Haunted Heads
I had two main projects I wanted to accomplish this Halloween. One project was my Silver Faceless Aliens and the second was some posts with masks, or: Haunted Heads! I decided to do these after I saw a pin. But unfortunately, no matter which pin I opened I couldn't find the instructions to make these. … Continue reading Haunted Heads
Cousin It… Oh Yeah!

If you want to make this you will need to find the pieces and order them so that this is done before Halloween! Get my new e-book on Amazon! It’s free with Kindle … Continue reading Cousin It… Oh Yeah!
Trash Bag Witch Circle/Ghost ring
I love making Halloween decorations, but I think they should be nearly free. Most of the things in our yard are homemade (with the exception of a couple of blow up displays and some skeletons.)

Max Probiotic Yogurt
After a few years of making yogurt I have fiddled around and changed my base recipe. I still make a Greek yogurt type product using ultra pasteurized half and half and I'm still using the same inulin, but I've changed the probiotics. The first year I made yogurt I made three different probiotic strains and … Continue reading Max Probiotic Yogurt

Instructions for creating … Continue reading Reaping The Rewards Of Spring Planning

I got a call the other day from a neighbor. "I have seven bricks, do you want them?" "Yes! Yes, I do!" I have plans for bricks, and free ones are the best kind! These plans were sparked by regularly spending hours on Pinterest (Can't sleep? It's Pinterest time!) and randomly remembering a few pins … Continue reading Painting Pavers To Look Like Books
