Making Rag Roll Curls
I would bet many of you moms out there have had to create a head of curls at one time or another, whether it be for a special occasion, dance recital, or just for fun, only to have the curls "lost" before the special event even starts. We found a site that gives you instructions on how to make rag curls for next to nothing!

Here is a great blog tutorial with lots of pictures too!

Beer Cheese Dip
Beer Cheese Dip
2 - 8 oz packages cream cheese
3 cups shredded sharp cheddar
1 package ranch dip mix
some beer to mix - usually about 1/3 to 1/2. I like it nice and thick, but you can make it to your liking.
Then use pretzels for dipping. Yum!

Quick and easy bread recipe!
Easy as 1-2-3 Beer Bread

Mix together and cook at 350 for 1 hour! That is it ;)
Add anything you like! I like 1 cup sharp cheddar & Italian seasoning. Also good with fresh ground pepper & sprinkled with Parmesan. Try raisins & cinnamon sugar for a sweet treat kids will gobble up. Nuts, etc. etc. Whatever you like!

Time for change
Stay tuned, this fall we will announce some refreshing changes to the group as a whole. It is exciting and we can't wait to share it with all of you!
We also will be keeping up with the blog and adding new features and giveaways as well.
Summer Snacks
Here are a few quick, simple ideas to cool off with and fuel their energy:
Frosty Fruit Dripless Popsicles |  |
Sensational Slush
Fill a small yoghurt container 2/3 full with juice or pop. Cap with lid and place in freezer for 1 1/2 hours. Then, mix with fork every 1/2 hour or so until to desired consistency.
Summer Fun!
I thought we could share some ideas for activities this summer with our kids. We are always looking for something constructive and fun to do. Here are some that we've found:
Make a quick patriotic tee for the 4th with this tutorial from Family Fun
Make bubbles at home!
| Basic Bubbles 2 tblsp dish soap | Sweet Bubbles 1 tblsp corn syrup | Magic Bubbles 1 tblsp glycerin | Color Bubbles 1 cup liquid tempra paints |
Hints for making bubble solutions
- Mix up the recipes the day before for best results.
- Glycerin is inexpensive and can be found in most drug stores. The children think that the bubbles are so much better that it is worth keeping a small bottle on hand.
- Do NOT use the Sweet Bubbles recipe if you have bees or wasps in your yard.
- Try using sugar or honey if you don't have corn syrup in the house.
- Color Bubbles can be a bit messy. Be sure to use paint that can wash out. You can add a little water if the mix is too thick.
- Karo syrup does just as well as glycerin in the bubble mixture. But watch out for wasps if you are using it outdoors!
Homemade play doh
Homemade Play Doh
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/4 cup salt
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 tablespoon oil
- 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
- a few drops of food coloring
Mix all but the last ingredient in a small saucepan. Cook over a very low heat until it turns into a dough (it’ll take just a few minutes). Knead the dough on a floured surface until cool enough for kids to touch. Separate the dough into as many colors as you want to make. Put just a few drops of coloring in each ball and knead until evenly mixed.

Raffle for a good cause!
Blossom Leigh Boutique design group on eBay has come together for a great cause! My niece Courtney is turning 16 years old this summer and is now old enough to walk in the 3 day 60 mile walk against breast cancer. She has decided she wants to walk and donate money to research in lieu of a sweet 16 party! She has a heart of gold.
Remember - Everyone deserves a lifetime!
This is a link to her page on the 3-day walk.
Now our group BLB Boutique has decided to help her raise money by donating our time and expertise in making custom boutique items. We have 3 prizes to give away and are selling raffle tickets for $10 a piece. These tickets are numbered 1-100 and we will ONLY sell 100 tickets. Tickets are available for purchase from May 15th to June 15th. On July 1st we will draw 3 names. The first name drawn is the grand prize winner, the 2nd name is the 2nd prize, and the 3rd is the 3rd prize. You can purchase more than one ticket to increase your odds, but once sold out there will not be any more! We will announce the winners on July 1st for everyone to congratulate.
Here is our group's page
The winners will work directly with the designer of each item won to create an item just how they want it including custom colors, sizing, etc. Each designer has a stock of supplies that will offer a large variety to choose from and the designers are committed to making sure you get EXACTLY what you want!
