Line an Alligator Clip
Lining an alligator clip is super simple it only takes a minute or two and it makes your bow look so much better. Be careful because you will most likely get burned by the glue. After your finished make sure you remove all the glue strings. The best size ribbon to use to line the clip is 1/4in. The 3/8in will also work it is slightly bigger than the clip.

Homemade teething biscuits
When my daughters were teething they loved chomping on these teething biscuits. They are super easy to make and they taste good too!
What you need:
Bread
Applesauce (or any type of baby food)
Cinnamon
Directions:
Cut the crust off the bread.

Smush the bread I let my 4 year old
help with this part!
Spread the applesauce on the bread.
You just need a thin layer if you put
too much on it won't harden. I also sprinkled a little bit of cinnamon when I used applesauce.
Roll the bread up try to make it as
tight as you can. Put it in the
microwave for about 60-90 seconds.
If its still to soft you can put it back
in the microwave for a few more
seconds. It will harden more as it cools.

That's how she does it?
I am what some would call craft obsessed. I love crafting and I'll try to make anything once. I see so many awesome things that I want to make and guess what no how to guide. So I created this blog to not only show people the awesome crafty things they can make but tell them how to make them! I have two beautiful daughters and I love being able to take time to create something wonderful for them with my own hands. You've heard the phrase "Jack of all trades and master of none" that's me I dabble in just about everything. My favorite things are sewing, baking, making hair bows, crocheting, and wood working! I hope you all enjoy and find some things to make yourself. If you have any questions on anything let me know and I will answer to the best of my ability!
