My son loves to fly paper air planes, but I'm not very good at folding them. They just do a nose dive. Next time my boy asks me to fold a paper airplane, I'll be trying out the World's Best Paper Airplane technique from I Dig Pinterest.

 

 

 

 

SewsNBows made this cute Feathers & Dots Dress! I love the embellished back here - it's so cute for spring!!

 

 

 

These Paper Roses are just perfect for Spring. I'm terrible at trying to keep indoor plants alive, so I might just have to try this idea from Life a Little Brighter.

 

 

 

I only have one child, but he sure can be messy! He also loves chocolate ice cream. Not a good combination. I was just doing some stain removal to get some of his old clothes ready to sell and I think chocolate ice cream stains made up at least half of the stains I was trying to remove. I need this Laundry Stain Removal Guide hanging up in my laundry closet. Luckily, A Typical English Home included the removal process for chocolate!

 

Ombre Stained Dresser

  Ombre is quite a rage right now!   I've seen a lot of ombre painted dresses in different colors. They are beautiful.   This dresser from Sawdust and Emryos (guest posting at All Things Thrifty) is the first one I've seen in stain!   So unique and amazing!  What a transformation!
