Pumpkin Pecan Cheesecake Bites
By attosa
The intention of this recipe was to stretch one box mix of pumpkin pie bars that served 10 people, into pumpkin pecan cheesecake bites that served 20. It was a total success, especially for those relying on portion control. I found the pumpkin pie bar box mix for $1.49 at the market, and had everything else on hand. These came out SO yummy and there was very little work involved.
Helium Tank Upcycled as The Grinch
By Ana
I found a great way to use and repurpose my empty helium tank. They are sturdy and can be changed over and over with something as simple as spray paint. For this holiday season, I wanted to make one of my favorite characters from a holiday movie.

There are so many art activities that can revolve around elves. They are a very important part of most children's Christmas beliefs. In this craft, your child will get to make miniature elves using only their fingers, paint, and markers. It is a fairly simple craft and the elves turn out to be adorable.

I ran out of wrapping paper and only had a roll of brown 'kraft' paper left (similar to brown paper bags) so I had to get creative. I folded it (as shown) and cut out petals, taped them on and used magic marker. I think it looks nice and homey too! What do you think?

Don't throw that empty salt container away. You can remove the top with the spout and cut it down to fit inside a mason jar ring! Now you can put all kind of things in the jar and easily pour out the amount you want.
