Sew a ruffle on the bottom of a pair of pants and you take them to a whole new level, add a bow…and well, you’ve really got something :). Aren’t they cute?! I thought of the idea for this jean upcycle about a year ago when I came across these super cute boots on Pinterest.

How To Knit A Bow Scarf
(UPDATE) Sorry to say that I don’t sell this scarf. I do hope by the end of the year I could make some more and sell them. I just don’t have the time in the next few months. I really appreciate all the lovely comments and emails I’ve received! I have always wanted to start knitting but always thought it was so confusing and very time consuming.
I always have my kid sister come over for Easter and we never really do much with our eggs other then dye a few with those cheap little dye kits from Target. This year I am going to go all out with the eggs! I have found a few cute tutorials online and I can't wait to try them. Onion Skin Easter Eggs
Easter Eggs!

Sometimes it’s the simplest projects that turn out best, wouldn’t you say? When I came across these Chocolate Chai Cup DIY instructions on Sprinkle Bakes , I knew I was looking at a total dinner party show stopper… talk about going out with a bang! Best of all, they are easy as pie & practically fool proof. My plan as of now: a girls’ night in with wine & dessert, starring these bowls as vessels to fill with ice cream scoops & an array of toppings. Be sure to hop over to Sprinkle Bakes for the full step-by-step instructions . <p style="text-align:right;color:#A8A8A8"></p>
headbands
I was walking through Target a few weeks ago and noticed this little knit fabric headband that was not just braided together…….but woven. I decided they were charging way too much for something that could be made with t-shirt scraps. And that means free.
Summer is starting to wind down a bit, with camp ending and VBS almost over, so I need to get my act together and find more kid crafts! Anybody have some good ideas??? This past week we had "dinosaur" week which consisted of walking around like dinosaurs, prancing play dinosaurs through play dough and lots of digging in the sandbox. of course, there was one little activity that topped all the rest and that would be the infamous dinosaur ICE EGGS! They are quite simple to make, and could be used in a variety of themed games/crafts. All you do is shove a little plastic toy into a balloon. Fill that puppy with water and toss it in the freezer.

Ice Cream Cones de tela
We are so excited to share this diy with you, if you are planning an ice cream party believe us these are just the sweetest things to let each child take home with them! Our amazing diy correspondent, Katie came up with this project for us and we just fell in love! We ended up hanging pink, peach and mint green ones from a white chandelier and the looked so cute and really added to the decor of the party! The little girls just adored them and were so excited when we let them have one! Most of them put them around their necks and pretended they were ice cream necklaces, it was so cute!

Hello all, Jack and I are heading to an ace festival next weekend in Oxfordshire {Wilderness Festival}, it's going to be amazing - set in woodland and with a swimming lake no less! It's festival of all the arts which is literally my dream festival. They've got yoga classes and astronomy sessions, poetry reading and amazing banquets, secret parties, and a spa as well as literally all of my favourite bands!
If ever there was a quintessential DIY toy it’s play dough! Parents and children have been happily cooking up this stuff at home for decades. Today our newest contributor Kaley is sharing her favorite play dough recipe using another kid classic: Jell-O (because it just wouldn’t be an MPMK post without some sort of twist). I think you’re going to love this recipe.
