Oh What Green Does to Me!

Ok, not the best picture, but I wanted to remind you that I LOVE my new black and white kitchen, but I also LOVE green!

I just want to add bits and pieces of color into my

"black and white"

world that can easily make an exit when I feel like

something else!

With that said, I want to introduce you to this

BEAUTIFUL

 $5 tablecloth I found at a trade day

 Mother's Day Weekend!

It took one visit from one of my

VERY talented

blogging friends!

and then I had some cute little curtains that I can change out whenever I wish for the price of $5 for the tablecloth and $3.99 each for the two rods!

Bad lighting today,

the pics DO NOT do them justice!

They are precious!

Tip in the Kitchen

I have not peeled a raw potato in YEARS!

I boil them with the skin on until they are done!

Then I run cold water on them as I use my fingers to peel the skin right off.  (the water is because they are so hot) and they are perfect and ready to be mashed! 

Try it!  I promise you will like it!

Easy "Vase" Craft!

I found these glass bud vases

awhile back and never did anything with them! 

I then saw a simple idea in an All You magazine using 9 jars!

Well, I used my 6!

Take that, All You, with your fancy 9!

You'll Need:

*bud vases

*ribbon or string of choice

*scissors

*water

*flowers

Imagine my surprise when I opened them and realized the three were glued together!  YIPPEE!  Less work for me!

Just take your ribbon or string and tie it around all 6!  It takes a few minutes to get it just right.  I guess you could glue them all together but who wants to do that!

Then I cut some flowers right out of my own backyard garden!

I wanted to share this because I see this EASY craft being used in SO many different ways!

*baby shower centerpieces

*outdoor wedding

(dang it, why didn't I do this for my brother's!)

*Birthday parties

*Any entertaining or just family fun!
