Happy Friday, lovelies! I hope you've all had a fabulous week and are ready for the weekend. We're supposed to get upwards of a foot of snow tomorrow in Denver, so I'm planning on doing some early spring cleaning, and maybe some crafting too. Now this is a great project to tackle this weekend; best thing is, it only takes a few minutes yet saves you hundreds of dollars a year. No joke. I'm talking about the holes in your kids (or yours!) jeans. I spend $15-20 a pair, times 5 pairs each kid, and within a month or two I've got to throw them out. Such a waste of money, especially as a single mom with two kids! One day it occurred to me I'd only need to sacrifice the outgrown pairs I'd ordinarily throw away and could save the rest of the jeans. Did I mention with no sewing?! In the year I've been doing this, I no longer have to replace worn out jeans; I only buy new ones when they've outgrown their old! {How to after the jump}

DIY Glittered Pumpkins
Hello lovelies! I hope you're all getting in the Halloween spirit! I was recently sent some goodies from Aleene's Glue and Adhesives and was most excited to try the new Tacky Dotter (post to come soon, stay tuned!) as well as the Tacky Spray! I've been a long time fan of the original Tacky Glue and Fabric Fusion and have used those in several projects before. Here's what I got: {More after the break}
