Pinterest Wednesday: Spring Cocktails

It's been so crazy here that I completely spaced out on this week's Pinterest Tuesday! So I guess this week it's going to be Pinterest Wednesday!

With all the stress and preparation we've been doing lately it's got me craving a good ol' draaank.
Not to mention, the warm weather has got me thinking about the days of shorts, patios and beers. I'm not a huge drinker anymore, but I'm loving all these delicious looking cocktails!

Check out my list for 6 cocktail recipes you can't resist!

Funky Monkey | Raspberry Buck | Lavender Lemonade | Rosemary Berries | Passion Fruit Mojito | Pink Tequila

My favourite drink has to be the yummy and classic, Caesar! Spicy, savoury, sour (because of the pickle) and with all the garnishes it's like a snack. haha. So, what's your go to drink?

Pinterest Tuesday: mini green thumbs (gardening)

I think gardening can be such a peaceful way for someone to relieve stress. Not to mention how beautiful the end results can be. Now that Spring has arrived, it's a great time to start working on the garden!

Jordan and I both knew from the start that we wanted to teach Avairy about where foods came from and what's it like to grow it yourself. I literally get so giddy thinking about her getting muddy in her sun hat and gardening gloves! I couldn't resist myself from looking up tiny gardening equipment for her.

Gardening Bag | Pink Slip-ons | Paper Bag Shorts | Yellow Polka Dot Shirt | Pink Water Can | Polka Dot Gloves | Pink Trowel | Red Wheelbarrow

If that doesn't make you turn your children into green thumbs then hopefully today's Pinterest Tuesday will. Not only is this great way to bond, but it's also something they can be proud of. Especially when they see you making dinner with their vegetables.

Rainbow Garden | Stone Labels | Starter Pots | Growing Scraps | Garden Tic-Tac-Toe | Indoor Garden

Definitely check out the link for gardening with scraps. It'll change your life! You'll save a ton of money by growing these yourself and most of them can be done indoors. Imagine never having to buy garlic or lettuce again!  

Feel free to leave me some suggestions for next weeks Pinterest Tuesday!

Until then happy gardening!

Pinterest Tuesday: Easter Crafts

Since Easter is coming up this weekend, it would only be obvious to share some ideas for Easter crafts and decorations. I cannot wait until Avairy gets older (or at least walking) so I can do egg hunts and egg decorating with her. 

Here are 6 Easter crafts you can do for the home and with the kiddies.

easter print - egg message - bunny garland - bunny gift jars - easter/spring wreath - robin egg cupcakes

The message in the egg is such a cute idea that I'm gonna have to try it out for myself this weekend!

And of course I had to add some ideas that included Mini Eggs (or some like to call them Robin Eggs). I have my eye on this ginormous bag of Mini Eggs and it will only be bad news if I ever get my hands on them. Personally, you can give me some from the bottom of your purse and I would still happily eat them. Waste not, want not. haha.

6 months & pinterest tuesdays!

Happy 6 months today to my little pumpkin! I can't believe it's been 6 months since the day I gave birth to her and in just a blink of an eye she'll be turning 1 years old.

With each month she gets older, the more fun she gets. I can see her personality coming out more and more everyday. She definitely has her dad's looks, but you can't deny that she has my loud personality! She'll be sitting in her high chair and all of a sudden you'll hear her scream the loudest scream followed by the most exaggerated laugh. For no reason at all!

It'll be great to look back at this, 6 months from now and see how much she's grown and what new things she'll be into.

Also, I wanted to introduce a new blog series for Tuesdays where I'll share with you some cool ideas I've found on Pinterest. For those of you who haven't heard of Pinterest, it's just a website that has a huge collection of ideas people have shared. It can be about things like cars, babies, weddings etc. Definitely check it out, but be warned, it's highly addicting!

So, since today is Tuesday and happens to be Avairy's 6 month birthday, I'm going to share 6 creative inspirations for a DIY children's birthday.

paper lanterns | confetti pancakes | paper candle cupcakes | ice cream stand | bunting banner | tissue numbers

I'm loving the felt bunting tutorial for high chairs! I'll definitely have to do that when Avairy turns one. As well as the confetti pancakes for when she gets a little bit older. They're all really simple and easy ideas that you can make for any occasion.

Let me know if there are any other topics you want me to gather up some ideas for in the upcoming series!
