<i>Recover of chair cushions</i></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've had this chair for about five years. Before that, my cousin had it for about three. And before that, my aunt had it. I love hand-me-downs. I love things with stories. I don't particularly care to remember stories involving animal hair, drunken sickness or chocolatey hands of children. By recovering the cushions, I've been able to keep my beloved hand-me-down chair and use it as more than a substitute for a dog bed.</div>

I am very particular about how things are organized. I have all of my books, CDs, and DVDs alphabetized. All of my clothes are organized by color, and within color sections, by sleeve length. Even my underwear drawer is organized by type and color. It's that serious.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My husband and I have extensively discussed what to do about DVD storage once we move. It always ends with him wanting to get rid of all of the cases to save space, and with me not wanting to let go. When I found <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/327636941611151586/">this Pin</a>, something in me changed. <a href="http://unclutteredlifestyle.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2012-03-04T18:12:00-08:00&max-results=3&start=18&by-date=false">This woman's blog </a>is wonderful. I'll soon be purchasing the fabric to make this happen:</div>

I haven't made much progress to this point. So far I have <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000KMR2YK/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1">DVD sleeves</a> and binders purchased, which I thought would be much more expensive (I found them on clearance for $2.50 apiece!).

Our binders will be categorized by letter. While I like the idea of genre separation, my husband and I have very different ways of classifying movies. Also, I want finding a specific film to be a quick process.</div>

I need to find a pattern/fabric that will be durable and also go well with our style, no matter where we move.

Basically, I like looking at what other people have/buy. I also don't like wasting my money of stuff that isn't amazing. I've decided to do six posts this year that mainly focus on products I've tried. I've been watching way too many YouTube haul videos by makeup gurus lately. Anyway, I'll sort of review products and things I've purchased. </div>

I love big purses. Sometimes, though, I like to avoid the hassle of lugging a big purse around. There was a pretty great flash sale at the beginning of January. I love this color (I think they meant for it to be Persimmon, but it said Permission.). Anyway, it's great in winter, but I'm looking forward to using it in Spring and Summer, too.</td></tr>

I haven't done as much canning as I would have liked to these past few years. My extended family, however, has been like a scurry of squirrels, stocking us for the winter.

I took some family portraits for my friend earlier this year. I used the goofiest image I could find for this project, because those make me smile the most...They seem to spark the best memories.

I used wrapping paper to decorate the other side and stickers to display the year. I think when I make more, I'll continue to use wrapping paper but perhaps try scrapbook paper, too. Also, I might try puffy paint or something instead of the stickers for my next batch. I may also use them as gift tags next year, depending on how productive I have time to be.</div>

I love the Valentine's Day color scheme. It's the only time of year when I can justify ignoring what my mother has told me since I started putting my own outfits together as a child: pink and red clash. I honestly have not worn an outfit comprised of these two colors. Ever. I just might change that this year.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I find combined shades of a color (ombre, if you will) very aesthetically pleasing, so naturally I love this color combo. Pink and white alone are enough to fuel my girly jets, but the combination of this trio just makes the world right for a little while. Plus, I'm kind of a drama queen.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Without further ado, here's my compilation of Valentine-y amazingness:<div>

A lot of people make resolutions for each new year, and leave them in the cold a few weeks later. I'm not going to do that. I am going to make a conscious effort to do a few things, though. I've made a goal list for this year and I'm excited to work at it.</div>

If nothing else, I've been more outfit-conscious this year. I've tried a lot of clothing I would have scoffed at and walked away from. This particular outfit seems simple, but it's a big step up from my old t-shirt and jeans habit. </div>

Now, for something that isn't totally out of the ordinary...I got another tattoo. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My grandpa has been gone twenty years now, so I decided now was as good a time as any to get it. I went with a carpenter theme since (it was his profession and) he built the house he and my grandma retired to. That's where all the Christmases and Easters and all of the family gatherings of my childhood were held. </div>

