My very first rag quilt, made for sweet little baby EN.
A zigzag quilt I made. There was a shortcut for this, where you didn't have to sew a ton of different rectangles together to make each quilt square. I made this in March or April of 2012, so I don't remember what the shortcut was! I guess I'll have to go back to Pinterest to see!
Another rag quilt that I made for Peanut. He picked out the colors himself!
Reese's Pieces cookie cuppycakes that I made for the Woodman's birthday.
Another rag quilt....I think this was made for sweet baby AH.
Cinnamon sugar doughnuts made from biscuits. They were horrible. Absolutely disgusting. So horrible that I wanted to sacrifice myself and eat all of them so that the Woodman wouldn't have to suffer..... PS- I'm not allowed to make these again. They were like crack.
Some sort of chicken, potatoes, and beans cooked all in one dish meal. I think you put all these in a dish, melt some butter over all of it, and then sprinkle with a pack of Italian dressing mix. Muy yummyo!
The next two photos are of Peanut's Santa sack. The idea behind this is that our Elf on the Shelf drops it off at our house on Christmas Eve. Peanut then has to go through his old toys and put a few in for Santa to give to needy children. Then Santa leaves Peanut's new toys in the sack.
Peanut's birthday teepee
I saw several different types of teepees on Pinterest and it planted the idea in my head. I found a Simplicity pattern at JoAnn's Fabrics and made this!
Sesame Teriyaki Spaghetti Squash with Edamame
A big hit! So much so that my four year old wanted to plant spaghetti squash in our garden this year!
I came across this ridiculously easy project and made it for Peanut. Unfortunately, Lucky has claimed it for himself. He allows Peanut to use it from time to time. Maybe I'll make another one for Peanut one day...
Cauliflower Pizza Crusts
These were surprisingly good, although time consuming to make! Peanut enjoyed getting to create his own pizza. He devoured it!
Peanut's new favorite game! He loves sweeping dirt into the square! He now walks into the kitchen (sometimes even with pants on!!!) and will sweep if he sees dirt!
Bath dirt
This was a big hit too! Baking soda+ food coloring= an hour of bath time fun!
Bath finger paints
These were super easy to make! Peanut had so much fun I had to drain the water and add warm water again. He was all prune-y when he got out of the bath that night!
Growing food from scraps
This was an experiment I conducted. The first photo shows day one, middle photo is day four, and bottom photo is day seven. Since this picture, I've added the bottom of a head of romaine lettuce. Not sure if that will regrow like the celery.
My flower pot tower
This was a super easy and relatively cheap project. It took awhile to finish though. I was sooo excited to start this. I began on a really warm day in late January by spray painting a clear coat on the pots. Then we had 10 weeks of cold weather and the spray paint instructions said no spray painting under 65 degree weather. Then they sat empty for another couple of weeks until it warmed up to plant my basil. The basil has recently been pruned, hence the small size.
The last two photos aren't my Pinterest projects. These are the Woodman's projects. The first is our green bean towers. As the beans grow, they'll wrap around and grow up the tower.
The Woodman's fire pit
This sucker is the BEST! It is well used. Many a s'more has been made over it.
Well, I think that's everything I've made so far from ideas I've seen on Pinterest. My next post will be about my adventures in making wood butter. Wood butter, you ask? Stay tuned to find out!
