Simple and Cheap: Valentine's Day Teacher Gift

I always looking for cute a creative ways to give gifts or theme gift ideas. I came across a cute plastic medium size sundae bowl...and then I thought how cute would it be too fill this up with sweet little small girly things? I am not sure what his teacher is into, but I know for sure everyone loves a cute thoughtful gift.

So it started with the cute pink sundae bowl...then I added a few nail polishes. I picked up "Pure Ice" @ 1.97 each, I let. My son pick the colors- "Flirt Alert" (the pink) & Scream (teal color). I also went by the travel section and grabbed a hand lotion @ 97 cents and St Ives Apricot Scrub @ .97 cents. I figured she needed some lip balm so I grabbed the "Marvelling" Baby Lips in color Gleaming Coral. I believe that was $2.98...then I knew she needed a few more things to finish it off so I topped it off with a pack of gum and a "S" initial key chain. Since her first name starts with a S I figured why not... All together I belive it came out to be 13.00. Not including the tissue paper, which I already had at home!! So Next time you need an idea for a teacher gift. Just grab a few girly things toss it in a cute sundae bowl. Then BAM! INSTANT cute Teacher Gift, or any gift for anyone!

DIY Coffee Creamer.

So recently I was surfing Pinterest when I came across this DIY coffee creamer. I thought hell I could do that while adding my own twist to it! 
All you need is milk (or whatever dairy you drink; silk, almond milk or whatever you choose)
A can of eagle brand milk
And a masonjar or reuse a juice bottle and that's it! Just two ingredients!

So what you do is measure out two cups of milk (or any other dairy milk product) pour those two cups into bottle or mason jar and add the eagle brand milk then shake until it's all mixed. You can also add vanilla, chocolate syrup, hazelnut flavor or whatever else you can come up with! I just used the milk and the sweetened milk. Then I add Cinnamon and a little honey to mine and BAM! You have yourself you own DIY creamer! Its cheap and you usually have all this on hand in your pantry or fridge!

I think it is way better then the store bought and no additives! Even better.

So go into that kitchen and make you some creamer and coffee and enjoy the rest of the day!!

Operation DIY

Yeah, its a boring day today, yesterday was a crazy day.
 
Slayde did awesome at his shots yesterday, didn't even cry. Such a brave boy!
 
Now, I am going to share with you some of the pins I will do, make or try, the remaining of October.
 
 
 
 
Bite Size Apple Pies: Crescent Rolls, butter, apple slices, cinnamon, and sugar.

These little apple pies.
so easy and quick
- crescent rolls
- brown sugar
- sliced apples
PERFECT and easy!


DIY Gold Glitter Polka Dot Sweater. Would use this for bags, too.

I have been on a personal search for the right polka dot sweater, now I can make my OWN without running into someone who already has it!! So excited to make this one!



A sharpie (any color) + A porcelain dish(You can even use super cheap mugs from the dollar store!)  Just draw and bake it for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Allow them to cool completely before washing or using.

DIY Coffee Mugs! I love finding cool new coffee mugs when I go to the thrift stores. This is a perfect way to customize your very own one of a kind mug!


for necklaces
This DIY right here was one of the first things I EVER pinned. I have a frame just like this needing to be used! I Have enough jewelry to fill this up, so therefore I need to get it made and fill'er up!!

So do you think I will get this DIY's done before this month is up?
We'll see, I'll be sure to let you know when November starts.


Wish me luck

Amy

Also on another note,
Anyone watch

Well i DID, and it was way intense,
I didn't realize how much tension there was
between Lisa and Adrienne (my personal fav)
But, damn it gonna blow up on Part 2 I'm afraid.
Also, with Andy Cohen, he is full force with those questions.

AND Finally Kim gets the much help she needed,
we all know she was a basket case.
LIKE SERIOUSLY...ONE EYED WILLIE HERE!!
Oh and i must note i LOVED what Adrienne wore
Adrienne Maloof
isn't that GORG? love those colors and ombre style going on..



ALSO.
I watch Archer,   it comes on Thursday 9:00 (which i love this cartoon),
its about a Hot Dark Headed Cartoon (lol) who is with the

International Secret Intelligence Service (ISIS)
He is selfish, seductive, funny, and a smartass
