips that I never got to eat.. apparently you need to spray the pan because they won't come up! (at all!)

Hope you have enjoyed some of my Pinterest finds!

Happy Weekend!

Catching up on the Holidays!

My Pretty Christmas Tree!

I have been non-existent in the blogging world! I'm back and trying to make it a weekly routine! Catching you up on Christmas! Here are some pictures!

Elliott is so happy!

...onto New Year's Eve!

We had several friends over and enjoyed some photo booth fun!

We rang in 2012 downtown. Cheers!

My baby niece is continuing to grow! My sister will now be 34 weeks next week, and may be taken off of best rest! I have been giving Addison special attention! She likes to run errands around town with me, but sometimes they are challenging! (haha)
