No Excuses!

Do you have 4 minutes?

No more excuses when it comes to working out. Even if you have a busy day do this workout, you will feel a lot better and it will get your heart pumping.

Bookshelf Covers

My bookshelf is from Ikea and for the longest time it looked like this, especially with little ones in my home.

Before....

After....

So I got the inspiration from here to make my bookshelf more organized. I didn't want to make boxes, but to simply cover up the empty spots or books I didn't want to display. So I came up with this alternative.

I got some patio furniture this summer so I kept the box it came in and cut it up to make the covers, which were 13x13 inches and the sides were 13x5 inches. The center slot is 1x3 inches.

Items needed:

• Cardboard
• Box cutter or blade
• Measuring tape
• Glue gun/glue sticks
• Fabric of your choice (2 yards to make 12 boxes) or you could even us Scrapbooking paper
• Mod Podge
• Paint (if you want to paint the sides)
• Sponge Brush or Paint brush

What do you think? Much better right!?

Menu Board

Here is my latest project.... a Menu Board

I got the idea from here which I saw on Pinterest :)

The frame was from the dollar store and I added my own scrapbook paper, ribbon, and cut out letters. If you want it use a fancier frame you can do that too.

This is going to save me a lot of paper by just simply using my hand or a paper towel to clean the dry erase marker off and updating my menu regularly.

Workout of the Day!

Don't worry about fitting into a size 2 pair of jeans, focus on being fit and healthy.

Here is a workout to get you moving! I did three sets of this and by set 3 I was really feeling it, so challenge yourself, but don't forget to take a few breaks to catch your breath and drink some water.

With a 5 minute warm-up, 3 sets with a few breaks throughout, and a 5 minute cool down/stretching it took about 30-35 minutes.

What are Burpees?? Click here for a demo. You may know them as UP-Downs

Change up the pushups throughout the workout by doing the first 5 regular(with your arms out to your side) then the next 5 military style (with your elbows next to your body). If you cannot do 5 regular pushups start on your knees until you have the strength to do them the regular way. Keep those abs in tight and your back straight. Good Luck!

Be happy with what God gave you and make the best of your physique!

Sincerely,

Alisha

Two more skirts

I made these over the weekend and finally got Anya to model them to take a picture. What do you think? I was trying to figure out what else I needed to put on the skirt so I came up with the flower on the floral skirt and a bow for the gray skirt.

Been waiting for motivation?

Another great quote!
