Influenster delivery!!!

We have been trying out our new #brauntherms that we got from www.influenster.com to test out. My son is very happy that he doesn't have to get poked or have something in his ear. ESP if he has a cold when his ears hurt. It's been very user friendly and accurate so far!  Would definitely recommend it if you're in the market for a new thermometer.

New sewing craft!

I have been following this creative mama's blog. She has super cute 20 minute craft posts!

My Infinity scarves were the first one that I tried and now I tried this one with dish towels! 










Check out her blog if you want instructions!! 

More toddler car entertainment ideas

Tried to make some more stuff to entertain in the car. Felt Velcro chain. Clothespin color matching pie 



The clothespin thing was ok. Lasted like 5 min though. 



 The only real big hit was the fishing pole and the foam magnetized 
 fish. He still asks to play with it even after the road trip.

So easy anyone can do it.

Trying to come up with some last minute ideas for this road trip we are about to embark on. Good thing is that one way we will be traveling at night but even one way can be hell. 
Made some counting sticks as he is learning to count in school. I'll let ya know if he enjoys them or throws them out the window 
I had more trouble deciding on WHAT to put on them than actually  doing it. I was trying to decide if shell casings
And wine corks were appropriate to use

Bridal showers

It may not be considered crafty but I have been designing decorations and Favors for the bridal showers I have been hosting! 

The silverware holders are upcycled from soup cans ! 


I came up with all of these centerpieces and place settings too :-) 




Hard to see but I put together all these pails of favors , made the tags for them and designed the lantern decorations. 




Bento supplies!!



Bento supplies in case you wanted to see all the goodies that are out there!!!
