Scrappy Banner!

I got banner happy today :)  I decided that our closet needed a makeover, so after painting it "Tropical Pool" by Behr paint, I thought that I needed to make a banner for our closet...  Make it cozy, and fun!  Even thought it's just a closet, it's where we start our day!  Pictures of the renovated closet will be posted soon!  Here is a preview of the banner!  Side note: Banner pics were taken in our bathroom - not our closet. 

Snow Fun!

What's more fun than crafting in the snow??!!  It wasn't too cold out today, and the snow was just right for building our snow family.  We started with just a snowman, but he needed a friend to keep him company!  Who said a snowman needs a carrot for a nose?!  We had to improvise and use a banana - though I don't think it's going to last very long.  I hope you don't forget to get outside and enjoy the snow while it's here.  A snowy day can certainly be a fun one. 

T-Shirt Scarf Mania!

The T-Shirt scarf craze has been around for a while - but I thought I'd post a few I made a few months ago.  If you are going to attempt to make these, make sure you get at least a size Large for the t-shirts.  I went to Goodwill for mine.  You can make them in any color imaginable!  I ordered black and gold tie-dye shirts and have the scarfs available!!  The are the same design as the dark pink scarf.  Let me know if you'd like to see a picture, they turned out really neat! 

Budget In Style

Budget, budget, budget!  We find it easiest to budget in our household.  Every Friday, I take out cash for Groceries, Fun Money, Personal Cash & Christmas.  I don't budget for everything, but when budgeting for these particular items, it sure helps save us money!  It's easy to go overboard on groceries, and going out to eat...  

These envelopes make budgeting easy, and fun!  I'll upload a template so you can make your own!  I just used scrapbook paper.  Make up a bunch ahead of time, and you'll be on the "fast track" to budgeting!