I started with a Greenies box.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinPlLEHOiU0wFDCDKZjjdjh6RCeWXdh1fPDiTgw25z_g-7FQD9Qfqtvo_XiT3c4lxCjLGOxI0pxzccnxbLVXoj4ZjReWMV35pnp2Dp_6wovDAcc7m-GYckT8DbQjb-ZpqTx_vhf5_WQPoU/s1600/_MG_3039.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinPlLEHOiU0wFDCDKZjjdjh6RCeWXdh1fPDiTgw25z_g-7FQD9Qfqtvo_XiT3c4lxCjLGOxI0pxzccnxbLVXoj4ZjReWMV35pnp2Dp_6wovDAcc7m-GYckT8DbQjb-ZpqTx_vhf5_WQPoU/s320/_MG_3039.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
And a few supplies: pretty wrapping paper, double-sided tape, transparent tape and scissors.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCVABhrm9nWYK7Ld6JHpi65Gu_wHBBEZm4wMjLslOYh3tqSw9Y7EcmDQMxqqr8z7lTPFoar3GHOZkILRnoV-Y0arZYzFRhbJY4Om6Pmh6TqzQzW1TY2ZElG_RcyqXeAHRiwgYpbdgTN_uV/s1600/_MG_3040.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCVABhrm9nWYK7Ld6JHpi65Gu_wHBBEZm4wMjLslOYh3tqSw9Y7EcmDQMxqqr8z7lTPFoar3GHOZkILRnoV-Y0arZYzFRhbJY4Om6Pmh6TqzQzW1TY2ZElG_RcyqXeAHRiwgYpbdgTN_uV/s320/_MG_3040.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Adhere one side of the double-sided tape all the way around the top of the uncovered box. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx_HcvSJeEgSRvwkcy921DwD9jQS_fqUxJTVTqklz46ZvGtQXapASHFRBcC9dRry5hd0iB5bvQ1OgncKEjSWo-QKp7_hfNZfnQp61F1KXg669Fpkr_DWz-knI8qYEL8RKNGWX9mOZgE9mV/s1600/_MG_3045.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx_HcvSJeEgSRvwkcy921DwD9jQS_fqUxJTVTqklz46ZvGtQXapASHFRBcC9dRry5hd0iB5bvQ1OgncKEjSWo-QKp7_hfNZfnQp61F1KXg669Fpkr_DWz-knI8qYEL8RKNGWX9mOZgE9mV/s320/_MG_3045.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Apply wrapping paper carefully; the double-sided tape should be the only thing connecting the paper to the box after this.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin6s_n5TedOg24t3D2UplJ5eIF7mdR1XmmMgqZWPJ79B_VvXhLfZrOYaRimZ-nh3uTebGN4lqGj0sKeuRs78H24quHSUthWzyBvfTdVy4lf9NRF2irRaSVtXpX4Nsf9w3TwwT77cHBrvpD/s1600/_MG_3044.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin6s_n5TedOg24t3D2UplJ5eIF7mdR1XmmMgqZWPJ79B_VvXhLfZrOYaRimZ-nh3uTebGN4lqGj0sKeuRs78H24quHSUthWzyBvfTdVy4lf9NRF2irRaSVtXpX4Nsf9w3TwwT77cHBrvpD/s320/_MG_3044.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
Then, using the transparent tape, wrap the box like you would a normal gift, from the open topside down.<br />

It's actually silver, which you can tell from the one on the right.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
To make your own, you'll need:<br />
<br />
canvas (I only used an 8x10)<br />
<br />
glitter<br />
<br />
Elmer's glue<br />
<br />
Q-tip (a toothpick would probably be helpful as well)<br />
<br />
scissors<br />
<br />
pencil<br />
<br />
<br />
I followed <a href="http://justdaisydreaming.blogspot.com/2011/11/glitter-reindeer.html">Kelsey's tutorial</a> with the exception of using hairspray to keep the glitter under control, like Kristin did.<br />
<br />
First, I downloaded <a href="http://www.google.com/imgres?q=reindeer&hl=en&client=safari&sa=X&rls=en&biw=1222&bih=615&tbm=isch&prmd=imvnsu&tbnid=M5VOQZU9p0dOrM:&imgrefurl=http://www.myspace.com/reindeerband&docid=6kZ5jpy2xNvKpM&imgurl=http://www.profile-tweak.com/uploads/images/2006-12-13/GwHP7fJPt6.gif&w=374&h=500&ei=Eu2FUK3iJKqZyQHpgIGQBg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=114&vpy=146&dur=661&hovh=260&hovw=194&tx=113&ty=153&sig=116823083943363044833&page=2&tbnh=134&tbnw=101&start=18&ndsp=26&ved=1t:429,r:18,s:0,i:191">this</a> template, resized it and printed. After cutting it out (and removing the body), I taped it to the canvas and traced it with pencil. Be sure to spread the glue evenly and be especially careful around the edges so the outline doesn't bleed. It took me probably six tries to get every spot glittered well, but it's totally worth it. He's a beaut!<br />

