New Identity...New Home

So, since I'm totally indecisive when it comes to blogging, I have changed my mind one more time on what it is I want my blog to be about. Luckily, there's not a whole lot invested in this one. SOOO.....

Check out my new home!!

#2 Pinterest Challenge Redo

Hello Friends! So I have had a couple of people tell me that they don't have enough toilet paper rolls to do this weeks challenge so that one will be postponed for another 2 weeks! Until then save save save and see if you can get any more from friends or neighbors!

So.... This is this weeks challenge. Now it's a baby mobile, but for those of you that don't have a baby, it will sure look pretty just hanging in a corner! Use paper that coordinates with your decor! Click the picture for a really great tutorial or don't and see what you can come up with!
I can't wait to see pictures!!

#2 Pinterest Challenge

Hello Friends!!
Well, today is Monday! I'm sorry I haven't posted this sooner. I've been on a cleaning the house spree! I found THIS website through my new favorite website (pinterest...duh) and it really has motivated me!! Check out the Beginning Babysteps to get started!

Anyway, today is the beginning of #2 Pinterest Challenge! I picked something that everyone should have on hand and does not require any sewing!! So no excuses this week ladies!!

Is this not lovely!! Guess what it's made out of....okay I'll tell you...TOILET PAPER ROLLS!!! Who doesn't have those around their house! UPCYCLE them baby!!! This one is from Etsy but I think we can make it for little to no money! I have seen some pretty amazing things made from toilet paper rolls. I mean Look at this!! Click on it for the tutorial!

The bottom one is if you're feeling really crafty but the first picture is the challenge this week!! Also, don't underestimate the power of spray paint!

I can't wait to see pictures!!

#1 Pinterest Challenge Results!

Hello friends!

Well, unfortunately I didn't get any Pinterest challenge pictures from anyway but I hope you had fun making it if you did. I know I did. I wear mine just about everyday and I have designs for future ones also! (I found this gorgeous stretch lace in black at the local wal-mart for 1.27 a yard! I can't wait!)

So here is mine! It's not quite like the challenge but I didn't spend a dime on it! I just used what I already had so I LOVE IT!!! :D  

 

I hope you all had a blessed week. Check in tomorrow for the next great (VERY cheap) Pinterest Challenge!

Also, to sweeten the deal (since my husband said "Well, what do they get for participating") I am going to pick randomly one person who will earn a place for their blog button on my blog for the whole week!

Mothers

I'm a mother. I've been a mother for 3 months and 3 days. I am forever changed. Right now my daughter is sleeping on her fathers chest releasing my lap which is quickly filled up with my laptop. I spend my free time blogging and seeking out inspiration to pass on.
What should I be doing? Probably bathing...definately not playing games on facebook: but alas here I am...

So, I hereby announce Wonderful Mommy Wednesday! Wednesdays are days where I will post simple things to pamper yourselves with. Most of these things will come from things around your house. All things Mommy will be done this day and I will try hard to not post things that will not help you in some way. i.e. saving money, beauty tips and products, fun things to do/make just for you!!

By the way, this is SO not just for mothers. Anyone can participate!! All lovely ladies need some pampering sometimes. So, in honor of Wonderful Mommy Wednesday here's something lovely to pamper yourself with!!

Brown Sugar Body Scrub!!
1. Go to your pantry. You'll need brown sugar, any oil you have, and vanilla extract.
--You don't need the vanilla extract but it does make it smell purty.
2. Put 1/2 cup of sugar into something you can seal. (I used little tupperware bowls)
3. Add enough oil to make it have a somewhat thick but slick texture. *See pic*
4. Add 1tsp of vanilla extract and mix.
**Optional**
5. You can add another tsp of vanilla if you use olive oil because olive oil has an odd smell to it (I think.)

6. Pass the kids to Daddy or put them to bed a little early and hop in the shower!! Enjoy your lovely smooth skin!

Also, grab a button for your blog if you want!

Branding

So...it's 11:01 when I start writing this blog. My lovely daughter has been asleep since 8:30...I'm not asleep because I have been really thinking about "branding". For those of you who may not be aware that's your product image. I just spent two.5 hours totally revamping my blogger header and now I have to go through and change all my buttons and everything else. I tried really hard to make it more professional and something that will translate better.

I really cannot wait...

now, if I can just figure out how to do Blogger layouts! :D
Thanks for reading!!
