Its not even winter yet....

And my DD has been sick since Monday with flu-like symptoms and I am starting to feel that way. I have heard that the sickness is going around but I dont have time to be sick! I plan on making candles all weekend as long as I am not sick.....

I decided that for Christmas this year I am going to make candles, bath salts, etc for family members and try to save some money. I also think that they will appreciate homemade gifts more. My moms side of the family has a $15 limit and its hard to find a gift that they will get good use out of with only $15. So that is my money saving strategy...see if it works.

I have many projects lined up around the house, new cabinets in the kitchen, new paint in the bathroom, kitchen and LR. My DH hung up my horseshoe coat rack last night and I will upload a pic of it soon! Hope everyone has a great Labor Day weekend!
