September Pinterest challenge - day 5 - stain remover
I've seen this post all over Pinterest about using dawn soap and hydrogen peroxide as a stain remover. I was skeptical about it until I gave it a try. Use 2 parts hydrogen peroxide to one part dawn soap, mix them together in a spray bottle. Spray the affected area and let sit for about 10 minutes and then wipe the area with a cloth and voila!

September Pinterest Challenge - Day 3 - Easy tote
As throw back to my first sewing project I decided to make an everyday tote from some pretty sweet fabric I found at Beverley's. Here is a simple tutorial for this bag I got off Pinterest: http://schwurlie.blogspot.com/2011/07/tutorial-super-easy-tote-bag.html
Below see my inspiration and then my new bag.

September Pinterest Challenge - Day 2 - Borax tub scrub
I have seen many post talking about Borax as this miracle cleaner. I happen to have some Borax and decided to try a few on the uses for it from this blog, http://www.cleanmama.net/2013/07/cleaning-with-borax-11-simple-recipes-free-printable.html
My first attempt was to clean my toilet bowl with a 1/4 cup of borax in the bowl. Let it sit for 30 minutes and then scrub away. Granted it worked, but I didn't see a difference between using that and a regular toilet bowl cleaner.
The other Borax recipe I tried was to clean my bath tub. The box/blog said to sprinkle Borax and then scrub away with a bit of water. I was really hoping this would work, since I haven't been able to get my tub totally clean before. Unfortunately I didn't see much of a difference after my scrub. I plan to use another Borax recipe with the addition of white vinegar and soap. Check out my before and after of my tub scrub!
