  Stay Cozy This Winter ❄❄|❄❄ A list of ideas to stay cozy Create meals using your Crockpot I love using my Instant Pot to explore new recipes, especially during the colder months. From delicious stews to chili and soups, there's always something new to try. Create warm drink recipes A few favorites--  Simple Herbal Spice Tea Recipe  and  Warm citrus tea   Explore hot cocoa, tea, and coffee recipes. I also love tea delivery right to my front door. If you have time, check out  Atlas Tea Club  and  Sipsby Tea . I was very fortunate to sample tea from both tea companies, and I loved the tea I received!  Create a blanket basket I enjoy making blanket baskets in various rooms of my home. All I do is grab a basket and fill it with a few throws, including some lighter ones and an electric blanket. This way, there's always a cozy blanket within reach no matter where you are in the house. Decorate your coffee/tea bar If you have a coffee bar or tea ba...

 Hi everyone! I hope all is well with you. Today I am going to take my almost 20-year-old shoji screen and transform it using just a few materials I had on hand. I purchased this shoji screen when living in Arizona. When my husband, and I moved around due to the military, this screen followed along with us. It has been through a lot. I decided over the weekend that I would give it a complete makeover. I'd love to share my experience with all of you. This project took one day to complete. I decided to keep the white shoji paper and work around it. Materials  Peel and stick wallpaper -The roll I am using was purchased at Lowe's during a sale they had. I believe it was $37 for the package. And it only takes one to complete this project Paint- I'm using my leftover Valspar furniture and cabinet paint Adhesive- E6000 Paintbrush Ruler  Scissors Spray paint Screwdriver Start by applying paint to the frame on each section of your shoji screen. I only applied paint to the outer su...

Hello all! This craft is easy and a lot of fun. I recently came across assorted fruit stickers at my local Dollar Tree, and I thought of using them for a summer craft. Today, we'll be making a colorful summer hanging design. I only had to buy the stickers for this, and I spent around three dollars on this project. I already had most of the materials on hand. Materials: - Assorted fruit stickers - Summer word wood decoration - Wood frame - Paint - Faux succulents - Paintbrush or sponge brush - Twine -  Hot glue - Scissors - Floral cutters Start by applying paint to your wooden frame. Apply around two coats of paint. Set your frame aside, and allow it to dry. Next, begin painting your wooden summer word decoration. Add gems or glitter. Then set it aside to dry. Once the frame and decorations are dry, use hot glue to attach your summer word decoration to the sign. After, take your assorted stickers, and begin to add them to your wood frame. You are now ready to cut your succulents. Us...
