Easy DIY Zipper Pouch

Several months ago I share this post on another site.  So it is time to show here.  I am sharing a simple Zipper Pouch you can make in 30 minutes or less. They are perfect for a small gift, holding small things in your purse or for toys for the kiddos! 

Easy French Door Window coverings with Command Strips

I have 2 sets of French Doors in my house. Both have a bay to add some depth to the room.  But with that depth comes a whole new problem. The cost of getting window coverings.  Have you seen the prices for window treatments for bay windows, let alone doors. I searched high and low for window treatments and cam up with nothing.  

In my mind that means, come up with my own solution.  

So I did.  I cam up with this easy to make solution for under $50. Much better than the $400 alternative.

Designing with Chairish.com

Oh how I would love a fully furnished house with all the fancy stuff.  Sometimes I just look and what is out there and think of different designs I would like to have.  Here is one design that I feel in love with. 

 I adore the color Turquoise. 

 I love this Turquoise couch.  It is my absolute favorite! I found it on Chairish.com. Charish is a website with vintage furniture for your home!

A new look.. Lush Decor $200 Giveaway

Do you ever get the new year blues?  Christmas is over, it's cold out side and we are all stuck inside.  For me that means I want to change things up a bit.  I want to paint walls, change bedding and decor. Sometimes I make all of my own stuff but sometimes it is just easier to find a great deal on the web and order it!  Well if you fall into the latter category then this post is for you!

I found this awesome site, Lush Decor that can fill your home decor needs! They are a new start up that sells bedding, Window Treatments and Bathroom Decor!  

Orange you glad, Valentine Printable

Continuing on with my candy free valentines, I made this fun Orange printable with heart shaped wedges.  You can pair it with a real orange or you can use the cups of Mandarin oranges.  My local Sam's Club has them on sale through the end of January. They make an adorable treat for the kids!

I know this one had been done before.  But I really like having it on these Mandarin orange cups.  They can eat them now or later.

My Nutty Valentine printable

While shopping at Sam's Club I found these little Debbie snacks.  I remember them fondly from my childhood.  I though they would make an adorable Nutty Valentine  for one of my kids classes at school.  For 12 snack packs it cost about $4.  I can have a fun treat for my daughters class for under $8.  Perfect!

Cheese and Crackers Valentine

When you were a kid do you remember those little packs of Crackers with a cheese  and the little red stick to spread it with.  They were a special treat for my family.  We loved them on car trips or on special occasions.  And know my kids love them too.  

My local Sam's Club carries them so I sometimes treat my kids with them in their school lunch.  So this year I though it might be cute to make them into a Valentine.  For about $8 for 24 packs and my free printable you can make your own Valentine for you kids classes! 

You're the Cheese to my Crackers Valentine!

Vintage Popcorn Valentine Printable

I LOVE Vintage Valentines! I wish they were easier to find.  I love the colors and saying and images they used way back when.  

 This one made me giggle. So I put it in Photoshop and made some multiples.  I taped it to a bag of single serve popcorn and you have the Corniest Valentine ever! 

Healthy Mexican Lettuce Wraps

This dinner is just to delicious to not share.  I found something similar online over at Damn Delicious that was a vegetarian meal and it sounded good.  But I needed to make it fit my dietary needs and I like meat. So I did a little changing and came up with this easy to make, one pan dish.  My kids (the pickiest eaters ever)  even loved it! It is packed full of veggies, protein and fiber and tastes delish.  This one is going on the menu for sure!
