Easie Peasie: Homemade finger paints…

Found this online and thought it was just plain neato! I hope someone out there can find a use for this!

Easie Peasie: Homemade finger paints…: Maybe it’s because I love a brand new box of crayons…or any new art supply for that ...

Personalized Product Spiral Notebooks

So as I was searching through blogs for some new crafting ideas, I came across this adorable idea from www.theidearoom.net How cute are these little notepads! Not only are they an adorable way to dress up any old notebook, but it is also a great way to recycle something you may have other wise thrown away!

To see what the notepads look like and how to make them copy and paste the url below into your address bar (for some reason I can't get links to show up /cry) :D

Alrighty I am finally starting to get into Autumn decor mode. I went ahead and started with a brand new Fall themed blog layout :D. I adore autumn's rich and bold colors! I can't wait to see more and more of them around my home!

Kindle

Straight off of the the www.bzzagent.com campaign page:

"Kindle

The Kindle 3 is ingeniously designed to be everything the iPad will never be: small, light and inexpensive… Now, the Kindle is almost ridiculously lightweight; at 8.5 ounces, it’s a third the weight of the iPad.




And with a wi-fi connection you’re just seconds away from close to a million books. It’s like having access to an entire library from the comforts of your couch. So what book are you going to read?"

Wow! I would so love to get in on this one! I have been passionate about reading since before I could even grasp my first book. My parents read to me every night, and once I could form words and sentences all myself...well I have always had a book handy. As of now I have a collection of over 400 books that I love and cherish. My only problem is space! At this point I know I need to invest in some sort of e-reader (Mother Nature must hate me for killing her trees lol). When I heard about this campaign I could already feel the tension and excitement of wanting to get in this one. Since I know we have to prove to the site why we deserve a kindle I thought I would throw together a quick list :D

1. I have been passionate about reading since...does forever count as an answer?

2. My poor room is lacking wall/shelf/table/floor/box space! I could really use some digital storage.

3. Help me be friends with Mother Nature...Help me stop destroying so many trees every week with the purchase of paperback and hardcover books! lol

4. I just love that Bzzagent has enabled me to learn more and more about new products every week. I would just love to be a part of the users that will be give this wonderful chance to review such a fantastic product.


So with that, My name is Mary Miller and I have been a bzzagent for several years. Do you want to learn more about new products and help companies by reviewing them and sharing with friends? Check out www.bzzagent.com to learn more!

Thank you Living Locurto!

I love reading my craft newsletters! While reading a newsletter provided by Living Locurto, I stumbled across a really cute craft idea! The site offers a step by step tutorial on how to make the cutest cardboard rings. I am always looking for cheap ways to make cute jewelry so I went ahead and thought I would give it a try! While I didn't totally follow the guide (I went ahead and made a few tweaks to my rings) I get a very similar product! Rather than use the duct tape (sadly I don't have any decorated tape at the moment :( ) I used the spare ribbon I had to cover the cardboard rings. They came out too cute and I loved that I could change up the colors and decor! They were super fun and EASY to make :D




Materials I used:

Cardboard toilet paper tubes cut in strips for the base

Ribbon

Glue

Small little silk roses

You can find the step by step guide to making your own rings here:

about.me



As a bzzagent, I am always learning about new products, websites, and programs. Just recently I learned about about.me. It is a wonderful site where you are able to not only create a new online profile, but it also enables you to link all of your other programs in one place. All of your online content and profiles can be accessible from your unique about.me splash page. Take a minute to create your personal splash page and be on your way to building a single online identity. Be it for personal use, or to create a professional on-line profile about.me will allow you to take all your scattered online profiles (like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn) and put them in one easy place.
