Linky Party

May 1st, 2015

My whole desire for this theme

is to help myself and others 

like me, to use what we have stashed

a way in our home. Items like

fabric, books, patterns, clothes, 

beads, cooking items, an old 

vase,etc...  

How many of us have purchased 

fabric with the hopes of making one

or more quilts.  Maybe, it's those 

cookies from that new cookbook we've 

had for 5 years, or that new 

shape cake pan that has been tucked 

away in the kitchen. 

I own a numerous amount of

 books and apparel patterns 

that need to be used. In order 

to use some of those patterns, 

I can look to see if I

have fabric already in my stash.  

If I do, there is no need for me 

to purchase any fabric.  But, I may 

have to buy a zipper to 

finish up that project. 

Then again it could be those t-shirts

you've been saving to make a t-shirt quilt 

for your special someone.  

There is no reason we can't 

repurpose our items. 

My hopes for this linky party 

is to also give us a chance to 

rethink and really examine the 

items we have. If you're not going

 to use it, then lose it by giving 

those items away or by throwing

 them out.  This will help us to 

declutter and help us feel good about

ourselves. We can help someone 

by giving it away, or we can try 

and sell some stuff and put money back

in to our pocket. It helps us to
 declutter and get better organized.

Now that you know what this 

Linky Party is about, connect

Use It Or Lose It #Linky Party!!

So what have you found in your 

stash that you just needed to use! 

 I received a Kindle Fire cover for 

Christmas and decided to make a 

cover with my stash.  

Not only did I make

 one, but two! 

                              

Love them both!  

I used

Pineapple Upside Down Cake Recipe- Yummy!!!

I'd like to share one of my

favorite recipes.  So yummy 

to my tummy!!!

#Pineapple Upside Down Cake #Recipe

              Ingredients:  

         1/4 cup butter

         3/4 cup packed sugar

         1  (20 oz) can sliced pineapple,

            drained

         Maraschino Cherries, drained

          1-1/3 cup flour

          1 cup sugar

          1/3 cup butter

          3/4 cup milk

          1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder

          1/2 teaspoons salt

          1 egg

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter in an iron skillet. Take your brown sugar and sprinkle it over the butter.  Arrange pineapple slices on top of the butter and sugar mixture.  Place the maraschino

cherries in the center of slices. Add extra cherries around pineapple slices.  I do!  

In a large bowl add remaining ingredients and beat well. Pour batter over pineapple mixture. 

Bake for 35-45 minutes.  Check with a tooth pick to see if it comes out clean.  Remove from oven. Allow to cold for 10 minutes.  Place your dish over skillet and flip onto dish. Be careful, it will be hot.

Hope your decluttering is going well.  I'm done with my living room area.  Moving on to the Guest Room!!  Pictures to follow!   Grab my button.

Use It Or Lose It - Declutter and Get Organized

My husband had to work today, boohoo!  

But it does give me a day to blog, 

organize and plan my first month of 

the year!  A really good thing.

I wrote a post a few month back

Organizing One Room At A Time.

 My motto for the year is to continue

 organizing one room at a time and 

to save money(who doesn't want to save) 

by using what I have. I've been a crafter, 

sewer, baker, and quilter for many years.  

Therefore, I have many things in 

my kitchen cabinets, in my fabric 

and crafting stash that may not be 

of use to me any more.  

But, I also have many things that I 

know I can put into good use in 2015. 

Having more isn't alway best, but 

it can help me to

 save and spend a little on things I need 

to finish up a project.

Furthermore, its time to declutter and

reorganize areas of my life, areas in 

my home, and become more productive

 with my time. Decluttering

has always been a challenge for 

me. As I tend to get rid of 

stuff at a slow pace.  I have to 

realize that giving things away 

will benefit others, selling a 

few things will put money in my pocket,

 and tossing those unuseful 

items will either allow me to 

 replace it with something new 

or simply free up some 

needed space.

I challenge all of you to 

grab my button, 

Use It Or Lose!!! 

Free yourself from clutter.

  Let's create!

<a href="http://www.inchworming.blogspot.com" target="_blank"><img alt="inchworming" src="http://i1306.photobucket.com/albums/s571/inchworming/useitorloseit_zps97ffea6e.jpg" /></a>

I know we've heard that saying 
before regarding our weight. This 
is some what different.  Of course, 
you can make a recipe with items in 
your kitchen. 

Let's be creative and (Use It) 
use what we have and only 
purchase items we need to finish 

up our projects. 

                                                             

It's been a desire of mine to make 
it a normal thing for me to do. 
I thought, I can't be the only one 
with that desire.  I hope you all 
will join me on this new venture, 
Use It Or Lose It!

I hope to have a linky button so that 
we can link up those fabulous 
Use It Or Lose It projects/items 

we've decided to keep, give away or 
toss.  My first linky party will be 
February 1, 2015 and hopefully 

continue on the first of every month!

But in January, I will start 
to organize my 

Living Room/Dining Room area 
(it's one room) at a time!  
Come join the party!!!

Please leave me a comment 
if you're interested!!

 I need all your support and help 
to launch this new 

slogan! Use It Or Lose It!!
