25 Days of a Crafty Christmas Day 6

Christmas Card Holder

Ok, I do NOT have a fireplace. :( Tragic, I KNOOOOW!!! So, so tragic.

So, since I do not have a fireplace, I do not have a mantel.

So, since I do not have a mantel I can't hang the Christmas cards I receive like garland off the Mantel.

*GASP* What is a girl to do?

Well, get CREATIVE that is what!

I have this picture in my living room.....

Yes, I AM aware that it is broken. :( It is my absolutely FAVORITE piece in my house. I will get it fixed one of these days.

But, for now....on with the show....

What you will need:

Picture from your wall

Wrapping Paper

Ribbon

Tape/Glue

Scissors

Directions:

Take picture off of wall

Place Picture back on wall

Tie Ribbon on Paper Clips

Place Clips on Ribbon that is on your Frame

Add Cards!

Yes, I know the paper is a little LOUD but, all the colors match my tree. :)

Strawberries and Cream Instant Oatmeal | Recipe

I don't know about you but, we go through oatmeal like that is the only thing to eat on this planet! Seriously a TON! My youngest would eat it for every meal and snack....every day....if I let her. Yes, the little packs can be cheap (if you can find a coupon and get them on sale) but it still adds up. I used things I already had on hand so there was no extra cost to make this. FREE is ALWAYS good! I tried before to make little packets to keep on hand but that was a complete fail. I have since reworked the recipe and am happy with the results. I decided to just keep the oatmeal in a glass container this time and scoop out what we need, when we need it. You can also make this into packets by just scooping the desired amount into zip-top bags. {Strawberries & Cream Instant Oatmeal} 12 Servings 6 Cups Quick Cook Oats 1 1/2 Cups Oat Powder 2 Cups Powdered Milk 1 - 1 1/2 Cup Sugar 1 Cup Freeze Dried Strawberries Directions f

Today I am posting at Mom It Forward!

Hey guys! I have some EXCITING news! Today I am posting over at Mom It Forward ! I have shared my Fiesta Chicken Tacos recipe, it is SO good! Go check it out! While you are there, check out all of my other posts I have shared there. The Fiesta Chicken Taco mix is GREAT on nachos as well! I also made a quesadilla with some of the mix last night and it was AMAZING! This is also a very frugal meal, the total cost for me was $2.67! Here is the breakdown: Leftover Chicken - Free Black Beans - $0.50 for 1 can Frozen Corn - $0.17 (it was on sale and I used coupons, it was $0.33/bag and I used half a bag) Tomatoes and Green Chilies - FREE (again, on sale and I had a coupon) Tortillas - $2 Total- $2.67! Now, if you had to buy all of that at regular price it still equals out to a very frugal meal. Enjoy!
