Laundry Room Re- Do

I do about 3 loads of wash every other day and if I have to be in my laundry room all the time it might as well make me smile.

I started with the curtain fabric. $4.00 at Joanne Fabric with a coupon.

Letters .15 each
Baskets on shelf $1.00 each at Target recovered with fabric I already had.
Shelf from GW .99
Candle (free)
Book that holds Fabric Softner Sheets 70% off at Joanne's $2.00
Laundry Basket $1.00 garage sale
Board and letters about $1.00

Here is the finished project!

So Bright and Fun!




It is cold here....

time for a little stoup and biscuits for dinner.

Ingredients: Italian mild sausage, celery, zucchini, diced fire roasted tomatoes, tomato sauce, cannellini beans, green beans, onion, beef broth and wine. Total cost: $7.50 minus the free wine from my dad's house. It makes it very cost effective per person and should freeze really well.

Here it is all put together. I got to use my new food processor and crock pot!! I am going to serve it with biscuits. Perfect dinner to watch Monday Night Football! Go Bears!
