Homemade Disney World Mickey Mouse pretzels. This copycat recipe is just like the salty dough snack you have at your favorite theme park.

Mickey Mouse Pretzels

Copycat Disney World Mickey Mouse Pretzels

Since we left Florida in 2015, I realize how much I took advantage of Disney World. It was a set of theme parks I went to almost every summer when growing up. I never had huge earning to go, but when we did go it was a huge treat. I never understood how family or friends (from other states) found it such a big family vacation to go. After all, we could just hop in the car and be at the Disney gates in a mater of hours. Now that I live in DC, I realize I took this park for granted. I am a mom of five and I dream of the day I can take my entire family to the Magic Kingdom. I want them to experience Space Mountain, to get wet white going down a surprise drop in splash mountain, and to experience all the treats I had while growing up – like Mickey Mouse Pretzels.

Are you a fan of Mickey Mouse Pretzels? These beloved theme park snacks were found originally at California’s Disneyland but have not made it to parks in Florida including the Magic Kingdom,  Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, Disney Springs, and Disney’s water parks including Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach. If you don’t have one of these theme parks in your backyard, we are happy to share our easy, three-ingredient, Mickey Mouse Pretzels. These are perfect if you are hosting a Disney party, make sure to pair with this dessert Chocolate Covered Mickey OREOs.

This recipe makes four Mickey Pretzels.

Pringles Potato Chip Cookie Recipe

This potato chip cookie recipe incorporates the salty taste of chips and the sweet taste of butterscotch chips.  It’s a pretty simple recipe and the kids can help. They are going to love being able to crush the chips! As a bow, we used a cute mix of green threading and Jingle Bells – isn’t that so fun and festive! They offer a little jingle carol when handing them over to the receiver.

Go With Me Chair Black Friday Savings – Double Dipping Savings!

Go With Me Chair Black Friday Savings

This might be one of my favorite Black Friday week deals to share with you – the Baby Delight Go with Me Chair. I have an Amazon sale, a clipable coupon AND an exclusive coupon code for Frugal Coupon Living… more on that soon!

First, I have to tell you about my new favorite chair, the Baby Delight Go with Me Chair! The chair is comfortable for my boys. the chair has support as well as cushion. This chair is strong and it is evident the stitching is very well made. I love the bright colors. It doesn’t look like a fabric that fades easy and the chair comes in 7 awesome colors – orange, lime green, true red, pink, grey, blue and teal. The polyester fabric cleans up very easily – which is great for our current puree pouch baby food stage!

I love the 5-point removable harness. It gives me options for the different ages of all five kids. The younger boys are very stable and secure when they are buckled. As they grow, the straps can be adjusted to the size of the child or even removed all together.

We have used these chairs in the home by our breakfast table as moving the high chairs around the house is a big difficult (and annoying!) Not only can the be used in the home, they travel well for trips or for outdoor occasions.

One of my favorite features is that this chair goes from 3 months to 75 pounds. I don’t have to worry when my 68 pound girls sit down on the boys’ chairs. I know it will hold them and still be in great shape  for the younger boys when I need them to be held too!

Notice the different positions – in the photo above, we put our guys in all three stages.  Use with or without the tray.

Stage One

Sit and relax. Stage one allows your child to sit securely with a 5 point harness. This begins at three months even if your child is not sitting on their own yet. There are straps to secure their back to the back of the chair.

Stage Two

Stand and Play. As baby grows the seat can unvelcro to reveal two leg holes perfect for letting baby stand with support.  This is great for kids that are more active, using their feet, and ant activity. We are currently using this position and the sit and relax position for our 11 month old boys.

Stage Three

Sit and Play. We are using this for our two year old boy who is about 30 pounds. As he ages we can remove the 5 point harness. The girls sometimes take a quick seat when they chair becomes open (it isn’t often.) This stage can be used with our without the tray.

Product Highlights

  • Seats from baby (approx. 3 mos.) to 75 lb. child
  • Chair converts to three child growth stages: Sitting, Standing, and Big Kid
  • 5 point removeable harness keeps baby secure and comfortable
  • Includes a emoveable snack tray and a removeable sun canopy
  • Indoor/outdoor polyester fabric is resistant to fading, stains, and mold
  • Carry bag included
  • Dimensions: 24.5″ tall x 23″ wide x 22.75″ deep
  • Weight: 4.9 lbs

Indoor Outdoor Use

My most favorite think about this chair is the ease of use and the possibilities. It can be used as a soccer game (where it gets the most use for us), in the dinning room for dinner time, in front of the television for quick afternoon snacks, at the beach or on an adventure to grandmas and grandpas for the weekend.

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

My two year old is used to seeing us get the foldable chairs at our weekend soccer games and he often uses his hands to pull me to grass while he sits in my chair. (This totally defeats the purpose of me bringing a chair to the game!) Having his own chair has been a life saver. The twins are also outgrowing their patience in the stroller when they are not “strolling.” This provides an outdoor option that keeps them contained without me having to hold them.

The sun canopy is great for days where extra shade is needed. There also is a very nice carry all bag so we can carry all three chairs without issue. Each chair weights 4.9 lbs, so carrying three is no issue at all!

The Go With Me Chair Black Friday Savings – Double Dipping Coupons!

I have an exclusive Black Friday Savings for you! Keep in mind this Go with me Chair is going to last you about 8 years (all depending on the growth of your child) so the cost of this product is pretty incredible.

