Mother's Day Gift {{Slippers}}

So, I have a pattern for some slippers. I was so excited to make them. Got all my supplies, cut out the material and got to sewing. Two hours later (this is on ONE slipper) I am examining my finished product...and I realize that there is no way on earth that it will fit an adult foot. Maybe Cinderella, but not anyone else I know. I was SOOOOO bummed! The slippers were my plan for Mother's Day!

Plan B....Target slippers and add some embellishments.

Got some plain slippers from Target. Not really digging the fleece tassel thingys, but that's ok...they are coming off anyway!

Add a couple fabric flowers...one is a gathered flower and the other is a rose. Hot glued them on and we are calling it good. I think they are pretty cute myself. Think I will make some for me too!





Once again...mother's in my life....AVERT YOUR EYES!!!!!

Mother's Day Gift...you will LOVE it!

This is a gift ANYONE would love and it is fairly cheap to make. This is a fantastic lotion. My mother-in-law gave me this recipe and it is something that I make all the time. My skin LOVES it! You can make it and put in a pretty jar with some ribbon and a cute tag.

The ingredients are: a large 27 ounce bottle of Baby Lotion (I use Wal-Mart brand, it is cheaper, smells sooooo yummy and is just as good). One 2.5 oz tube of Vaseline (again, I used Wal-Mart) and 2 bottles of the Vitamin E Cream (Fruit of the Earth brand). The Vitamin E cream is $3.67 for 2 bottles and that is how it is sold.

Add all the ingredients into a large bowl. You will have to cut open the Baby Lotion jar to get all the lotion out. You would be amazed at how much hides in there.

Once it is all stirred up, put into the jars of our choice. Decorate and enjoy. I promise EVERYONE will love it and the smell is so good!
