Are you a Prepper? I totally am. I love all things Preparedness! But let me make it clear, I am not a Zombie Apocalypse Prepper. The Zombies can take me of they want… I am the kind of prepper who loves seeing my 72 Hour kits packed and ready, My food shelves stocked with food, and learning new ways to use my shelf stable food or making my own shelf stable food. I’m Nerdy like that.
With canning season upon us I though it would be a great idea to share with you a round up of my favorite canning recipes. You can also check out my Pinterest boards for more links to canning, food storage and all things preparedness! Follow me if you would like and learn more about being prepared!

5. Cut a long piece of
hook and loop tape. Fold your bag the way you would like it and place your Hook and loop tape. Place one piece on the
outside of the fabric on the short end.
Stitch into place. On the opposing short end place the other piece of hook and
loop on the inside fabric. Stitch into place. The hoop and loop on the inside fabric is going to become
the top of your bag.
6. All finished. Your bag can be washed and dried and used again.
Isn’t this Thermo Web so cool. I think you could use this for all kinds of projects; Baby Bibs, Art Smock, chair covers or placemats. The possibilities are endless.
For more awesome Back to school projects come spend a little Free Time at my online home!

So I found this adorable basket at a local craft store and went to work filling it up.
I started by shopping at my local Office Depot. This week they have an awesome sale going on.

It’s perfect for picking up a little something for that special teacher! I picked up Sharpie Markers, Mr. Sketch Marker, Uni-ball pens, Expo Window Markers and Sharpie Highlighters.
And my last printable. Every teacher loves a new package of Sharpie’s. I love opening a fresh package in bright colors. I think I get more excited about that than my kids do. I think I need a Sharpie project for my fresh new markers!