Start with flat-finish latex paint in any shade. For small areas, such as a door panel, mix 1 cup at a time.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #5e5a57; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">
1. Pour 1 cup of paint into a container. Add 2 tablespoons of unsanded tile grout. Mix with a paint stirrer, carefully breaking up clumps.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #5e5a57; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">
2. Apply paint with a roller or a sponge paintbrush to a primed or painted surface. Work in small sections, going over the same spot several times to ensure full, even coverage. Let dry.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #5e5a57; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">
3. Smooth area with 150-grit sandpaper, and wipe off dust.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #5e5a57; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">
4. To condition: Rub the side of a piece of chalk over entire surface. Wipe away residue with a barely damp sponge. <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/271574/custom-color-chalkboard-paint">http://www.marthastewart.com/271574/custom-color-chalkboard-paint</a></div>

I paid $10 for them at PacSun like four years ago. I got my money's worth out of them already, really. But I wore them to school the other day and realized that I have a bad habit. I wipe <i>everything</i> that I don't want on my hands, on my jeans. The tops of the thighs were stained a nice brown color (I was probably the only one who noticed - I tend to exaggerate a little bit). I was irritated until I realized that it's possible to bleach, then dye jeans. Duh! I wouldn't have had to get those white thrifted ones (could've saved myself $1, ya'll) I dyed mint green. Anyways, now I want red-orange. So that is what I'm currently working on.<br />
<br />
<br />
It's really too bad I didn't check out this <a href="http://www.moneycrashers.com/how-to-dye-fabric-clothes-make-natural-dyes/">tip</a> page before buying more Tulip dye, but it was only $3. And I'll be damned if I didn't just throw out a bunch of celery leaves that could've been the yellow component for my red-orange...<br />
<br />
I'll keep you posted on how they turn out. One blogger said it took 21 hours to bleach her jeans. That's just<i> hours in the bleach</i>, not the time in between to avoid the jeans becoming a snack for the chemical filled water. -_- I just put mine into a five gallon bucket, before I read that it may take me three days to find the time to finish just the bleaching process. I hope the new color will blow me away so I forget all of the work involved. <br />

By combining elements from <a href="http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/baked-egg-rolls-10000000665199/">this recipe</a> and <a href="http://www.ragester.com/showthread.php?480-Reuben-Rolls">this recipe</a> and the back of the egg roll package, I've made a healthier version of <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/212513676137887592/">this pin</a> (by baking, not deep-frying). I doubled the recipe, but here is the compilation of the instructions I followed:<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-size: 13px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ingredients:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-size: 13px;">8 ounces corned beef (ground or shredded)</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-size: 13px;">6 ounces shredded Swiss cheese</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-size: 13px;">1/2 cup sauerkraut, rinsed and drained</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-size: 13px;">1/4 cup onion</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-size: 13px;">12 to 15 egg roll wrappers</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Directions:</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Preheat oven to 425°</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-size: 13px;">Combine corned beef, cheese, sauerkraut and 1/4 cup onion and mix well. Place about 2 tablespoons of the mixture in the center of an egg roll wrapper. Roll up as directed on package, sealing edges with a little water.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lightly brush egg rolls with olive oil, and place, seam side down, on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 425° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.</span></span><br />

I also made some with Pillsbury Crescent rolls. I used the Reduced Fat ones for my stepdad, but it's helpful anyway because they're thinner and easier to work with than the flaky, delicious thick ones. </span><br />

First of all, I love making chili. It's usually simple, but my excitement comes from the oodles of recipes to try. My friend Tina makes the best white chicken chili I've ever had. My grandma used to make pretty amazing chili featuring kidney beans and home-grown beef. Mostly, it's just a really fun fall tradition.<br />

This year, I took a <a href="http://www.food.com/recipe/mrs-lundins-chili-with-noodles-166804">basic recipe</a> and altered it. I used three pounds of beef from Adam's uncle's farm (because I'm still sticking to <a href="http://hellosquirrel.blogspot.com/2012/04/change.html">this</a>). I replaced both tomato sauce and diced tomatoes with three jars of canned tomatoes (which grew in our garden). We didn't have any kidney beans and I added some fresh chopped garlic. That's about it for the alterations.<br />

For me, chili isn't chili without noodles. However, since my stepdad's recent scare with diabetes, I didn't put up a fight when he asked that I make the noodles on the side. I still get my chili with noodles and he isn't forced to pick out a massive amount of carbohydrates. Win, win.<br />

Fun facts about the words "fall" and "autumn": In the British Isles, the term “autumn” has been used since the 1300s, and the phrase “the fall of the leaf” or just “the fall” was used from the 1500s until about 1800. After that time, “autumn” became the common seasonal term in Britain. According to <em>The New Fowler’s Modern English Usage</em>, “whereas ‘the fall of the leaf’ (less frequently ‘the fall of the year’) and then ‘fall’ by itself gradually became standard in America from the late 17th century onwards" (5). However, one exception for American usage of “autumn,” instead of “fall,” is with the autumnal equinox.
