I’m LOVING the new Dollar Tree Spring Organizers. They come in pastel blue, light green, red, and pink this year. This is one of my favorite seasons to organize because the colors of the bins are so classically beautiful (Mommas of girls you have to check out their pink options…ahh!). Get out there and stock up, people! Here’s how I transformed my under the sink area in our powder room from zero to hero with just $5! Enjoy 🙂

I love getting crafty during the week with Carson. That hands-on time is so important for filling our day (and I really think it helps him rest better for naps and a night!). One of my favorite go-tos for craft ideas is the Dollar Tree.
They sell self laminating sheets (5 for $1) and they make awesome stained glass windows with tissue paper!

After I shared this Mexican shells in bulk recipe, you asked for more. Here’s an easy way to make your morning simpler (I’m all about that….our mornings are always so hectic over here!)
We love the Quaker oatmeal quick-heat packs you can buy, but they are expensive. And honestly not all that healthy. For the convenience without the price and additives, you are going to LOVE these DIY Oatmeal Packs that you can use with your Keurig! Breakfast in 30 seconds and no hassle!
I originally got the idea on from A Few Short Cuts blog here. Here’s a breakdown of the recipe (it makes about 12-15 servings):
10 cups of quick cook oats (6 cups whole, 4 cups powdered)
1 tsp salt
3 tsps cinnamon
1.5 cups brown sugar
1 cup coffee creamer or powdered milk
Mix ingredients together and put in snack baggie or disposable cups. Put 6 oz of water in your Keurig or put it on the 6 oz setting. Put oatmeal into the cup and run a water cycle. Mix and let stand for 2-3 minutes. Instant oatmeal!!!
See how I make and store them here (all on the cheap of course!)
