Elmer's #GluenGlitter Pin It! Project #cbias

Monday is MG's 3rd birthday.  My girl is CRAZY about Dora so.....you guessed it!  We are having a Dora themed party.  I refuse to have the LOUD color Dora party and was SO excited I found this site through a quick search on Pinterest.  I had NO idea Dora could be so...so...so PRETTY!

I have been a busy bee all week trying to get everything made for the party.  I love doing homemade parties and having as few store bought items as possible.

One of my FAVORITE items I found searching Karolina's Dora party were these CUTE bottles she used for drinks.

Aren't those FABULOUS?!?!

I knew there was NO WAY I would be able to find bottles like that in my area and did not have time to order.  I decided to use glass jars instead and I am so happy I did!

I headed to Walmart to pick up the supplies I needed, to see my entire path to purchase check out my Google+ album.
 I decided to get an Elmer's CraftBond Spot Stamper....
I also picked up the Elmer's CraftBond Permanent Dot Runner.
 
Here is what you need for this project: 
Glass Jars
Elmer's CraftBod Spot Stamper
Elmer's CraftBond Dot Runner
Paper Doilies
Ribbon
Cut out of choice
Start by stamping the back of your doilies with the Spot Stamper.  I used one dot in the center.
Next, take your Dot Runner and run along the outer (lace) edge of your doilies.
Place doilies on jar.  I covered the brand letters with my doilies.
You will then wrap your ribbon around the jar.  I secured with the Dot Runner.
Now it is time to place your center cutout on.  I used the Dot Runner to do this as well.  I just ran it on the ribbon and put a few lines on the cutout itself.
You will want to press hard to make sure everything is well placed.
Didn't they turn out SO cute?!?!

I also wrapped a few paper cups for the little ones that can't handle glass yet.  I used the same process but folded the doilies in half.
I was SO excited about this #GluenGlitter project!

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

Granny's Flitters

I love my family!  There are so many things I love about each person and also about all of us as a whole.  One of the things I love about my family is we love traditions. Today I am going to share just one of the many traditions we have.....FLITTERS! To me when I think of comfort food, I think of Flitters.  It was a special morning to wake up to the delicious smell of flitters frying in the morning.  It is one smell that every time I smell I am brought right back to childhood and great memories. I am not really sure where the name "flitters" came from or if someone just made it up.  I can tell you how it got started though! My Great, Great Uncle Orville's mom (Grandma Cook) baked bread.  On the days she would make extra bread dough she would invite all of her grandkids over for a flitter night.  She would make her bread and then the extra dough she would roll out, cut into strips and fry up for the kids to enjoy.  That tradition was then passed to my
