New project for Feb. Teaching myself how to make Origami.




So I have decided to teach myself something new every month. January was sewing and Feb is making origami. I always thought it would be fun to do origami so I did a search and found some sights to help me and and when I was done these Lily's are what I came up with. Once you get the hang of it it is really kind of fun.

Valentines day fun.


Make your crayons into funner crayons. I saw this on a craft blog and thought I would give it a try. All you do is brake up some of your old crayons and stick them into any kind of mold you want them to take shape as. Put into the oven for 8 to 12 min on 300. Then let them cool for 15 min. They really still color and little kids will love them.

I had to try these candy cane hearts I also saw this on a craft blog and these are so easy to make. You take two candy canes any size and stick the ends together on a cookie sheet. Turn the oven on 350 and let cook for 3 min. When they are out of the oven push the edges together so they stay together. Get some melting chocolate melt it in the microwave then put it in the middle part of the hart and let harden. these are really good they keep the same taste and they are cute.

Peanut butter bars are my hubbies favorite so we made him some for valentines day. I did a little decorating on top with some melting chocolates and I do have to say they tasted really good:)
