October.- Lately.




















October lately.

- Crafts.- We've been busy making cute spiders and monsters. - Some with three eyes and others with funky feet. ;)  We're definitely enjoying this time.

-Reading- We've been reading a lot of books.- Our oldest will normally check out which books she wants from the library.- If we miss a trip to the library, we'll just pull a book from our bookshelf. So on our down time we enjoy cuddling up with a  good book.

-Baking- This weekend we made a simple batch of sugar cookies. We added frosting and 
Sprinkles.- There were a few we decorated with icing.- This was a very enjoyable time with my family.

-Games- We absolutely love playing games as a family. -This weekend it was Monopoly Junior.

-Building- Our oldest daughter has built a fire truck and a haunted bird house. We've been going to the workshops at both Lowe's and Home Depot. She loves it and we love that she enjoys being so hands on with these little projects.

How are you enjoying your time this month?

The Crazy Little Lovebirds Link Party 105

  Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #105! This party offers a platform for sharing inspiring content, including recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home décor, and other uplifting ideas. Happy Friday! How is everyone doing? While I'm at it, how's the weather where you are? Our temperatures are starting to cool off; tomorrow, they say our high will be in the 60s.  We're still seeing a few hummingbirds at the feeder, and I recently made a ladybug house so that if any want a place to stay when the weather gets colder, they can move right in. I've never had one myself, but I did some research before building it. It's essentially a bug hotel. They have the cutest bee hotel at our local nature center, too. So it helped me with a few different ideas. I hope you are all doing well, and if I haven't told you lately, thank you so much for joining the party each week. I appreciate all of you! Now, onto the wonderful featured posts. Congratulations,...

DIY Tea Tin Planter for Sweet Mint

Today’s tiny DIY win: turning an empty lemon‑ginger tea tin into a planter for a sweet mint plant that needed some love. I cleaned the tin, added drainage, and nestled the mint inside. It instantly brightened up the space — the colors on the tin and the fresh green leaves look so sweet together. I love giving everyday items a second life, especially when they end up this cute. Quick Video Tutorial  I began this little project by cleaning out an empty metal tea container that I had saved. It still held a soft scent of lemon and ginger, and I loved the idea of giving it a second life. Once I washed and dried it, the container felt ready for a new purpose.   Next, I used a finishing nail and a hammer to create a few drainage holes in the bottom of the tin. Since metal containers don’t have natural drainage, this step helps keep the roots healthy and prevents the soil from becoming soggy. Having prepared the container, I carefully removed the sweet mint from its original pot. The ...
