Homemade wipes.






What you need:
-measuring cup and spoons
-1/2 Tbs.baby oil
-1 Tbs baby wash
-2 cups of water
-wipe container
-good soft paper towels (such as viva)
-serrated knife


How to:
First you take the paper towels and cut them in half with a really sharp serrated knife. Then remove the brown cardboard in the middle. Then in the middle of the paper towels pull the towels up through the middle. Than take your baby oil, baby wash and water and mix it together in your measuring cup and mix it together. Take your paper towels and put them in your wipe container and then pour you solution on top of the wipes.

***If you don't use them frequently I would suggest doing half of the recipe. Because after a couple of weeks they can become sour. And too if you don't have a stand up wipe container you can just take the wipes off the roll and stack them in a regular container.



Kids halter top and bracelet.


What you need:
-A T-shirt
-Fabric paint
-sharp scissors
-piece of cardboard

How to: First I followed these instructions on cutting a halter at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDxR1pbvBOI. After I did that I put a piece of cardboard and put it in between the shirt and made a design and panted it on my shirt. While that was drying I took the sleeve that I cut off and made a bracelet out of by following the same instructions of doing the back of the shirt.







A fun purse craft to do with little girls.


Things you need:
- Canvas purse
-fabric paint
-glitter
-elmer's glue
-fabric glue
-rhinestones
-wax paper
-stencils
I bought all this stuff at the dollar tree except for the glues. So this is a really cheap project.

You use the fabric glue to put on the rhinestones. And you use the glue to spread all over the purse for the glitter to adhere to. You use the wax paper to put inside the purse so the glue and paint don't go through to the other side of the purse. Decorate as you would like and let dry. Hope you guys enjoy it.

Birdfeeder.






What you need:
-acrylic paint
-buttons
-milk/juice carton
-glue
-scissors
-small stick(for pirch)
-string(I used fishing wire)
First I I cut a hole in the front of the feeder. Then I punched a hole right below the hole just big enough for the stick to fit through. (don't stick the stick in yet. Then I I punched a hole in the top for the string to go through. After that I painted the carton and let it dry. Once it was dry I glued the buttons on. once those were dry I glued in the pirch and strung it with the string. I put food in it and then hung it from the tree.

Homemade Jalapeno poppers.

How to: First you cut the jalapenos in half lengthwise. Clean all the seeds out with a spoon and then rinse them. Make sure they are dried completely before filling. Then you fill them with the cream cheese wrap them with a piece of bacon and then secure with a toothpick. You bake them in an oven on 300 for about 30-45 minutes.Or until the bacon is cooked and the jalapeno is soft.

Breakfast Ideas for back to school.

-I have made pancakes in large amounts ahead of time and put them in the freezer. Then when you're ready to eat them you heat them up in the toaster. To make it even easier I use the complete pancake mix, you only have to add water. And to me they are just as good as the other.
-With the pancakes too, you can roll sausage up in them and put them in the freezer.
-You can make french toast ahead of time and freeze them too.
