    I recently discovered another fantastic use for two old friends...The drain in the kid’s bathroom has been slow the last few weeks. I wanted to find a solution to unclog the drain that didn’t include calling a plumber- too expensive. And didn’t include Drano- too toxic.  Read more >

    The 20 Minute Dish Towell. I wanted a quick easy, dish towel for February- a “keep it simple” project.  This decorative dish towel took me 20 minutes to make.  A few months ago I ran across this fabric at a quilt shop and bought enough for one towel, thinking to make a towel for Christmas. Since that didn't happen, I decided to make a dishtowel for Valentine’s day instead.  Read more >

    Here’s a quick and easy gift idea for neighbors or co-workers.  It’s Orange Glazed Poppy Seed Bread.  I received this bread as a gift from a co-worker about 10 years ago… and looooved it.  I think I actually begged for the recipe.  I’ve been making this bread every Holiday season since. Here’s the recipe: Orange Glazed Poppy Seed Bread  Read more >

    Yesterday, my girls and I were working on a few Christmas gifts for their friends.  One thing led to another and I found myself making yet another flower pin.  This time a Poinsettia.  I loved this project and ended up making two for my girls, and plan on making more.  They are perfect as a broach or as a hair clip. Here’s what you will need:  Read more >

    A cozy bed warmer is one of my favorite things.  Put them in the microwave for a few minutes and they work wonders for cold feet, aches and pains, or plain old stress relief.  Bed warmers also make a wonderful gift.  They are easy to make, inexpensive, and both pampering and useful.  Read more >
