These pillowcase bags are very addicting. They can be made in about an hour, or maybe even less if you're really good. I had no hubby today to model it though! This one took a little longer, because Isaiah learned how to climb up on the couch and take things off the end table. Needless to say, he needed a little more supervision after that. Well, actually, after I found him trying to drink out of a teacup candle I had there.
Speaking of teacup candles, I made some more last night. I love making these! My thrift store always has the best teacups. I haven't had the heart to make these ones into candles because they're so pretty. But they need to be made into something, any ideas??
Watermelon Margaritas
Watermelon
1/2 cup tequila ( I used sauza silver)
1/4 orange flavor liquer (I used Grand Marnier)
Juice of 4 limes
2 tablespoons of simple syrup
Cut the watermelon into 1 inch cubes (doesn't have to be exact) and place in the freezer. You can leave these in until they are solid like ice cubes, but I only left mine in for about 1/2 an hour and it worked out just fine. If you would like your margarita more "frozen" just add some ice cubes. Add the watermelon and rest of ingredients into blender, and blend until smooth. Serve in a glass with a sugared rim.

I love the tote - it's adorable! I love that magazine. Sigh.
Your thrift store has great pillowcases too! I might have to get that magazine. I think I'll just subscribe, actually.
I am loving that pillowcase tote. It's even cuter than Martha's!
Thanks for the Watermelon Margarita recipe, now I know what I'm having on Saturday!
Your totes are so cute! I think I need to pick that issue of Martha.
I'm seriously drooling over your margaritas. Yum!!
Hmm...how about using the teacups as planters, jelly molds or bird feeders ?
Clara :-)
super de duper idea for the tea cups and you still can use them to drink out of....put one of those big vinyl covered cup hooks on either side of a curtain, then hang the cup from it. you can lay the curtain behind the cup for curtain tiebacks.easy peasy!
