My son is currently obsessed with band aids. Every bump, fall and scrape is worthy of a band aid, even if the boo-boo is invisible to the naked eye. He also loves ice packs and the minute he falls he'll scream out for one. I have seen many different styles of Boo-Boo bags in blogland and finally decided to make some. I used leftover fleece because it's soft and cuddly. I filled each bag with rice and tested that they work well right out of the freezer (stored in a zip lock bag) and after a…

DIY microwaveable heat packs.

This freezer pack is super simple to make with just water an alcohol and is great to use as a cold pack! When you remove it from the freezer, if it feels solid, just smoosh it around a bit with your fingers and it re-slushifies and will be squishy again, which is much nicer to drape over an injury or sore muscles than a rock-hard chunk of ice. To make it you'll just need: 3 parts rubbing alcohol 8 parts water 2 Ziploc bags or 1 Foodsaver bag Instructions: Combine three parts rubbing alcohol…

Do you remember my last post about the hoodie scarves?... I told you that Kass and I made something to go with them and I am finally getting around to showing them to you now:) We made some handwarmers to go in the pockets at the end of the scarves! Here in Utah the winters are long and cold...so handwarmers are a winter staple at our house. I usually make a bunch this time of year and keep them in a big bowl in my pantry where they are handy and close to the microwave for a quick heat up on…

First off, to say that this is an easy tutorial would be the understatement of the year. However, I felt like it was a necessary tutorial to write because sometimes you just need to run across a simple idea and think 'hello??? Why haven't I done this already?!' So let's talk about why these are a good idea, shall we? So, my girls constantly have some sort of pain somewhere in their little bodies (don't they all?!). Their main gripe is leg pain at night. So, for years my husband and I have…
