Happy Halloween and NO Bones About It!! DIY Craft

This craft is simply cute and only takes a few items to make. My grandson loved it when I gave it to him, he said "It's HALLOWEEN?"  I gave it to him the day we made it, he's only 4 years old and has no concept of time. But that made me happy that he loved it. Thanks Cathy for suggesting this craft.

Here's what you will need:

• Marshmallows
• Mini Marshmallows
• White Chocolate Covered Pretzels
• Black Candy Melts
• Long Lollipop Sticks
• Toothpicks
• Clear Treat Bags
• String
• Hole Punch
• "No Bones About it" printable FREE to you our friends :)

Instructions:

Step 1: Gather all your supplies to make these as quick as possible.

Step 2: Push the marshmallow onto the end of one of your lollipop sticks. Make the skeleton face with a toothpick and the black candy wafers on the marshmallow. Allow it to dry fully before continuing. The candy typically dries pretty quickly.
Step 3: Take 5 pretzels that you will layer on the stick to create the bones. Then push a mini marshmallow on the stick under the bones to keep them from falling.
Step 4: Place the skeleton in the treat bag
Step 5: Punch a hole in the printable and use twine or string to attach the printable to the bag. VOILA! You are done.

Your friends and family or even trick-or-treaters will love this.

What brings you joy???

***Updated 4/29/23***

I've been thinking lately about what brings me joy. We all go through trials in our lives and I believe that during the struggle we can find a blessing and joy.

Here are a few things that bring me JOY:

• My Lord as Savior is the foremost JOY in my life. If it wasn't for him giving me life and victory to fight the good fight, I don't know where I'd be today. Thank you, Lord!!

• My husband Jay, is my greatest earthly joy. He makes me laugh at the dumbest things and he keeps me grounded. He's a wonderful father, grandfather, and provider and he's the love of my life. I'm glad he found me!
• 
• 
  
• My children are a blessing and a joy, no matter how old they are, they will always be my babies.
• 

• My grandchildren are just the icing on the cake with a big old JOY on top. I love them to the moon and back. What's the saying, "If I had known grandchildren were this much fun I would have had them first".
  
• My dog Baxter is a wonderful dog and brings great joy. You don't need therapy when you have a dog. They sit there and listen without judgment. Baxter is soft to the touch, fun to play with, and loves to be with me.
  
• Birdwatching has become therapeutic and a great joy. I feed the birds in my front yard and as I sit on the front porch watching and listening to them I can only think about God's mighty creation and that He not only made them for Himself but for our enjoyment.
  
• Chocolate is a great joy. I LOVE it!! It tastes so good and creamy. Oh to have a Snickers bar right about now.
  
• The beach is a source of joy. Sitting on the beach or on the deck of the beach house has this calming effect.  I could go to sleep in the hammock under the beach chouse. There is a sense of peace and joy that comes over me when watching and listening to the ocean waves.

• ***************************************************************************

Would you like to help us do reviews? Here's a link to our 

• wishlist on Amazon.com. We have items starting as low as $6. 

  

  ***************************************************************************

• Gardening has become fun for me. The joy it brings me to see my flowers grow and the harvesting of my veggies is indescribable.
  
  
  
• My husband bought me a water fountain for Mother’s Day a couple of years ago. It has a relaxing effect and sounds like a babbling brook in nature. Brings me JOY me every day. 

• Trying a new restaurant: You never know what’s out there as far as different food unless you try a new restaurant and that always brings me joy. I love food 🥘 
  
  
  
• Making a seafood boil: I have been making seafood boils for years now, especially on our beach trips. What brings me joy about this is my family loves it. Just the sounds and smiles on their faces bring me extreme joy.

I could go on and on about the joys in my life. How about you, what brings you joy? We'd love to know. Comment and share your joys!!

Keep it sassy!!

Hey Valentine "I Dig You" Craft Idea

We recently found a Valentine's craft to do for our grandkids and it looked like an easy one to create. The only problem we had was finding the little white sand shovels. Needless to say, we couldn't find them this time of year but we did find some inexpensive plastic shovels at Walmart for only $.94 that would work in a pinch.

Kelly made the tags that she is offering to YOU for free. Just click the pdf file link below and print them on card stock paper.

Supplies you will need:

• Small plastic shovel Walmart or Amazon ( if you keep this idea in mind for next year, grab some shovels at the Dollar Store when they are in season )
• Clear plastic goodie bags big enough for the shovel and treats.
• Ribbon 
• Assorted candies, treats
• I DIG YOU tag
  
  
  

Directions:

Simply just put the shovel in the bag, add the treats, tie on the tag with a ribbon, wire, or whatever you have on hand, and wrap a pretty bow. "VOILA" you have a simple yet lovely give to give to your sweetheart.

Check out our video on YouTube as we show you how we put them together.

Keep it sassy,

Kelly

Skittles Candy Coated Popcorn Recipe Review

***UPDATED 9/2/23***

 

I always like to try to make recipes with popcorn. I found this recipe that I thought would be fun and taste great.

The recipe was found here at Penny Pinchin Mom.

Skittles Candy Coated Popcorn

Ingredients:

4 cups of popcorn (plain, unsalted)

4 oz. butter or margarine

1/2 cup brown sugar

3/4 cup of Skittles® (use one flavor for each batch)

Waxed paper

Instructions or better yet what I did:

1. Separated candies by color.

2. Popped the popcorn and placed it in a bowl, set aside.

3. Put a sheet of waxed paper on the counter.

4. Melted butter with brown sugar on the stove on low heat. Stirred frequently to avoid scorching.

5. Pour in Skittles® candies. Stir until melted (you need to mash them down to help them dissolve).

6. Pour the hot candy mixture over the top of the popcorn & use a spatula to fold in the mixture until the popcorn is well covered. DO THIS QUICKLY!

7. Put the popcorn on waxed paper and spread thinly to allow it to cool.

My review:

I was expecting more flavor because candies by themselves have great flavor but when I mixed it with brown sugar and butter, it took some of that sour flavor away. The most time-consuming part was to separate the candy by color.

I don't think I will make this recipe again because of the flavor not being strong enough candy flavor. 

Thanks,

Cathy

DIY Valentine’s Day Centerpiece for under $10

Cathy made this DIY Valentine's Day Centerpiece for under $10 and you can too!

You can get these items at the Dollar Tree!

You will need...

• 2 pillar vases
• 2 LED tealight candles
• heart banner
• tiny conversation hearts
• 2 items as fillers

Here is how to make this project:  

1. Put the filler items inside vase and TRY to center.
2. Put candy around filler. Shaking helps the candy to go around the filler.
3. Place tealight on top. As you can see, there is candy dust from shaking. You want to take a dry paper towel to wipe off.
4. Turn the lights on when you need them!

Easy project and you can reuse the vases, lights and fillers for another holiday!
