Tuesday Tutorial ---- Making Pillowcases

Making your own pillowcases is a great way to save money. Bedding is very expensive today!

This video tutorial shows you how easy it is to make a pillowcase with enclosed seams so you have no visible seams when you are done.

You could make this with just basic sewing skills.

Organizing - Under The Kitchen Sink

I found this really inspiring blog post at www,jengrantmorris.blogspot.com for organizing under the sink. She shares both a before and after photo with really awesome results.

Here's a sneak peek... I just love how she used the tension rod to hang the spray bottles. She has other great ideas so be sure to visit.




After looking around a little more I found this under sink transformation at www.organizewithsandy.com. She has both before and after photos and there's quite a transformation.




I also thought this was a clever idea using cleaning totes, you can grab what you need or take the whole thing with you. Check out www.pinecreekstyle.blogspot.com
