    DIY – Simple Candy Cane Bath Salts with gift tag

    December 2, 2019 / 0 Comments

    Looking for a small, easy gift idea for those girlfriends? This is the easiest and simplest Candy Cane Bath Salts tutorial you will ever find! First, gather the containers you will be using to give your gift of bath salts in. I found little unused brand new glass jars at a garage sale last Summer. Next, Purchase some Epsom Salt and Peppermint essential oil.  Since this is just a simple & easy bath salt I didn’t want the fizz that goes with a bath bomb so I opted out of using baking soda or any other ingredients. If I could buy just Peppermint Epsom salt I would! Per every cup…

    Round Framed Skeleton For Halloween Home Décor

    October 25, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Have you ever seen a round frame where the glass inside of it bubbles outward? The thing I love about garage sales is the ability to find random items and recycle or up-cycle them. So this bubbled frame got revamped and turned into a fun Halloween frame Skeleton skull. First I found a copy of this Vintage Anatomy Skull  which I thought was absolutely darling! If you want to create the same print the skull out. Remove all the explanations below by cutting the skull print to the size of the frame.  Once you have the piece of paper to fit the size of the frame you’ll want to put a little…

    Check out this adorable Ice Cream Gift Basket that I put together for a friend.
