Since I have a stack of stretch canvas’ in my craft room, I thought a simple wall hanging would brighten up the Valentine season… especially since we have a ton of snow outside.
Using a 12″ x 12″ stretch canvas & several shades of pink acrylic paint, I made this wall hanging. The hardest part of this project is waiting for the paint to dry.
I hope you enjoy it.

Once again, I’m on a ‘No Buy’. Why? Because I have entirely too much stuff in my craft room. I still love to craft & love to use my imagination to create new things, but I’ll be doing them with things that I have on hand. Yes, I’m going to miss my Dollar Tree & Walmart Hauls, but I need the room.
This is what I came up with for Valentine’s Day!
I have been wanting to make the candy/conversation hearts for a long time. That’s why I have so many wooden heart shapes. So, I decided to use a lot of them up this year.
I started off by base coating all of the wood hearts with white acrylic paint & then paint them in pastels. Then using a Royal Rouge colored paint, I added the little sayings to each heart.

This is my recipe for Stewed Tomatoes. Since I’m diabetic, I have to be careful about how much sugar is in my food. This recipe substitutes Splenda for sugar, and I can eat it!
These are the ingredients. They aren’t overwhelming.

I’ve been making this recipe for over 30 years. It’s an easy recipe to make & is very filling.
You need very little ingredients:
Cook rice & set aside.
Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add Garlic Powder to the melted butter. Brown the chicken breasts.
Transfer browned chicken breasts to an oven safe covered dish.
Mix the diced tomatoes with the Italian seasoning, salt & pepper.
Pour tomatoes over the chicken breasts.
Place a slice of Mozzarella cheese over each chicken breast. Lightly sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese.
Bake 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
Put cooked rice on a plate. Add a chicken breast to the rice. Cover with tomato mixture.
Serve & Enjoy!

I love to burn candles, especially when I’m cooking with onions. Problem is, I can’t seem to throw the empty candle jars away. Today, I’m going to show you my little trick for removing the wax from those candle jars.

Welcome to Week 18 of the 20 Wednesdays till Christmas Ornament Series.
Today, I took a plain baby blue glass ornament that I got from Walmart & turned it into a beautiful beaded ornament.
By adding some Mod Podge, I was able to add things like seed beads, rhinestone mesh, clear pearl strands & aurora borealis crystals, to turn these plain ornaments into ornaments that look like upscale ornaments.
Hard to believe that this:

I took a sad little Dollar Tree Christmas tree & turned it into a lush Wall/Door hanging.
This was easier to do than you might think!

I got this recipe from my ex-MIL, at least 25 years ago. She was an excellent cook. When you live in Western Pennsylvania, this is a taste that we’re all familiar with. It uses leftovers to create a very tasty side dish, that is a nice change from the usual.
