A few weeks ago I asked around and got someone to send me an invite to Pintrest to occupy my bedrest time. It's definitely addicting and I'm enjoying finding new stuff... so I figured I'd share a few of my FAVORITES. Some of them are now tried and tested, and others are still waiting to be reviewed!
These were super easy. I have a 4-year old boy who hates crafts, so I turned it into a 2 day deal, haha! Day one was him writing his name on a bunch of the hearts and me cutting the tissue into little squares. I only used one piece of red, pink, and white with glitter and ended up with WAY WAY more tissue that I needed... we made 6 of them and I had enough tissue paper to probably do a good 20 or more. The second day was actually putting the tissue paper inside the hearts. It's very simple... put down one layer of clear contact paper, put the heart face down (I guess only matters if there's writing... we had John 15:12 and his name) and then fill the inside of the heart with the tissue squares. "Laminate" with another piece of contact paper and cut them out. We added a magnet to the back of each, but I've seen some people who use ribbon to hang it.
These were shared by a friend on Facebook, and I had to try. I LOVE cake batter... I go to a specific yogurt place in town simply because they offer cake batter flavored frozen yogurt. These are so yummy and SO easy! The recipe calls for almond bark, but I've been using the Wilton candy melts instead. They work really well and taste great. The guys at my husband's work beg for these now! I'm going to make them with fun V-Day sprinkles for our MOPS group next week!
I just love this sign. I don't know that I could make my writing that pretty... I'd probably just have to spend a lot on the right sized scrapbooking stickers... but I just love this for an entryway or kitchen!
I don't know that I would do the fancy aspect... I have NO idea where I could hang it... but I love the idea of putting the herbs in mason jars. It seems like an easy way to move the herbs around if you needed to (for sunlight or whatever), creative, and easy to expand or replant as necessary. Then if one herb dies, I don't have 1/4 of a planter looking bad.
