    Project: Mason Jar Cookies

    Mason Jar Cookies! What an awesome gift idea…they are quick, easy, and people love to receive them. Last year I made Country Chewy Cookies and they were a hit…but this year I decided to change up a few of the ingredients. My mason jars are from No Frills – super cheap (1L size). On sale for 7.97$ for 12. Good price, especially compared to last year when each Ball Mason Jar set me back 3.99$. 0.75$ or 3.99$…I think I’ll take the 75 cents!! What…

Holiday Napkins So – a good sized napkin measures around 20×20. I get 4 napkins out of one meter (if it measures 45 inches wide). Be sure you’ve washed your fabric first! Set your serger…

    Project: Reversible Bag

    Project Reversible Bag I did it again! I made some reversible bags!! For the first tutorial, check it out here. Last week, or maybe the week before that, I was at ikea picking up pillows for my pillow cover project and I always swing by the fabric section. They had this awesome striped fabric for 6$. Score. A little side note about my trip at ikea. So, I’m waiting in line to get my fabric cut – and the teenage boy who finally found himself…

    Garage Sale Juicer

    Grage Sale Juicer Last weekend the end of our road had a garage sale sign on it. Why not swing by? Usually we keep an extra 5 or 10 dollar bill in the glove box for an emergency – a garage sale is an emergency, right? I think so. 2$ for a juicer?!! Really. Yes! It’s a bit beat up and the owner can’t recall if it works; but, for 2$ – less than a cup of coffee, I’ll take the risk! Plus, look how…
