Birthday Outfit
I made a cupcake onesie and tutu for my little girl's first birthday. For the cupcake I simply folded a wide satin ribbon in half, and sewed the edges together. Then carefully placed it in a cupcake shape, hiding the sewn edge under the ruffles. I was really happy with how it turned out! Yay for cute babies and their birthdays!

Easy Window Treatments
For all of you non-sewers out there, this was the first time I had ever sewn anything (that I can remember). And once you figure out how to thread the stinkin' machine, it's really not that hard! So whip out your long lost sewing machine and give it a try!

Positively Delectable!
1 cake mix (flavor of your choice)
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
Bake at 350 for 15 minutes and wabaam! Delicious cookies! I personally love to add frosting to the top, you can also add to the batter itself with nuts, m&m's, or whatever your heart desires. Let your imagination run wild and go make some cookies!
Note: Jan tells us this makes 4 dozen, but I must make big cookies because I don't even get 4 dozen when I double the recipe.

Paint Colors
When we were preparing to move we were very excited because it was the first time we would be moving into a home, and actually be able to add our own touches. As we all know, the cheapest decorating technique is to spruce up a room with paint. I looked at all different types of stores, searching through their paint chip selection, trying to find the perfect ones for our new (rented) home.
Today I'd like to start with the dining room- Behr Silver Screen.
People thought I was crazy to paint a room gray but I must admit this was the room I was most excited about. The room in its entirety still needs a little work but it is painted a beautiful Silver Screen! And I absolutely love it!
