Craft Complete: Crepe Paper Wreath **only cost $0.63!**

Little Miss's birthday is rapidly approaching! I have been keeping on busy on the weekend doing various crafts and decorations in preparation for her party. *Theme & more info to be revealed at the end of the month! It's a secret!* I will, however, share this super simple & inexpensive craft she and I did together last weekend - a wreath for the door using leftover crepe paper streamers from past parties.

Craft Complete: DIY No-Sew Bag (Revisited for Kids)

If you remember my previous post from a couple weeks ago, Craft Complete: No Sew DIY Tote Bag (Made from a T'Shirt!) I mentioned I'd be revisiting this to do a small bag for my daughter.

I wanted to share it with you!

Craft Complete: DIY Crayon Redo

What do you do with all the broken crayons your kids have? Throw them away, right?
Here's  simple and fun DIY Craft for upcycling all those broken crayons!

I started collecting my daughters and have a baggy full.
You'll also need a silicon muffin pan - any shape & size :) obviously the more fun the shapes, the better!

Craft Complete: Puzzle Playmat Floor Pieces Redo!

I wanted to make sure these turned out and were upholding before posting. (AND THEY ARE!)

My daughter has these Disney Princess puzzle playmat pieces on the floor of her room to help protect not only her ;) but also our original hardwood floors. After time, the pictures have begun to peel off making not exactly appeasing to the eye.

I decided to spray paint them to give them new life!

Lunch Made Easy: Bento Inspiration has begun...

My sister has gotten me hooked and completely interested in Bento lunches.
The art and the practicality! I need to build my supplies up... and now with the school year ending, I might as well wait until it begin again in the fall before I really splurge. :)
That being said, I plan on placing an order for a few things after the weekend. SO EXCITED!

Below I'm not only going to post her lunch from today, again utilizing the recycled strawberry container she now loves (LOL) but also a Bento inspired dinner I made for her the other night.
