The Marvels Movie Review

They now have to work together to defeat Dar-Benn (Zawe Ashton), a Kree warrior attempting to restore her homeland at the expense of others.
Handling the holiday freeze in your lawn and landscape
The recent holidays blew in with a winter storm that will not soon be forgotten. Here in Tennessee, we missed much of the snowfall that wreaked havoc across the Midwest and Northeast. However, wind and cold temperatures packed a punch for our power grids and landscapes over the Christmas weekend. Now we find ourselves starting 2023 with many questions about the extent of damage and next steps for our lawns and landscapes. Before we get to action steps, let’s recap our recent freeze event.
Instant Pot Dulce de Leche

This falls firmly into the world of TikTok made me do it, except with a bit of a twist. I saw a video of someone making Dulce de Leche in their crockpot, mentioning it took 10 hours, and I said, “No thank you.” Partially because that seemed like a long time and mostly because I don’t have a crockpot.
Three Dip Dessert Board

Although I love cheese and crackers, charcuterie boards were never more than something I enjoyed having other people make for me. Then there were candy boards, then butter boards. I always resisted the urge to make my own. When I finally saw people land on buttercream boards, I knew my time had come.

This post may contain affiliate links which may give us a commission at no additional cost to you. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. After a few coworkers purchased their own under-the-desk treadmills, I quickly hopped on board the trend. The more I thought about how I typically work, my habit of pacing, and the fact that I knew I needed to move more than I did throughout the day, I was sold on the treadmill and standing desk plan. Finding a treadmill was the easy part.

Super Cute, Super Easy Hidden Mickey Earrings

Rockford’s Favorite Soap
• Pick your favorite soap base-any will work. You can easily find soap making materials at your favorite craft store. You can also use plain, unscented soap in place of soap base-just make sure you don't use soaps that float because they're pumped with air in the manufacturing process and will not melt. Cut the soap base into small chunks. • Melt the soap in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir at least once every minute until it's fully melted. • Add lavender oil to your melted soap base.
Tropland Rainforest Vines
• Cut basic leaf shapes out of green crepe paper. Leaves should be approximately two inches long. You can quickly cut multiple leaves by wrapping the crepe paper around your fingers first to create a stack. • Take green thread and use a simple straight stitch trough the tip of each leaf to form the vine. Tie a knot after adding the first leaf and then add additional leaves until your vine has reached the desired length.
The Adventures of Rockford T. Honeypot
• Other Tools To Dig Out Gems • Mix 1/2 cup play sand with 1/4 cup plaster of paris and 1/4 cup water in a disposable bowl. The mixture will appear very thick at first but will quickly take on a pancake batter-like consistency. • Pour just enough of the mixture into the container you want to use as your mold. Small takeout containers or paper cups work well for this. • When the mixture is slightly firm, press in a few of your purple acrylic "amethysts".

DIY Hamilton Earrings
Like many people, I’m obsessed with the Hamilton soundtrack. Like many people who are also obsessed, I’ve yet to see the stage version. One day… My friend Summer requested a Hamilton decal for her laptop. (She’s in the same soundtrack-obsessed boat that I am.) I obliged…a mere month or so after her request, because I allow myself to get easily distracted. While I was cutting with my Silhouette, I wondered if the decal would make good earrings.

Black Panther Costume T-Shirt
Confession time: I like working with vinyl and I hate working with heat transfer vinyl (HTV). I think this is mostly because I don’t have a heat press or easy press, and using a clothes iron to create t-shirts isn’t fun. I do have an easy hack, though. If you’re making something that is more costume than fashion, regular vinyl will totally work! Bonus-it’s also way less expensive to buy regular vinyl. Want to try this for yourself?
