Halloween Gift Ideas for Teachers

A couple years ago, I made these cute little Halloween treats for my co-workers. Times have changed now that we have twin 15-month old girls...basically we have no time for anything besides them. I'm totally ok with that so I'm not complaining! This year, I decided to make their daycare teachers some cute gifts using free printables from two amazing blogs. I had about 10 minutes of free time while the girls were playing one evening so I was glad these didn't take long!

First, I made a jar of "Bugs and Kisses" - here's the printable for them. So cute!! All you need is 2 jars, ribbon, Hershey Kisses, and plastic spiders. And of course, the cute Bugs and Kisses printable. I may or may not have snuck in a kiss or two...or five.

Then I made these fun "Germs Are Scary" gifts. I love how they turned out - and so easy! You can find the printable on eighteen25.com and it's also FREE!

These would make perfect gifts for teachers, grandparents, bosses, or co-workers!

Nail Files and a Giveaway

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!! I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained . :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used. The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

A Batman Wedding and a $9 Wedding Dress

I was on this blog today and she was talking about how women spend so much money on wedding dresses. It reminded me of my wedding and then I realized I've never blogged about it!!! It's already been a year and half and I still haven't even scrapbooked it!!! Where does the time go? Ok...to the dress. I knew exactly what I wanted. I wanted it to be short, satin, and a "pick-up" style dress. I looked around at David's Bridal and other stores but I just couldn't see spending more than $100 on my dress. (I've been married before and had the big, fancy wedding - and we see how well that worked out!!) So this time, I wanted a small wedding and didn't want to spend much. I walked into Ross one day looking for something else and decided to walk through the dresses to look for a dress for my sis, the MOH. It was like the clouds opened up and the angels were singing and the sun beamed down on this dress. You can't really tell fr...
