Easy Microwave S'mores

This project is not really fashionable but it tastes good! This recipe is good if you don't want to make them because there are to many bugs outside, you don't have a barbeque, or you don't feel like making a bonfire! You can always change this recipe if you don't have some of the ingredients. (Example: you have graham crackers but not digestives) 

To make easy s'mores you will need:

Chocolate Chips

Marshmallows (big or small)

Digestive Cookies (or graham crackers)

Plate

Microwave

Freezer

1. Put 2 cookies on you plate flat side up

2. Place a large marshmallow on one or you can use about 10 small ones.

3. Place about 10 chocolate chips on the other cookie.

4. Put it in the microwave for about thirty seconds (or until your marshmallow puffs up) and watch in amazement as your marshmallow turns from this,

to this!

5. Put the chocolate side on the marshmallow side and don't make all the marshmallow go out the sides.

6. Put it in the freezer for one minute or two minutes.

7. Take your s'more out of the freezer cut it in half with a butter knife if you like and eat your s'more!

I like this recipe and it doesn't take very long just make sure you wash your hands after because these are really sticky! ~~Ponytails

Edit: I was reading Stand in the Wind By Jean Little and these girls were having a camp-out and they made s'mores and spread peanut butter on them you can try that by spreading peanut butter on one of the cookies and sticking the chocolate chips to that side.

Terrific Thrifty Thursday #6

Welcome to the 6th edition of Terrific Thrifty Thursday. First up is this idea for bowties. I picked this project because it is a good tutorial for making bows. I could see these as headbands with bows on the sides!

Next is this idea for a jewelry box with earring slots! I like this idea and you also find these kinds of boxes at Michael's and their flyer usually has a 40% off coupon so it won't cost much! I have one of these little boxes so maybe I will try it!

Tip: Skirts

Hello!

I am going to be having a few different tips and this is the first one. Are you having trouble making your skirts stay on their hangers? I thought of this and it is just so easy! Use three clothes pins! Maybe some people already do this but I always only used two and my skirts were always falling off their hangers! My skirts don't fall off their hangers very much anymore!

Wire Necklace!

Hello!

I was looking at a Mad Skills Link Party at Mad in Crafts and saw that there was this wire necklace. It is really easy to make and if you have the supplies it can cost you nothing! It looks like it would be a nice present for someone who likes necklaces and wants something different from those necklaces from the store! I think I'm going to have to try this sometime!

Jacket Makeover and Pink Circle Scarf

Hello!

This week was my little sister's birthday and I decided that I would give her a couple pieces of clothing. Not from the store! It was much more fun to make them and my little sister had always admired my blue circle scarf. Another thing she had always liked was this navy blue fabric jacket not made out of jean but in a jean jacket style.

   I made her a circle scarf out of a pink shirt I got from Michael's when the t-shirts were on sale and I gave her the jacket but I made some changes to it. I brought out my Crayola fabric markers and cut a star from some fabric and using a template. Those Crayola fabric markers are great and I only payed about a dollar at a yard sale for them! I thought of a few designs and settled on a "I Love Horses" design because she loves horses. I drew it and then ironed it to set the design.

   Then I had to sew on the patch. I thought at first that I would sew it on the sewing machine but my Mom thought that it would be better if I sewed it by hand. I decided that I would put it on the pocket and I sewed it on. I had to kind of go in the pocket and then out because I wanted the pocket to be able to open.

   That's was all I did besides clean the jacket first! My little sister really likes her scarf and jacket and I see her wear them all the time. She actually got a complement on the patch today. I love how the pink circle scarf turned out!

Finished Shorts (Clothes Design Class)

   Hello! I finished the pair of shorts I talked about and here are the pictures. I cut the pair of jeans using a measuring tape to measure how long I wanted and a binder so I could get the line straight. Then I used Crayola fabric markers to make designs around the pockets and used an iron like the package says to set the designs. I made a sash and put dots on it and ironed that too. Then I used magenta thread and a straight stitch around the bottoms of the shorts so they would only fray up to the stitch. That was it! What do you think?

Terrific Thrifty Thursday #5

Hello!

This is this week's edition of Terrific Thrifty Thursday! First up is this beach bag made out of two dish towels(new ones), two belts, a little bit of ribbon for decorations, and a sewing machine. You can find belts and dish towels at the dollar store.

Next is this idea for shoelace bracelets! You can find lots of different patterned shoelaces at the dollar store. I think flowered shoelaces with rhinestone centers would be really cute!
