$0 Budget Month Guest Post: Tutus & Tea Parties

Hi, I'm Lauren. I am super happy to be sharing some ideas with you here on 

Full of Great Ideas!

I post over at Tutus & Tea Parties about art & activities for the kiddos, tutorials for the parents and some great info I come across for parents. I am a wife to a very understanding hubby who deals with crafting supplies taking over our small apartment and a moma to a 2 1/2 year old toddler {known as Bug} who loves to play, craft and cook with me. We live on a pretty tight budget so crafting isn't always something I can spend a lot on. If you ask Bug where she likes to shop she will tell you Walmart & Michaels. We love using our 40% off coupon at Michaels and will go once a day if we have to get multiple things {or we will drag along some friends or family to make a purchase for us}.

Here are a couple $0 budget projects we have done:

TP Roll Binoculars for the kiddos:

We used two toilet paper rolls, a scrap piece of yarn and glue. Easy peasy!

Magnetic Bookmarks:

We used a paint strip {free at home stores & Walmart has them too}, glue, business magnets {like you get from the pizza place and what not}, and I used a brad...but that is optional.

Necklace Onesie {flower optional}: Don't you just love baby bling?!

We used a white onesie we already had, acrylic paint or fabric paint {I have about 20 bottles of acrylic & fabric paint on hand...is that normal?}, a pencil and a small paint brush.



I'd love to know if you make any of these! Just post a pic on my Facebook page to show me.

Thank you,
Lauren
