Long Holiday Weekend Ahoy!



So I should be getting some love this weekend in the form of a Yarnbox.  Until I do I thought I would share with you a little honey-do list I made for myself for this holiday weekend:

  •  Garden.  That's right! Its finally safe for me to plant those flowers and make my yard shine! 
  • DIY Chalk.  I'm going over my to my friends house next weekend and I never go empty handed.  They have 4 kids and I'm sure they'll love this chalk I'm going to make in different shapes for them!

  • Cuticle Oil. Batch #2.  The first batch I made with a wonderful lemon essential oil that not only smells great but strengthens nails.  Unfortunately with summer on its way any citrus essential oils can be photo-sensitizing.  So it's time to whip up a batch that can be used by the poolside.  (By the way, this too makes an excellent gift.  Especially for overworked exhausted mother's of 4)

  • Lotion Bar.  Hubby has been asking me to make these for him since I first got into making my own lotions and bath products.  I wrote them off as too simple.  Now I'm taking a second look and seeing if I can add my own twist.

  • Plan my next knitting project.  I want to dig out some yarn and start organizing my stash, while I do that I hope a project taps me on the shoulder.

  • Clean.  Yeah no fun.  Needs to be done.  'Nuff said.

  • Family. Time to spend some quality time with the Mother-in-Law.  I think we are going to play with the nail stencils I acquired  (shhh.... she doesn't know about them)

  • Friends. Long overdue quality time with some gal pals that need hugs.


What kind of plans do you all have for the Holiday?
