Friday DIY Roundup #40

Friday, November 6, 2015

Happy Friday, guys! This post is a tiny bit late because I have the day off so I thought I would spend it in bed watching Netflix and YouTube.... Let's just say that Jenna Marbles needs to make more videos because there's a *chance* that I watched almost every single one of them. I also practiced Spanish. And finished an episode of Ghost Adventures. And ate a cowboy burger that I loved (!!). And worked on my scarf. And rolled on top of a cat causing her to cut my foot open with some claws that I really should clip later.... Basically, I love my days off.

5 DIY Thanksgiving Decor Part 1

Thursday, November 5, 2015

There's only 21 days left until Thanksgiving (the yummiest time of the year!), so I thought that this year if someone is hosting Thanksgiving dinner, they must have to clean their house- that is, unless it's already clean..... But who keeps their house clean all year round??? Instead of cleaning the house, why not just make some snazzy decorations to cover up that mess? Or you can do both, but that's a little too much effort- I would just rather have the kids make the decor and someone else clean the house while mum & dad make dinner. I'm getting too in depth here- let's get to the decor~

A few weeks ago, I gave my boys Asher and Zephan a mission to find as many perfect acorns with caps intact as they could possibly find. It gave them something to do and it gave me some beautiful natur: 1. How to Paint Acorns (as shown in photo) by Home Stories A to Z

2. Fall Candle Centerpiece by That's What Che Said

3. Fall Mason Jar Vases by Anything & Everything

4. DIY Gobble Gobble Gobble Sign by Hometalk

5. Thanksgiving Burlap & Glitter Placecards by Typically Simple

I'm sure you've noticed that at the top it says PART 1! Yep, that means I'm gonna write another one pretty soon! And I can't wait because this was really fun to look for all the cute DIYs and such- and to think I have much more to share. See you tomorrow, for the DIY roundup!

Wednesday, November 4, 2015

Wow, I really haven't done one of these in a while. And that's pretty sad considering they're one of my favorite posts here on this blog. I originally had something else planned, but since that didn't work out, and it's Wednesday (the day I usually write these posts on), I decided a recipe roundup would work out better- I'm in the mood for food and I was already browsing recipes on Pinterest last night anyway. Let's get to it~

7 DIY Soda Stream Flavors for this Fall

Tuesday, November 3, 2015

Even though most people love to drink soda mostly in the summer time to cool off, I also like it in the Fall- which means that my Soda Stream is going to get a lot of use. Actually, I love soda all year round, so it get's a lot of use anyway. But I bet a lot of you don't want to actually go out and buy (or order online, in my case) those syrups that are filled with all the bad stuff and can only result in 2 things- cavities and a sugar high. So I decided to collect a few yummy DIY syrups that you can make at home~

Homemade Root Beer Syrup for the rootin-est, tootin-est root beer you'll ever drink! Big thanks to @HankShaw: 1. Root Beer Syrup (as shown in photo) by Foodie with Family

2. Fruit and Herb Flavored Sparkling Water by The Yummy Life

3. Blueberry Lime Soda by The Vegetarianventures

4. Homemade Orange Soda by Simple Bites

5. DIY Key Lime Syrup by Former Chef

6. Make Your Own Cola Syrup by NYT Cooking

7. Homemade Ginger Ale by Epicurious

These all look so yummy, especially #5- I've only had key lime soda once, but it was so good, and a lot more different from lemon-lime soda than I thought it would taste. Maybe it'll be even better if I make it myself!
