St Patrick's Day simple treat

This sweet little treat was delivered to my house last week. So simple and so sweet, my children loved getting something in the mail first of all and second of all having something to eat....they loved it!

St Patrick's Day idea


She used a piece of paper stamped with a shamrock wrapped around candy. What a sweet idea that doesn't cost very much. (well if you hand deliver it) Perfect idea for your little ones or someone who you should do something a little special for.


Thank you Carrie my children LOVED IT!!!

Some of my favorite bathroom re dues.....


You have to check them out at Jessica's blog. They are so simple changes that anyone could do. The nice thing is that it is not a huge bathroom remodel.
There are more pictures at her blog but this picture over the bath tub is my favorite. I would love to know how much that simple change cost?

Just a Girl

This was a little more of a remodel but so worth it. I have always loved ocean themed bathrooms. They remind me of clean look and the peace of being at the beach.

You'll have to check out the blog there are amazing before and after pictures.

simple changes to simple places

My tip for you: change things that you currently have. If it be a new stain on furniture or paint. Pillows on a bed or sofa. It's a lot cheaper than a new item. Here are some things I've discovered that I like and wanted to share.

St Patrick's Day treat

yummy St. Patrick's Day treat and so sweet!


4 simple ingredients:
Melting chocolate
green M&M's
Pretzels
Green Sprinkles

I laid out wax paper, placed a layer of pretzels then melted the chocolate. Poured over pretzels and then sprinkled with M&M's and green sprinkles. Let chocolate harden and separated some of the larger chunks. That's it, yummy treat for a green holiday.

Wrapping A Present


Wrapping a present isn't very difficult, usually.
However, I like a fancy looking wrapped present.
It was my Mom's Birthday this past weekend so I tried something new.



I purchased this paper at the after Christmas sale.
I love this wired ribbon.
I topped it with a felt bow...
in Hot Pink.
I love Pink.





I made this with 3" circles and just folded them.
I hot glued them onto another circle.
I made this so it would slide onto the ribbon to be used on something else later.
