Decorating Baby wipes clutch

I'm back.
I was a little sick.
Anyways.
When I had a baby shower I was given a blue "winnie the pooh" wipes clutch.
It's cute but
I had a girl.
Cute wipes clutch can be pricey.
So I decorated it myself.
I took an old dress.

(it's too short, i've been wanting to make it into a shirt.)
I cut a 2 in strip from the very bottom and about 6 in strip for the clutch.
I then cut cut the 6 in thick strip into 2.
Measured what I needed and glued the fabric carefully.
the 2 in strip I used to make a flower.

Glued it on the clutch and added a button.
Voila.

Still blue but cuter.
You could add ribbon to the edge to hide mistakes.

Pictures!

So...
Pictures, Pictures, Pictures
Come on with a beautiful and funny
4 month
how can you resist taking pictures?
Not of myself.
I promise.
I have not taken one of myself since she was born.
Anyways.
What can you do with so many pictures 
without having to pay to print them?
Don't go to the local drugstore to get them on a CD.
I got a thing of A LOT of blank CD's 
for pictures and videos.
So if you have to many pics and videos and don't know what to do them.
Buy a CD case. 
(Nothing expensive.)
And a thing of CDs.
Then after putting them in the CDs 
put them in the CD case.
Problem Solved.
(I still have A LOT of pictures and videos to finish up)
Arrg!

Letter for

So I just love Hobby Lobby.
I needed to begin with that.
I just don't have money to buy things I can't afford.
With a baby girl now I wanted to make her room cute.
But cute can be costly.
I had been wanting to buy those glittery letters to put on her wall.
No money.
Until today,
I decided I was going to make my own.
So I did.
But.
I have no glitter.
I will just have to add the glitter later.
And it cost me $0
That's the best part.


Magazine Binder

So I mentioned before that I had a lot of magazines.
At first I wasn't sure what I could do with so many.
I wanted to keep them.
I just didn't know how to organize them.
Well.
It was easy.
All I needed was a binder and a hole puncher.
(You can use the plastic paper holders instead).
I just cut out articles that interested me,
Hole punched,
And placed in binder.

Stray Pens

Do you have a problem with your pens?
Are they always missing?
Or you find them in the weirdest places?
Why not take something you already own
and use to hold all your pens?

My husband, Casey, bought me flowers for Mothers Day last year. 
Very beautiful, might I add.
My favorite kind.
The hot pink.

Anyways.
Let's just say that the pot holder became available
but I had no use for it.
Wait.
I did.
I used it to hold all my pens, pencils, markers, etc.

Gum in Hair?

How many times do your kids get gum in their hair? Do you take them to a salon and get their hair cut off? Or did it yourself? There is no need for that when you can just do it yourself.
All you need is PEANUT BUTTER!
Yes! It works!
There is no need for scissors and it is really easy.
Just grab peanut butter and apply it on the gum.
Do not be afraid to make a mess. You may need a lot. 
Then just comb it out with a comb.
Simple as that.
Please. I had a lot of mothers bring kids in when I worked in a kids salon, saying "Just cut it off." I would just bring the peanut butter and slap it on.
There's no need to embarrass the child or yourself.
