Outlet covers

My attempt at recreating this pin... Outlet covers with scrapbook paper and mod podge...
P.S. There's different sizes of outlet covers... I bought new covers that were smaller than those already in my apt so in this case there's a little hole that the new outlet cover didn't cover....

Headbands

I don't sew.  I don't own a sewing machine.  So when I found this pin I was so excited!




I made these for the Butler family photos.  There were fantastically easy and fun.

Christmas Cookies for Neighbor Giveaways

For my fellow apartment renters I made these amazing cookies.  I say amazing because they are both super easy, super tasty, and super feastive!  I pinned this pin which showed me the way.



I ran out of the right colored M&Ms so I had to made do with other colors.  It all tastes the same, come on.


My husband LOVED the tasty peanut butter taste.

Best Idea for a 1st yr Bday Party EVER!

From this pin I got this WONDERFUL idea.  For a first year birthday party print out a picture of each month of their first year and hang them up on a ribbon held by cloths pins with the number of month glued to the pin.



Seems like a lot of pictures but that is because it was for a twin birthday party.

Pom poms

Made these from a blog that I got from this pin.  I LOVE this blog.  She has such cute ideas and this one was soooo easy.  So easy in fact I made the pom poms for two different events.  

Baby boy shower


Baby girl first year bday party.


I also got the balloon idea from this pin

Cafe Rio Burrito Copycat

Tonight I finally had enough time to try out this copycat recipe I got from Pinterest.  What a fun blog!  I mean talk about some great recipes and this one didn't disappoint.  It did take me awhile to do, but it was worth it.  I made the rice, beans, pork, and sauce.  The only thing lacking was homemade tortillas.  I just couldn't justify time for that one.  I should have taken pictures, but there was too much of a mess after I was done.  Just know it was yummy and I had to loosen my pants just a bit I ate so much :)
