Tasty Green Smoothie with Only 4 Ingredients

Hello there!!

Today I’m taking my DIY to the kitchen! For those of you that know me, you know that I’m not much of a cook. I mean, I know how to cook, and I’m OK at it, but if a recipe has more than 5 ingredients I usually pass…unless it’s a special occasion or when it’s summer and I have time off from my teaching job 🙂

DIY Blanket Ladder

So excited to show you this DIY Blanket ladder!  If you follow me on Instagram you may have seen the picture of this cutie I made over the weekend! We have cold winters here in Utah. I’m a warm weather lover and every winter I long for summer, but I do like watching the snow cover our beautiful mountains and wrapping myself in a warm throw while watching a movie.  So, this weekend I decided to stay home and make a fun blanket ladder to keep our throws! This ladder would also work well as a towel holder in a bathroom!

How to mount a flat screen TV and hide cords inside the wall

We have had our 55″ flat screen TV for several years now and I have always wanted to mount it, and hide the cords inside the wall for a clean look. I never really pursued it because I thought I would have to hire an electrician ($$$) to do the job, and cutting holes in the wall made me a little nervous. However, after a little research, an awesome already-made electrical kit, and a how-to video, I felt confident to give it a try! I am so glad I did! I will show you how I did it and also give you the links of the materials I used. Seriously guys, you can do this in a couple of hours! Just make sure you get someone to help you lift the TV 🙂 Doesn’t it look nice?? I wish I had done it years ago!
