October 11, 2015 By Emily Gammon 2 Comments

Chris and I have been so excited about the fall foliage and making crafts with beautiful leaves.  We challenged each other to come up with a new project to top last year’s Nicole Duke’s Leaf Roses.  My project is a fall leaf candle holder using a canning jar, Mod Podge, a paintbrush, and leaves.

Salad in a Mason Jar

September 22, 2015 By Christina Gammon 3 Comments

I know you have seen the post about salads in a mason jar a thousand times already but this one is a little different. I tried the #Salads In A Jar the way others said to and no matter how many days they sat in the jars (1-6), they were still soggy. Even on day 1. I figured I better share how the salads in a jar worked best for me… let me know if you have other tips to make them even better.

Paper Lanterns

July 8, 2015 By Emily Gammon Leave a Comment

paper lanternsNew project!  Easy project!  Cheap project!  Very happy sister!

I had a visitor last week and wanted to have a backup plan in case of rainy weather.  I was scrolling through Pinterest – a favorite thing of mine to do – and saw DIY paper lanterns. It had all the criteria – easy and affordable! The project was a huge success for us and the possibility of designs is limitless! I think doing a bunch of balloon designs for an evening birthday bash would be awesome!  Wild explosions for the 4th of July! Dragonflies!  Animals!  ooooohhhh! [Read more…]

Vanilla Extract

October 29, 2014 By Emily Gammon 1 Comment

Homemade organic vanilla extractEveryone should have Homemade Vanilla Extract in their cupboard!  This is an easy, feel-good concoction.  You can choose what potency or proof you want your vanilla to be.  Bear in mind the alcohol cooks off during baking.

I purchase vanilla beans from a food co-op.  Do yourself a favor and get organic.  It’s just the right thing to do!  Slice two or three beans lengthwise.  Do not cut them in half.  The goal is to just open them so the alcohol can mingle with the inside of the beans.

Pickled Beets

October 23, 2014 By Emily Gammon Leave a Comment

Homemade Pickled BeetsThis pickled beets recipe, while not only fun to make, is also delicious! Yesterday I cleaned up the rest of my garden.  As soon as it’s tilled, it will officially be put to bed.  Ahh.  Most days I’m more tired than my garden and wish for a “long winter’s nap”. Of course, with lots of produce canned and frozen, my winter will be filled with delicious home-grown meals.  Having pickled beets at the ready is one of my favorite delicacies!! [Read more…]
