Miss Crafty Pants Monday

I havent really done any crafts this week because I've been so busy, but I did manage to make a cute headband holder for Little Miss. I just took an old oatmeal can and covered it with scrapbook paper. Thats all....and came up with...


this!
So easy and now her headbands are all nice and organized. Since I don't really have any crafts to share I thought I would share how I write my grocery list. Yawn yes, but it does save me ALOT of time so you might like it. I do my meal planning on Sunday and grocery shop on Monday afternoons. I write out all my meals and then go through and write down what I need. I do all this on the computer. I dont have a printer though so the next part I just write on a piece of paper. I divide my paper up into parts of the store. Then I go through my list and divide up my foods into the right section. When I go to the store I never forget something in a certain section because it was all listed together.. I you have a printer you could make yourself a template and save it...easy to fill out.

I also started a donation basket. I found myself finding all these things I wanted to donate and they either stayed in my closet because I didnt want to clutter up the house and I didnt think I had enough to take at the time. I cleaned out my hall closet this morning, and for some reason it dawned on me to just start putting everything into a laundry basket. When the basket is full, its time to donate! \


Next week I have some fun things to show you.... Have a great week!

  1. We saw a man using an app. kind of like your list system. You program the store isles according to your store, and then you upload your list. I think it is like a GPS kind of thing, because it will tell you what to get and where in the most efficient order... but your way is cool too : )
