Mini-me is off on a little trip with her grandparents, so Mini-mini-me is home with me and we are enjoying some special mommy-daughter time together. I found a recipe from King Arthur Flour for <a href="http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/tasty-toaster-tarts-recipe" style="color: black;" target="_blank">home-made Pop-tarts</a> a while back and thought today seemed like the perfect day to try it out.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px;"><a href="http://suchprettythings.typepad.com/.a/6a00e553a4097c8834014e8ae273cf970d-pi" style="color: black; display: inline;"><img alt="Poptarts_7" class="asset asset-image at-xid-6a00e553a4097c8834014e8ae273cf970d" src="http://suchprettythings.typepad.com/.a/6a00e553a4097c8834014e8ae273cf970d-500wi" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(153, 153, 153); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-color: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-color: rgb(153, 153, 153); border-left-style: solid; border-left-width: 1px; border-right-color: rgb(153, 153, 153); border-right-style: solid; border-right-width: 1px; border-style: initial; border-top-color: rgb(153, 153, 153); border-top-style: solid; border-top-width: 1px; border-width: initial; padding-bottom: 3px; padding-left: 3px; padding-right: 3px; padding-top: 3px;" title="Poptarts_7" /></a></div><div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px;">We followed the recipe pretty closely, but we just rolled out the dough and cut out a bunch of 3" x 5" rectangles.

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Simply print your own personalized message or quote onto some transparency film using a laser printer. If you don't have a laser printer, print it out with your ink jet printer and then copy it onto the transparency film. You can also take your paper and have the copy center copy it onto transparencies which is usually around $1. The reason it needs to be copied or printed from a laser printer is so the ink will no run and fall apart in the soap. </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

<br />
<br />
<div style="background-color: #cccc99; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">1. Cut several equal length ribbons to cover tops of both flip flops, length of ribbon depends on the size of the flip flop you're using. Make sure the ends are at an angle to help prevent (or slow down) fraying. You can also put a little clear glue on the ends if your ribbon frays, use Fray Check, or very carefully burn the edges with a lighter.</div><div style="background-color: #cccc99; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">2. Start tying the ribbons in the middle and continue towards the edge of the shoe, making sure to alternate colors for variety. Make sure you tie ribbon in a double knot to keep it from coming loose.<br />
3. That's it!! Easy, easy...</div><div style="background-color: #cccc99; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br />

These take about an hour to make, but the colors and possibilities are endless!!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div>*You'll need two bags of multi-colored small water balloons, make sure you choose water balloons for the bold, beautiful colors.<br />
*A pair of flip flops - often available at craft stores, Old Navy, Target, or Walmart for a few dollars.</div><div><br />
</div><div> Begin by stretching and wrapping a single balloon around the rubber foot straps. Pulling the balloon tightly, tie it into a simple square knot.</div><div><br />
</div><div> Continue the process until the entire straps are completely covered with knotted balloons. Push the balloons close to each other for a fully covered appearance.</div>Mom With A Questhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11153652051638369108noreply@blogger.com0
