Creative Reading Corner Ideas

My girls are excellent readers. Growing up, this was not true of me. I hated to read. This lead me to the conclusion that they got some of this love through their environment over their genetics. I did a few things to “manipulate” good readers including creating an environment that embraced reading. From the time they were very young, I rarely said no buying them a book. I shopped wisely, but when a book was finished, I often purchased a new one. This was especially true when they began reading chapter books and series. This grew and grew our library to the point where most of our shelves are strewn with books. In fact, my son’s bedroom is a library. I love this as he is only two years old and falls asleep surrounded by books.

Buying Used Books

I have been able to shop frugally for my girls. Often, I purchase used books from Thrift Books or, my favorite, Better World Books. These books come in decent conditions. Sometimes they are a used library book or a book from a home. Either condition, doesn’t matter to me. It’s not the outside of the book, it’s the journey they go on inside.

When my girls were young and just beginning to read, I gave them the option to either go straight to sleep or to read in their bed another hour. I left a clock in their room and provided book lights if they chose the later. One of our favorite books to get started on reading was Bob Books. Currently, they are in 3rd and 5th grade and I still provide this same rule. Go to bed or read until (the time I provide.)

Creative Kids Reading Corner Ideas

Doing a few of these things – providing books, providing time, and providing a space – as created girls who love to read and are very good at reading. They are creative, young ladies, and I attribute it to these resources.

To provide your own enjoyable reading environment, take a look at some of these Creative Kids Reading Corner Ideas for the Home to create your very own young readers in the home. You might find some of these ideas in our Teen Bedroom Spaces.

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.

Use these place settings in your fall and winter tablescapes! I made red, green, and orange to work with both fall and winter celebrations. Use just red and green for Christmas, and red, green, and orange for the fall!

Weekend DIY Farmhouse Projects you can complete in a few hours. Creative Joanna Gaines inspired easy farmhouse decor that looks like it’s straight from episodes of Fixer Upper.

Weekend DIY Farmhouse Projects

Does anyone else have the problem of home procrastination? I love watching Fixer Upper shows, learning about different projects and crafts I can do from Pinterest, but when it comes to execution, I am the biggest procrastinator. It’s odd to me, because in life and in work, I am not a huge procrastinator… but for home decor projects – I am! A year ago, I spent quite a bit on Chalk Paint to Paint a table and chairs. Mind you, since the purchase I had bed rest and twin babies, but I still have yet to paint my table and chairs. Now that the twins are 6 months and starting solid using those chairs (with a booster high chair), I figure what’s the point of getting started now?

So this post had me in mind. The weekend warrior but the home project procrastinator. These DIY Farmhouse Projects are projects you can finish in a few hours or at most in a weekend’s time.

Homemade Soap Scum Remover

July 7, 2018 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: DIY, Facebook, Home Improvement, Instagram, Pinterest, Social Media 1 Comment

Do you love making your own cleaning supplies? This Homemade Soap Scum Remover requires only two ingredients! Details on Frugal Coupon Living.

Homemade Soap Scum Remover

Hey (waves), “it’s me Ashley with I hate to clean the house Anonymous. ” I wanted to share with you a pretty easy cleaning tip!

What is the one task you will always put off? For me, it is cleaning. I don’t mind the weekly grind of laundry or even the daily task of the dishes and loading/unloading the dishwasher, but when it comes to deep cleaning in the bathrooms, I really hate it! Because of this, I wanted to find a cleaner that was easy to prepare but did the job! I mean, really did the job!

This soap scum remover is pretty incredible. It uses white vinegar and Dawn (have I mentioned, these are two of my staple cleaning supplies!) I absolutely love Dawn Dish Soap. It is such a great de-greaser. I also love vinegar (it is one of my secret ingredients in laundry – see our Laundry Room Hacks and Tips!) With equal parts of both, you get a pretty incredible shower cleaner. You can see our pretty incredible before and after photos of a shower filled with soap scum and the results of our labor.

And if you want to make this task even easier, might I suggest some good music or a good podcast while you are scrubbing (or doing any household work)? If you need some suggestion on Podcasts, I love Focus on the Family Marriage Podcast and Jen Hatmaker Podcast. The marriage podcast as been great (and clearly affordable – it’s free) for my husband and I! Cheaper than counseling – haha! I also appreciate some good music. It really works to lighten my mood. I am most grateful for my Amazon Prime Membership, did you know it comes with music?

Enjoy (and happy listening!)

Supplies:

Blue Dawn Dish Soap
White Vinegar
Spatula
Scrub brush/sponge

Directions:

Add 1/4 cup White Vinegar to a glass measuring cup and heat for 60 seconds in the microwave.
Mix in 1/4 cup of Blue Dawn Dish Soap and mix.
Starting at the top of your shower, pour your mixture down your shower.
Lightly scrub with a scrub brush or sponge and let set for at least 1 hour.
Scrub your shower vigorously.
Any remaining scum, the stuff that’s been there for years and you haven’t been able to get rid of, use the end of a spatula to scrap upwards and the remaining scum will easily scrap off.
Rinse well and see your shower sparkle.

Take a look at these creative felt board quotes. Felt board ideas are both inspiring and funny.

Felt Board Quotes and Ideas

I caved and I finally picked up a felt board for our family! They are so cute and I felt it was a really fun way to express yourself. You can see our first message. As a mother of five, I felt it was very fitting “Langston Family. Party of 7. If you think our hands are full, you should see our hearts!” It works, right? Often at the store, I get the expression – “Wow, your hands are full!” I am aware, no need for anyone in my grocery aisles to remind me! But you know what!?! My hands might be full, but these kids also fill my hearts. This felt board is just a little way for me to get that off my chest!

We found some of the cutest, creative and even funny felt board quotes. From ideas about food (namely donuts) to ideas to inspire you to make a difference in the world, these quotes are sure to make your felt board full the rest of the year!

Enjoy.
