Living Simply By Heather Leigh

I couldnt stand waiting for Thanksgiving, and since it's not at our house I decided to set up for Christmas early..inside anyway...I'll do outside after Thanksgiving, I don't want to be one of thoooose people. We have a charlie brown christmas, afterall it's only our second Christmas together in our own house.  Our first one was like three ornaments, our second was in Afghanistan, and our third was at his gramma's house...she decorated for us though!  Arent these snow plates cute?? I thought so. We don't have a fire place, so this little fake one is all i've got.  I made these stockings our first christmas they turned out ehhhh ok.  Maybe in the near future i'll make new ones! Stay tuned!  Xoxo H

Here are a few little tricks to make your bathroom cute! Well at least in my opinion. Of course all thanks to pinterest!  Yes normally this is from the mouth wash pin.  But my husband sometimes uses mouthwash and I'm not a fan ...maybe one day.  Anyhow I think this looks wayyyy better than a huge lotion bottle and huge santizing bottle.  All I did was get these from the dollar store and cut the tips off a bit from the actually pumps from the lotion bottle and sanitizer bottle..and voila!  http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/8f/8e/2d/8f8e2da6ba6af9a4be6d5ca4b995a75a.jpg Next project was this little one.  Haha when we were little ones.  It's cute I have one in the bath tub like the first one but I couldnt find it.  These had to work instead... I still think they are cute! And this is how I seperated them....Still cute. Just a little way of how to spice up the bathroom...oh last one. My husband thought this was f...

Happy Veteran's Day to all those veteran's out there and their families.  It takes a tough individual to do what you do! And here are a few things I've found to do for 4th of July or for Veteran's Day! http://allrecipes.com/Cook/Photo.aspx?photoID=428300 This is the website with the instructions.... Found this delicious looking little piece too! http://www.partycity.com/content/patriotic+food+ideas.do My duplicates aren't the same exactly but they weren't too bad. The strawberries were a huge hit especially with the kiddo's! They arent as professional as the other ones but who cares they are gonna get eaten anyway...And as i'm not a fan of bananas and I already used strawberries so I went with pears and rasberries.  It worked for the time. Well that's it this time! Hope you enjoyed Until next time!

Well what man doesn't like beer?? I know my man does! I saw this awesome idea on pinterest of course and decided to mimic it. Mine didn't turn out as pretty of course but I was able to cover it up with all the other presents! BTW don't try carrying it all together it's HEAVY one tier at a time! But the husband loved it! And BOOM! Of course I didn't have enough Coors in the fridge so I improvised! He didn't seem to mind. Until next time! Stayed tuned!

So first project ever! I found this little guy on Pinterest! LOVE thought my husband could use one since we had just gotten a nice metal beer opener but could never figure out where to anchor it down to.  So any who, I made one on my own cause let's face it I'm broke.                              etsy.com                                     ^^^^^-----that's the link I got it from. ----->this is how I made it.... Little cheesy I know..but hey first pinterest project I ever did.  I got the wood backing and all the accessories from Hobby Lobby! If you've never been...don't bring your wallet the first time you will want to buy EVERYTHING...Surprisingly this little guy has made it through two moves still in tact sticker's and all! I painted the holder with metallic rust-o-leum paint. Screwed that on a...
