Make your Own Brigadeiro

You have to love a recipe with only 3 ingredients!! My husband and I watch a show on desserts and learned how to make Brigadeiro from Brazil. They look so amazing and easy to make that we had to try it. We both enjoy cooking together and we thought cooking Brigadeiro with the kids would be fun!!
The three simple ingredients are... 
3 Table Spoons of cocoa, 
1 can (14 ounces) of sweet 
and condense milk and 1 tablespoon of butter.
Optional toppings: sprinkles, nuts or powder sugar.
That is it!!
Step 1: Place the ingredients in a medium pan, over low heat and stir constantly! Mix until when you stir you can see the bottom of the pan. 
Step 2: Put the mixer in a separate container to cool and rest. 
Step 3: Cover your hands in butter. Scoop and roll mixer into small balls, then be creative and roll ball into toppings. 
Enjoy!

Sweet Coin Purse Tutorial for Teacher Gifts

This strip of fabric is used to clip a key fob to your coin purse later....

Cute as a Button Bookmark Tutorial

These are called Cute as a Button Bookmakers. They are cheap, easy to make and are wonderful gifts!  All you need is  Bookmarkers/ PaperClips Size 45 or 1 1/8" Button Covers and kit Glue Gun Pliers (which you won't need if you get the flat back buttons). Step 1: Make a few fabric covered buttons.  These are size 45 or 1 1/8" buttons. Step 2: If you use normal buttons you will need to take the loops off to make them flat. However you can buy flat back buttons and not have to worry about the loop. Step 3: Add a dab of hot glue to the top of the large paperclip pad and place your fabric button on top of the glue. Step 4: Let it cool and it's ready to use! Happy Crafting!
