• Easter Goodies for Infants

  "What will the Easter bunny bring for the baby?" our grandaughter asked. Now, this is the same little girl who recently wrote a letter to the famous bunny asking if he was really a man dressed up in a costume. But, real or not, she wants to...

• Keeping It Simple - The Big Tote It

  You can never have too many bags. We use bags for everything from storing tiny toys to carrying our groceries in "green" bags. But last week my daughter decided she needed a huge bag. She teaches science two days a week at a local Christian...

• Keeping It Simple - Water Bottle Carriers From Recycled Jeans

  We have been out and about the last week or so with the grandkids in tow. They love the park, walks by the lake and riding bikes around the neighborhood. The weather has been great here (quite unusually so for March). Of course we have to take along snacks...

  Most of you know that one of my goals in 2009 was to use up as much of my fabric stash as possible and not purchase any new fabrics. Well, I did make a dent in those stacks of cotton but I am still working on using it up. And since another goal is to...

• Keeping It Simple - Child's Hot Water Bottle Cover

  Last year, my age-old hot water bottle gave out with a fatal leak. All my life I have used a hot water bottle. They are great for warming the bed, thawing icy toes and comforting those aches that just won't go away. They are especially nice for kids...

• Keeping It Simple – Reusable Snack Bags

  By now everyone knows that at our house we have been slowly going green. It not only helps the environment but our budget as well. We have been using a lot of plastic bags! So, we began by washing and reusing the freezer bags that held things that were...

• Designer Grocery Bags - Who'd have thought!

  For some time at our house we have been somewhat involved in recycling stuff. A while back I actually got into the habit of bringing my reusable bags shopping. But these totes that I have collected over the years (mostly at quilt and sewing shows) are...
