HOW TO RESHAPE A BEANIE

Beanies are huge this season, so I'm going to let you all in on my little secret. As we all know, when products are "trending" the price sky rockets. For something as simple as a beanie, it's pretty ridiculous to pay anything over 10 bucks for one. However, to get that slouchy look, you usually are charged more...until now :)

I buy my beanies off of amazon ( like this one HERE for less than 2 bucks )

In the picture they look slouchy....but they aren't. That is why they are so cheap, nobody buys them. HOWEVER, it's super easy to make a beanie loose and slouchy

All you do is::

run it under HOT water

ring it out

STRETCH it out, from the rim to the tip

place over a vase, or upside down lampshade to dry

*I like to try mine on after stretching it even though it's wet so I can decide if I like it or should keep going

END TABLE UPCYCLE

I've spent months searching for a deep purple end table for my living room, and couldn't find anything that was reasonably priced. 

When I saw this table at Goodwill, I also noticed that all furniture was half off that day. So I figured I would give the whole upcycle thing a try, and worst case scenario I only wasted 3 bucks on this table.

I am so happy with how it turned out I think upcycling may become a new obsession real quick. I originally had planned to leave it matte versus glossy but apparently I purchased the wrong finishing glaze...however, it worked out for the best.

I began by washing it down and super gluing the loose pieces together

The top of this table was cracked and coarse, so I took a sander to it to smooth things out

I didn't have primer at the time, so I just used my Titanium White acrylic paint for a base ( 2 coats )

*I let each coat dry for 24 throughout this process

The purple was also an acrylic color, and I applied it with a cheap little sponge brush tool

*4-5 coats of purple

Finally I finished it off with a clear finishing spray (remember to double check the can, like I said I didn't know this can had a glossy finish until I applied it)

Crockpot Cranberry Chicken

This recipe is nothing short of amazing. When prepared in a slow cooker, the chicken stays tender and moist versus overcooked and dry. This is my favorite chicken recipe yet...and it is SO EASY

1 bottle Catalina dressing

1 can cranberry sauce

1 envelope onion soup mix

(optional side)

Chedder Jalapeno Diced Potatoes

2-4 red potatoes

cheddar cheese

olive oil

diced jalapenos

cayenne pepper

Being by combining all of the ingredients in a bowl

Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the crock pot

Pour the mixture over the chicken breasts, and cook on low for 5 hours

(or at least check them at 5 hours, can be left in for up to 6 hours)

When ready to serve, pour an extra spoonful of the sauce over the chicken

For the Potatoes:

Peel and dice up the potatoes

Place in a large zip loc bag

Pour in 1/2 C olive oil

Handful of diced jalapenos

Cayenne pepper

Close the baggy and shake up everything inside

Let the potatoes sit in the fridge for one hour

To prepare,

pour baggy out into a skillet

cook on medium for about 10 minutes flipping occasionally

Cover skillet with tinfoil throughout process

For the last minute, sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top
