I'm Featured on Tip Junkie!


I'm happy to announce that my pillow-making obsession has earned me a spot on Laurie's Tip Junkie today! Yippee! This is just the nod I needed to get Mr. VB to lift the ban on fabric shopping. It's going to be a busy weekend ;-)

In addition to the pillows featured on Tip Junkie today, don't miss my original no-sew pillow tutorial.

 

Or my recent Starfish pillow.

Summer of the Burger | Week 2

The way things have been looking lately, I will have to change the name of my blog to Vanilla Beef. Thanks to some recent yard sale finds, however, I am hoping to have some new DIY projects up soon. Hold tight!

In the meantime, let me introduce you to Juicy Lucy. She is a tasty little burger I found in my Food Network magazine. Instead of putting the cheese on top of the burger, you put it on the inside. Kinda like a present. But without the, "Is this going to fit me" feeling.

Spice up your burger however you want and follow the photo tutorial below:

*Editor's Note*Between steps 2 & 3, put your Lucy on the grill. It won't look like the burger in step 3 if you forget this important detail! Also, to avoid raw meat, like in the photo is step 4, make sure you cook your Lucy long enough!
