Chocolate Chip Cookie Creams: Homemade:)

 A lady at my church makes these chocolate chip cookies,puts cream cheese icing in the middle, and makes a sandwich. They are SO good! So then Little Debbie must have copied her because now she has them:/ Little Debbie's take is awful!!

So I am going to give you my recipe for chocolate chip cookies made out of cake mix,and then I'll show you the finished product:)

 

You will need:

-One box of yellow cake mix

-1/2 cup of oil

-2 eggs

-1 pkg of semi-sweet chocolate chips

 

Mix cake mix,oil,eggs,and chocolate chips thoroughly. Scoop them as large as you want. You want pretty big ones for the cookie sandwich:)  Place them on a non-stick cookie sheet and put in the oven at 375. Cook about 15 minutes or until the sides are golden brown.

 This is the icing I used.

 Making the sandwich is the best part:p

Nope, sorry, eating it is the best part!

Ways to get organized-Part 1: DIY $5.00 makeup displays

 HI:D
So I have been trying to organize my room lately. I of course went straight to Pinterest! I found some really cute ideas! I got inspired (as always) and decided to get crafty. I didn't want to spend a lot of money so I headed to the dollar store to get all the things I needed to make these cute displays:)

 (Please excuse the picture quality)
I bought all of this at Dollar Tree. Four glass candle jars,a candle stick holder,and some colorful beads.

 I filled up the round glasses with the beads and stuck my brushes in it.....

 I hot glued on of my square glasses to the candle stick holder....

 I wanted one to be higher than the other;) Then I filled them with beads.

 I made the labels with a paper bag and my stamp kit.

Very simple and very cheap! This project only cost me $5.00 to make!
Have a great day!

Fabric Covered Letter Tutorial

 So I haven't done many craft tutorials on here as of late. Mainly because I've been too busy to do any crafting! I got an opportunity this past week to fix up this wooden letter I have had for a year now.(did I just admit that??) So anyways, I knew I wanted to paint it and cover it with fabric. That's precisely what I did.

 Before

 My supplies.....

 I mixed the colors to get this nice pastel blue color.

 Painted.

I chose some fabric that we had on hand that would bring out the color that I had painted the letter.

 I cut it out smaller than it was traced because I wanted to be able to see what I had painted.

 I used Elmer's Craft Bond Adhesive spray to attach the fabric to the letter. Then I sealed it with the Mod Podge spray.

I let it dry and tada! My initial! I think I will put it on my wall,but I am not quite sure yet;)

Random Stuff

These are just some of the random pictures I took the first week I had my camera. We had cinnamon rolls for breakfast,so I photographed them, and then I ate them. Three I'm afraid.

 My favorite winter sweater and necklace.

 My dad likes flowers. He planted these in our front flower bed;)

I got kind of crazy with my eyeshadow. I decided to try a leopard pattern. It turned out pretty good,but I didn't wear it out.;)
Have a great day!

Merry Christmas Photos!!!

Too early for Christmas photos?? Well, maybe but it can't hurt right?? I had to bribe my sister with candy,but she relented to let me use her as a model.;) I got some great props at the Dollar Tree and I just had to try them out!

 I was on top of the fence with my leg laid across it just to get this angle! I'm glad the nearest neighbor lives through the woods down in a hollow.!

 One of my favorites!

 (she was looking at the birds,and I told her to hold still;))

 I told her to be herself in her expressions,so she did in these two pictures;)

Love her! Thank you to my sister Hannah for being a very patient model.
