The Joy of Moving - Packed Craft Boxes



I am getting super excited to moving into our new house! I am not excited over all of my stuff (especially my sewing and crafting supplies) is packed in boxes. I look at Pinterest and really want to get crafty, but can't :(

So I thought I would digitally craft LOL - here are the projects I long to make...and will once we move. Shoot me an email with pics of your latest projects, or if you decide to make one of the projects I pinned shoot me pics of the finished product.

And this is just a very small sample of some of the things I am dying to make. Check out my Pinterest boards for more great crafts.

A Rainy Day and Play Dough

So it has been raining here for about 2 days and so my little Cloe has been board. So today we tried out making our own play dough. It was so much fun and pretty easy too.

Here is where I found the recipe kristanlynn.com or you can find it on my pinterest page under CLOE.

I didn't really take that many photos (kind of hard to take a bunch while having a three year old on a chair next to the stove).

We followed the recipe as directed with the following changes

We used a smaller pot which made it easier to stir and we added some glitter while it cooked.

Here are the directions from Kristan Lynn

Ingredients: 1 C Flour
1 C Water
1/4 C Salt
1 TBSP Vegetable Oil
2 tsp Cream of Tarter
Food Coloring (actual coloring or a kool-aid packet will do)
Sparkles (If you wanna be a fun mom!)
Sauce Pan and Wooden Spoon 
Little helping hands.







We ran out of salt so we are off to the store to get some more so we can make some more colors. ENJOY
