Baby Spice

Don't ask me about the title... it just came out.

So I've got a baby and HATE throwing anything away, so I was wondering what to do with these baby food jars. Enter Pinterest, yes folks, the amazing space I can get lost in for days. The result is that now all my spices are in baby food jars, attached to magnets, attached to my fridge, which in turn resulted in more space in my tiny kitchen.  I have a family of six, I'll take any space I can get!

Dressing Up Candles

Before


                                                                                  
As I'm writing and stuff in my dining room, I often look at these
boring candles on really cool, gothic-looking candlesticks.  Today I had an idea.  I merely bought some pretty black ribbon and glued it around each candle with craft glue (I LOVE Amazing Goop).  Made a big difference, didn't it?  I love it!

Fun With Buttons

I've been meaning to share these pictures for some time now.  I got both these ideas from Pinterest.

My daughter, Sierra, and her friend Mary made decorated a plain white lampshade with buttons to create a super cute lamp for Ian's room.




I am quite proud of how these letters to the right turned out! I bought plain letters at Hobby Lobby and glued buttons on with craft glue. Cute, huh?
