Humpday Tutorial | Handmade Soaps with 100 Layer Cake

I love the idea of having soaps made for special occations!  In fact, my mom makes handmade soaps and for my Bridal Shower last summer, she made a variety of natural soaps for all of my gals. They were a smash, because everyone loved the natural textures and scents!  So, when I found this tutorial, I instantly fell in love because it hit home for me.  I really wanted to share this from 100 Layer Cake (the giveaway has already passed, sorry) so you can make your own soaps at home!

DIY | Pet Pouches

I stumbled upon this blog post on the b-line this morning and thought that many of you would love it as much as I do!  It’s a DIY pet pouch that you can make and attach to your pups collar to hold things like your house key, a doggy-poo bag, etc. so you don’t have to carry it if you don’t have pockets.  I’m sure you can alter the size a tad to fit your lifestyle.  I don’t recommend ever putting a cell phone in a pouch around your dogs neck though.  It could be terrifying if it rang or vibrated while attached to them!  We don’t want our puppy-pals to be stressed out!  I think this is a fab project and it doesn’t seem to take much time at all. To make it a Green project, use some scrap fabric that you have laying around.  For example, an old t-shirt or old pair of funky PJ pants.
