Week 8!! Lace to patch holes in my jeans!!

So I bought these Silver jeans that come with holes already in them but my son likes to pick at the holes and of course stretched it all out so I seen this idea on PINTEREST and thought it was supper cute!! Now there is no reason to throw out your expensive jeans!! I used spray on fabric glue to adhere the lace over the hole. Simply turn the jeans inside out, spray the jeans where the hole is and stick the lace over and let dry!! It really is that easy!!

Here is the link attached to the pin:

You can also find it on my clothes board right on PINTEREST. It was so super easy to do. It took less than 10 seconds and the one yard of lace cost me literally $2.10 at fabric land!

Here's a picture of my jeans all fixed up!!
A close up and some further away.

Week 6!!! Wedding Card Album

So I have been hoarding my Wedding cards for almost 6 years now thinking about something to do with them. Well I found an idea on PINTEREST!!! I couldn't get the picture off of PINTEREST so you'll have to go to the ladies blog to see it but I will post mine!! It doesn't really look like a book but I punched holes in the center of each card and strung a ribbon through all of them and tied it off. Then I tied a big ribbon around the whole album to keep it together a bit better. It took me just about 2 hours and I broke 2 punches doing it all but I like how it turned out!! Let me know what you think.

Week 5!!! Cinnamon Bun Popcorn

This week I decided to make this popcorn because it looked so so yummy, and it was!!!

The picture is from PINTEREST wont upload to my computer so you'll have to look on her blog at: http://www.laurenslatest.com/cinnamon-bun-popcorn/

Cinnamon Bun Popcorn
yield: 4 servings

2 tablespoons vegetable or canola oil
1/2 cup popcorn kernels
a few dashes of salt
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon cinnamon, or more if desired
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon half & half

Directions:
In a small bowl, mix butter and cinnamon together. Set aside. In a separate small bowl, mix powdered sugar with half & half until smooth. You may have to stir in a little more half & half to get it to drizzling consistency. Set aside.

Place oil and popcorn kernels into a large pot. Cover with tight fitting lid or foil. Place pot over high heat. Shake pot back and forth over hot burner to heat kernels evenly. Continue shaking the pot until the popcorn starts to pop. After a minute or two, the popping will slow right down and you’ll have a pot full of popcorn. Dump the hot popcorn onto a baking sheet and drizzle with cinnamon butter immediately. Stir to coat. Drizzle the icing over the top and toss to coat as well. Serve warm, or let it cool so the icing can harden up a bit.

Recipe notes: It’s important to keep the pot moving the entire time its over the heat–this ensures the kernels don’t ever burn.