You likely have all the supplies needed for this upcycled egg carton craft. DIY Flower String Lights can be made in a few short hours and make adorable bedroom decor for a teen or dorm room.

DIY Flower String Lights Tutorial

DIY Flower String Lights

We have a fun craft for you. Best of all, you likely have all of these supplies in your home – Christmas Lights and an Egg Carton. Open up your Christmas box and grab a strand of Christmas lights. We used white lights, but colorful lights will be cute too. We used a green light strand, but a white strand will work as well. For your egg carton, you will want to use a cardboard cotton as plastic or Styrofoam carton will not paint well.  We chose to paint with one paint color but consider getting creative with your strand. You can add many colors to make a rainbow or use a darker color on the outside and a lighter color on the inside. Whatever your technique, this craft is easy, affordable and adorable – three adjectives I love to hear!

These lights can be placed teen bedroom, an outdoor enclosed patio, or even used in a college dorm room for accent lighting. However you use, be sure to share your ideas but adding your image to  our Pinterest Pin under “tried this!” We love to see your creativity too!

Feeling crafty? Don’t forget our Upcycled Christmas Lights.

Upcycled Egg Carton Craft

Supplies:


Instructions:

To begin, get your cardboard egg carton and cut down the center of the egg carton.

You will then want to cut each individual section/cup from the carton.

To form a petal, cut 4 upside down triangle shapes evenly spaced around each “cup”. Cut the sections that are sticking up into round petal shapes to form your flower.

Once your flowers are formed, add paint and water to the small bowl. We used a 50/50 ratio of paint to water. We used one color but this is where you can get creative with your own technique.

Paint each flower inside and out. Consider doing a darker color on the outside and lighter on the inside for more of an ombre look. Let each petal dry completely before moving on to your next step.

After your petals are dry, use an X-ACTO knife or a skewer to make a small hole in the center of each flower. (This step should be performed by an adult.)

Lastly, press the flowers onto the lights using the glue gun to secure each flower. For a stronger hold, you can use E600 craft glue.

Hang and Enjoy!

TIP: You can repeat this process to make as many flowers as you want to make a longer strand of lights.

You likely have all the supplies needed for this upcycled egg carton craft. DIY Flower String Lights can be made in a few short hours and look adorable lit up! Click to Tweet

Edible Christmas Gifts

Edible Christmas Gifts

We love DIY Christmas Gifts.  However, often waiting to the last minute for gifts puts me in a place of purchasing and often that purchase is something not from the heart. My last minute gifts become, something I like to call, “Shelf Sitters”. Shelf sitters are gifts that take up room and don’t have a reason for use.  I had a lot of these during my years of teaching elementary school.

One of the gifts I always appreciated, especially on busy winter school days, was something that filled my belly during the day. If I was feeling extra nice, those gifts made it home to share with my family.  We found the tastiest recipes, some tried and true, for your Edible Christmas Gifts.  Take a look at these gift ideas that do more than sit on a shelf!

Halloween Mason Jar Snow Globe

Halloween Mason Jar Snow Globe

We had so much fun with our DIY Hallwoeen Potion Bottles, that we wanted to share with you another creative craft for the October Season. Take a look at these DIY Halloween Mason Jar Snow Globes. By upcycling a few products, you likely have laying around these house, you can have this out of the box Halloween craft.

We had glue and small Halloween decor on hand and a few Mason Jars leftover from our Christmas Gifts last season.  At the Dollar store we picked up glitter and clear candle holders (plastic or glass is fine, grabbing a colored or mercury glass candle stick holder could be nice too!) We picked up Vegetable glycerin online.

Below our our step by step directions to make your DIY Halloween Snow Globes. You can step it up a notch. Consider spray painting your tops black. Add some Mod Podge and dip in glitter so your top shines too. Our decor was less spooky with a spider inside, but you could also add a skull or some bones for a creepier look!

Have fun and happy crafting.

Handmade Terracotta Place Settings for the Holiday Table

Handmade Terracotta Place Settings for your Christmas and Thanksgiving Tablescapes. This clay pot plant saucers craft is easy and add the cutest touch to the holiday table. 

Handmade Terracotta Place Settings for the Holidays

I love using alternative supplies to make cute crafts for the home. This time, I challenged myself to make something functional from the terracotta pot saucers that I had left over from spring. I’ve broken the pots themselves, so I was stuck wondering what to do with the leftover saucers!

But luckily, I thought of the perfect use for them – Handmade Terracotta Place Settings!

The 4-inch pot saucers that I have are perfect for place settings or even for coasters. If you’ll be using the pots as coasters, apply a clear waterproof sealer over the paint so it doesn’t chip.

These are so versatile, they can be used to make any holiday place setting more special! And since the pot saucers are free (I also saw them for sale at a hardware store for about 50 cents each), you can make them for every member of your family or friends list for every holiday!

Supplies:


Directions:

Clean the pot saucers with a damp cloth and let dry completely.

Stick the stickers onto the center of each saucer, using either each person’s name, cute sayings, or a person’s initials. Choose an option based on the size of your stencil stickers.

Paint over the entire pot saucer with acrylic paint. Let the paint dry. If your colors are light, you may need to apply a second or third coat. Wait until the paint is completely dry before moving to the next step.

Carefully peel off the stencil stickers. You may need to use a craft knife to get the stencils to come off the pot. If you have any bleed-through on the paint, cover any drips with a paint color that matches your saucer color.
