Faux Wood Floor Drop
Something you may not know about me, or maybe you can tell...I dabble in photography. I actually studied photography (a little bit) back in college, you know the REAL kind of photography re: film ,chemicals, and what not. I miss those days.
Anyway now that I have kids, digital photography is addicting! I stumbled across this awesome site a few weeks ago, Lemon Drop Stop, they make backdrops and floor drops for photographers. When I saw the faux wood floors, I just had to have one!
See, isn't it cool?
Now if photographing kids ain't your thang, here's a pic with one of my hobo bags for my Etsy shop...
So many possibilities I tell ya!

Snickerdoodle Muffin
I'm always baking snickerdoodle cookies for my family (they are a big hit here) and when I came across a snicker doodle muffin recipe, I had to try it! The recipe I found was missing something, so I adapted it to suit my tastes, and man does this make a good muffin, Enjoy!
Snickerdoodle Muffins
Ingredients:
1 & 1/2 cup flour
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup white sugar
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 eggs
1 & 1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup softened butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
Topping:
1 tbsp cinnamon
3/4 cup white sugar
Directions:
Cream together eggs, butter, sugars, vanilla, and milk.
In a separate bowl mix all dry ingredients together, flour, oats, baking powder and baking soda. Slowly add dry ingredients to creamed mixture, beat until everything is incorporated well.
Fill greased muffin cups 2/3 of the way full with batter. Mix the topping together 3/4 cup of sugar plus 1 tbsp of cinnamon, and sprinkle generously over muffin batter cups before baking.
Bake at 400 for 15 - 18 minutes.
Makes approx. 18 muffins
I made these in my Pampered Chef stoneware muffin pan, and they were delish!!

(Easter) Egg Shakers
I made these last year and forgot to post about it! My toddler was in Kindermusik last year and loved the little egg shakers they used in class. Instead of shelling out the big bucks for theirs, I made ten for under two bucks!
Found the eggs at Walmart, these were the only plastic eggs I found that didn't have little holes in the top or bottom of the egg, which is crucial to this project (you don't want any moisture to get in!)
Anyway, I filled the eggs with what I hand on hand: black beans, lentils, popcorn kernels, and rice. Then glued them shut with a nice strong craft glue like E6000. The rice and the popcorn kernels make the best sound! This is a great inexpensive project for you little music lover, and a year later they have held up well!

WIP Wednesday
I thought I would introduce a new little segment here on my Luv & Stitches blog. WIP (Work In Progress) Wednesday! I always seem to start these fun projects, but hardly ever get to finish them in a timely manner, now that I have to little ones to look after...sigh. So I figure if I post here, I can get my butt in gear and get some of these things finished! So I'll try to post my tribulations on Wednesdays, can't promise every Wednesday though! ;)
We bought this Ikea childrens Latt table back in September, the raw wood was just screaming for something to be put on it. So a few months later and lots of food, paint, and markers stains as well, I thought it was time to do something about that! Details on what I did to come, so stay tuned! Waiting for the weather to get better so I can finish the other chair and table...in progress!
