Pinterest Has Kept Me Sane

For the past three weeks (going on four) our house has been a messy disaster.  It is all due to our kitchen remodel/add-on (post to come at completion).  It has been difficult having our lives and schedules so disturbed.  I have not been sleeping well and feeling a little stressed.  To help me stay sane I have turned to pinterest.  I have found a lot of fun projects and have worked on a few to help me relax.  Here are a few things I have made...

These are a simple little treat I found.  There are 2 different kinds.  Both start with a pretzel bottom.  One has a melted hershey kiss with a M & M pushed in.  That one is called a belly button.  The other one (which we liked better) is a melted rolo candy with a walnut pushed in.  Super fast, easy, and yummy.

This worked out great because we had blueberries we needed to use and shredded zucchini.  It is a blueberry-zucchini bread.

 

Hair bows and flowers.  I used a variety of materials: felt, ribbon, lace, satin, organza, buttons, and rhinestones.

These are the satin and organza flowers.  They are my favorites.  I really don't think the picture does them justice.  It is nice because Ava actually likes to wear them in her hair.  It might help that she helped me pick out the colors.  Ava's favorite is the purple one.

This is something I made for Ava's room.
