2 Minute Bathroom Accessories

Q-Tip and Cotton Ball Jar


Isn't this the cutest thing ever?  I seriously love it!  Ok, I may feel a little silly blogging about it but I really thought it was so cute, I just had to share.  


And made from things I already had in  my house.  As a matter of fact, I needed to clear out some of my junk just sitting collecting dust.  I truly love the blue ball jars and the old insulators.  I have several and just cant bring myself to get rid of them.



I thought this was a great way to integrate the look into rooms other than my kitchen too!




All you are going to need is a canning jar and an old insulator.


Fill the jar with cotton balls....


fill the insulator with Q-tips....


And fit the insulator on top of the jar!  See, almost too easy to share with you.  But ho wmuch do you love it.

DIY Mayo - who knew!

The Easiest Kitchen DIY Ever!!!!

Seriously, this is one of the quickest and easiest things I have made in the kitchen.



You are never going to believe how easy this is, and once you've done it, you'll never buy it again!  Just sayin'

All you are going to need is

an egg and
a quarter cup olive oil

Thats it, really!    (Now if you don't love the taste of olive oil then you can replace half or more with safflower oil.)

Put the egg and oil in your measuring cup


add some other flavors if you want, you can see what I like to add to mine, but plain is fine too!


Put in your stick blender, turn it on.

The last step to this step literally takes about 10 seconds.  It whips up into mayo and you are done.  

It will last in the fridge for me for about 2 weeks.  That is why I only make up a small batch at a time, but you can use it for whatever you want, sandwiches, potato salad, ranch dip, whatever!
