DIY Light Saber Napkins

I originally stumbled upon the idea for these cool light saber napkins on Pinterest, which lead me to a tutorial at Catch My Party. I loved the look of these and thought they would be a cute addition to my son's Lego Star Wars party. The tutorial at Catch My Party used a printable handle, I had black construction paper and silver sharpies on hand, which also worked great!

Memorial Day Food, Crafts and Decoration Ideas

Memorial weekend is here which means Summer has officially begun! Fire up the grill, mow the grass, plants some flowers and pull out the patio chairs because backyard BBQ season is open for business. These crafts, decorations and desserts are things that normal people (like me) can do this weekend. You do not have to be SUPER crafty to make these adorable, festive Memorial Day ideas. Go ahead and try one of them!!

Giant Ice Cream Sundae

Make this awe inspiring, GIANT ice cream sundae for a birthday, family reunion or church event! We did this for my son's 5th birthday party instead of a cake. For adults, have serving spoons available to dish ice cream into smaller bowls. For the kids at this party, we sectioned off areas, gave them all spoons and let them have at it!  Of course they were all mostly related and no one was showing symptoms of any sickness... yea, I understand if you find that absolutely disgusting.  But hey, it's a pretty much a kid's dream come true!

Baby Food Jar Lego Heads

These fun Lego head candy holders were used as favors at my son's 5th birthday party! I happened to have a bunch of empty baby food jars on-hand to use for crafting (seriously, you just never know when you'll need something like that!). I cleaned the jars and dried them really well, then I primed them with a spray primer that was specifically formulated for glass.

Does {ItWorks} Work?

YES, IT DOES!! Ok, I have had three kids.  The youngest is turning two this week.  I always hoped I wouldn't get stretch marks, but I did.  I never wanted to have love handles and a pooch, but I do.  I understand that eating right an exercise are an important part of my life, but I was very discouraged by the saggy skin around my belly button. If you have had kids and don't know what I'm talking about, then you are blessed. I am very happy for you.  But, for the rest of us...keep reading.
