Our Mission

We are three sisters who want to share how we "live within our means" but live well! We will show you how (with a little elbow grease) you can make any found object into a treasure, cook an inexpensive meal, or bring you inspiration to enrich your life. We grew up in a large family (8 kids) with a mother who was very crafty and creative! Though our lives (aka husbands) have taken us to live in separate states, we still enjoy sharing what we are up to with each other. Now we want to share with you! We hope you enjoy our blog and we also hope it will bring you inspiration and happiness!

Critter Blanket

My husband's aunt was visiting for Christmas, and she told me about a lady who was using old beanie babies to make these little "loveys" for babies. My daughter is obsessed with her "blankies", so I thought I would find the tutorial, and give it a try. I didn't realize I had the stripes going the wrong direction until I was uploading the pictures. I doubt my two year old cares, but it made me frustrated after all the work I put into it. After a few minutes of searching, I found this tutorial: Critter Blankets

I hand washed the beanie baby that I found at a thrift store, then when he was dry, I re stuffed him with new poly-fil.
