I’m loving all the great ideas on pinterest. Let me share my latest favorites with you!
I downloaded “The Christ Book” off of Sew Dang Cute. She put together scriptures, songs and pictures that you can read every night. It takes you from the beginning through Jesus being a child. I was excited when I found this. I don’t like all Christmas stories that claim to be about “the true meaning of Christmas” when really they are about a certain aspect of Christ-like qualities. Does that make sense? The true meaning of Christmas is Christ’s birth and that’s exactly what this book is. Doctrine straight out of the scriptures and the illustrations are from the Primary packets. It doesn’t get more kosher than that. I’m excited to use this in December.
A picture is worth a thousand words. All it is is a cereal container being used as a garbage can in the car. We went on a road trip last week and this thing was Super-duper handy! I’m glad I saw this before we went on our trip or there would have been tissues and candy wrappers all over the place. Big thumbs up to whoever came up with this one!
This last one is a big thumbs down. It’s a tub scrub recipe from Martha Stewart. You take baking soda, an essential oil (I used peppermint) and liquid soap and mix them together to make a paste. Then you scrub your tub with it and it supposedly magically comes clean. Not. I scrubbed and scrubbed and it didn’t work nearly as good as Soft Scrub. Sorry Martha Stewart, you lose. However, my bathroom did smell pepperminty fresh.
I have soo many fun ideas pinned – it almost gives me anxiety because I want to do them all. Soo many great ideas, so little time. 🙂
Martha’s trick didn’t work on my tub either. It doesn’t help that the tub is from the 70’s and was filthy when we moved in.
