  • I have a ton of small projects at that have been adding up so in todays videos I wanted to tackle some of the projects I’ve put on the back burner. Things like hanging pictures, making my own vanilla extract, trying some DIY blinds in a bedroom etc.
    I’m also going to show you a super simple yet delicious summer dessert recipe.
    Decluttering my home has made such a huge difference in my life, but getting these small projects done also makes a tremendous impact on me and my home.
    I hope you enjoy todays video and inspires you to tackle some projects around your house.

    I like these “little bit of everything” videos! I have a porcelain sink in my kitchen that I believe came with the house (built in 2020). This sink is so stained that it is mostly brown in the bottom. I ordered the pink stuff and I hope it works…I’ve tried everything! My daughter is having a party for July 4th and I’m going to make the cake (like you, I’ll buy the angel food cake pre-made). I am usually asked to bring rolls to family events because my cooking skills lack in just about every area 😂😂 but I think I can make this without any issue!

    I love miscellaneous tasks videos! Had one of those days recently. Such a sense of accomplishment to get all the little bits and bobs off the counter and where they really should be. The Amazon delivery was probably not a mistake. If you shop on Amazon a lot (which you do!) you shop a lot, you can sometimes get small freebies from a various places. They want you to review their product favourably. The hats look like a good idea for hiking etc. if you live in a place that's rather buggy in the summer.

    I think the second runner is perfect for the garage entry. The darker color is better for it being high traffic and more dirt coming in.

    Jodi I bought the cheaper paper blinds that stick like those at Walmart for 8$. They are very good quality for the money. I measured and cut with scissors. They have clips that you use to hold them up. More manual but easy and cheap. We got the black ones to use with our blinds for blackout to sleep later. When raised you never know there there.

If you want to or you could ...like on iron skillet clean the underside with stainless steel chain link ( they have them for cleaning iron skillets and such... mine has a tag with a red background and K on it)...IF you're willing to do that much work. If you do I suggest you get an iron sealing sealant and coat it with it when you're done.

    OMG this was such a great video...loved it! I had to laugh when you were making fresh vanilla extract because...my husband thought it would be great one year to make flavored vodka for his friends for gifts. Yep, great idea...we cut up the fresh fruit and placed it in vodka bottles and let it set for I don't know how long. Before gifting you should remove the fruit since it does not look the best...well he was eating the fruit since it smelled so good. That man was out - I mean slurring his words out after about 30 minutes. I had to help him walk to bed since he couldn't. We didn't realize until afterwards that the fruit was 100% alcohol...OMG talk about a good laugh! So if you ever decide to make flavored vodka...DON'T eat the fruit!

    I know what you mean about cleaning. After trying lots of systems I made 4 areas to deep clean once a month. It's working great after a year. My areas are 1) kitchen 2) bathroom/closets 3) living/dining 4) patio/basement. I don't deep clean the whole area each month. If the front closet is a mess I do it if the refrigerator needs some lovin' I do that. Just knowing that it's on the schedule I know I will get to it. Mostly you need to give yourself grace. Your kids keep you running and your a busy gal. Love both of the rugs.
