Review: Doterras Bath Bomb Make n' Take recipe

-
Today I made homemade bathbombs using Doterras Bath Bomb Make n' Take recipe.
Pretty bath bombs- pic is of mine!

Soooooooo easy! Here are my notes:
1. Takes about 15 minutes total.
Hope my review helps! Seriously- give it a go!
     1b. If you don't know where to get citric acid- Wegmans, Whole Foods and Amazon have it!
2. Before you start, roll out some parchment paper- you will need it for the bombs to dry
3. If you are making "batches" in a mold- DONT double the recipe, make 2 different recipes. Once you put that witch hazel in, it gets hard fast. Mine got really hard about 2 minutes before I finished.
4. When putting in the molds, don't get sloppy- they really mold fast. Take a second to clean around the molds before you move to the next one. 
5. Did you know that the small baking soda orange boxes are 2 cups! They are! So don't measure it out or you will fill silly- dump that sucker in.
6. You can use ANY oil you want. I used Doterra's Serenity oils, as the bath bombs are for my kiddos, and anything that can help with the nighttime routine- I'll take it.
7. LAST WARNING: IF you use food coloring..... they clot for some reason. Like quickly and badly. Have a fork handy to mix it in well. On future ones I wonder if I should add the food coloring to the baking soda BEFORE the citric acid- if that works, let me know!

Lanyard Tutorial

So after all my sewing adventures, I have quite a bit of scrap material. What better use than to make into lanyards for work! Materials needed: Long bits of scrap material swivel hooks Cost: 1.40 per hook, scrap material= $1.40!!!! Time: 20 Minutes Getting started Cut strips to the following dimensions (1 strip = 1 lanyard) = 2" X 40" You can alter the length before you sew together if you so desire!  If you'd like wider lanyards than I made, you could always go 3" X 40". Next, you get to iron!!!   Left- unironed, right, ironed in half Fold your strip in half and iron. When you've ironed in half, the unfurl your strip a little bit and iron one side into the center fold... Left- ironing into the fold, right- ironed only in half  Then do the other side!   Ironing strips into fold  NOW you fold along the fold again, and Iron again! Now you'll basically have a strip of fabric with no raw edges about a quarter of the

Wagon Revamp

So I find myself truly BLESSED to have found an old, beaten up radio flyer wagon at a garage sale a few weeks back. Rusted and sad, the owner sold it to me for $5. I tried not to skip all the way home. But like I said, it was sad- rusty, chipped paint, etc. But all the hardware still looked awesome, so I had hope. Tools Wire Sander (0.96) Spray paint primer- $3 Spray paint color- $3 Vinyl stickers $3 Total revamp costs? 9.96  (I already had some spray paint "waterproofer," so that was free... it would cost about $3 though) First, I sanded down all the rusty parts, which were mostly on the inside, with a wire sander thingy I found at Home Depot. Wish I knew the name, but alas. Its looks like a sponge on one side, and is sandy on the other. Most of the screws were too rusted over, so I had to tape a lot. My husband was able to get the two side re-inforcements un-screwed, so that helped with a cleaner paint. Then, I power-sprayed it with my waterhose outside on the
