I Got My Feathers!

Early birthday present for my little Em.  2 inches off her hair and feathers!

She was so excited to finally get her feathers.  Now I have 1 little, 2 little, 3 little Indians (all three of my girls have them now.) LOL.  Funny how fast this fad finds my family...next it might be me getting a feather in my hair :). 

Oh and that wonderful crackled nail polish, which is also the hot thing these days at the "O" household. To bad I didn't think of it first. All those days I was refinishing my black hutch and got that crackle solution on my hands...never even thought of bottling it for nails...lol! Oh and those dang silly bands. Glad my girls are done with those now, however; we have over 1000 silly bands on a string necklace now...lol! 

What will be next?  Just wish I could think of it first.  Hmmmm.

My Lavender is in Full Bloom!

"Lemon, lavender and tea tree oil have an amazing ability to kill the germs that make us sick."

Kitchen and bath deodorizer/disinfectant

This works well and is safe to use to clean air, work areas, cupboards, bathroom fixtures, sinks, tiles, woodwork and carpets, etc. Since oil separates easily from water, always shake well and keep on shaking the bottle during use. Essential oils deodorize and clean the air instead of covering the odors.

 

Deodorizer/Disinfectant

2 drops rosemary oil

4 drops lemon oil

3 drops Eucalyptus globulus

4 drops lavender
1 quart water

Mix all ingredients, shake well and put in a spray bottle.

Cute Party Favor Idea = Ice Cream Cone Treat Idea

Neat idea that I found to make for Emilee's Birthday treat favors :

Thought this was such a cute idea for party favors.  I am going to actually form the rice crispy treats to also fit into the ice cream cone a little, so the top does not pop off.
