I did it!

I did it!!!!! I actually sat down and finally made something that I found on Pinterest!  That is a huge accomplishment.  Normally I spend so much time "pinning" things that I never actually get around to making anything.  This was such a hit and R loves playing it.  It is so fun to watch.  I even had to go back to the store later to buy even smaller bottles so that little sister P could have her own jet pack.  Hers is in the process of being made so I will post her pics tomorrow.  I love this idea and I love Pinterest for helping me feel like I am a creative mom.

another favorite

Totally love this Norwex hair turban!  I throw it on right out of the shower and then I am hands free to do my makeup, change the baby's diaper, get my son some breakfast without having to keep redoing my normal towell turban.  It is made from microfiber and has a button on the neck to keep it in place.  Love it!

Shower Cleaning

So if you are like me then you probably waste a fair amount of your day finding tips and projects on Pinterest.  I love that site and have a slight addiction problem to it.  Recently I found a link on Pinterest that showed how easy it was to clean your shower.  It said to use equal parts of heated vinegar and blue Dawn dishsoap and mix in a spray bottle.  The article said to let it sit on your shower/bathtub for 2 hours and then your bathroom would sparkle.  Well I was intrigued.  However, I had to try the challenge in a different way.  I don't like using chemicals in my home for a wide variety of reasons which is mostly why I got into Norwex.

I still wanted to try this but instead I used it with my Norwex dishwashing liquid.  It is super concentrated so instead of using 1 cup, I only used 1/4 cup.

The end result was great.  It totally cleaned my shower of all the yucky soap scum! After waiting the time I wiped it down with my Norwex Bathroom Scrub Mitt (heaven sent) and the results were fabulous.  I only left mine on about 15-20 minutes as I have ZERO patience.  Still it gave great results. I have some videos of the before and after posted on my Norwex Facebook Page if you are dying to check them out. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Jane-Musters-Norwex-Independent-Sales-Consultant/318302274864646

Anyway this was a great idea from Pinterest that I needed to tweak a little to keep my home chemical free.

New Blog

So here is another new blog for me.  As if I need another one.  This one will be different.  It will be a little bit random with whatever I feel like posting.  Probably it will mainly contains posts relating to home and children.  As if we need another blog doing that!  Ha ha!  So here I go................
