cleaning sucks

might as well make it look cute!

a lot of times when i clean my house i forget to do something and by the time i remember, i already am half way through a Law & Order episode and i'll be damned if i abandon it before I know what happens! what i've decided to do (no final pictures, yet), is create a simple, pared down day to day cleaning checklist that can be really helpful in making sure everything gets done and there's no "oh shit" moment later on.

and in order to be moderately environmentally friendly, i'm going to take it to my local Kinkos and have them laminate it for me.  you could also order a relatively inexpensive laminating machine and then go to town, laminating everything from phone lists to oft-used recipes (thats actually a good idea, cause mine always get soiled!!).  then i'm going to attach a self-adhesive magnetic strip to it, and put it on my fridge. that way it's always there, taunting you - "clean, you lazy a-hole.".

and also that way you can just erase it and start again. just don't forget to use a dry erase marker!! this is also good for chores lists and spring clean lists, etc etc. basically anything you will have to repeat over and over until your dying day. isn't life awesome? lol.

anyway, here you go.

freebie father's day card!

this year i decided not to make father's day cards for my etsy shop.  for no other reason than me realizing way too late that father's day was fast approaching. a lot's been going on and i've been busy and preoccupied so ol' jesse missed this train.  however, i am going to be providing some good old fashioned freebies this week.  starting yesterday with the "for you" gift tags - which also can work swimmingly for a father's day gift tag... all wooden and masculine and what not. here is a cute tie shaped card for papa or husband or son or uncle or grandpa or anyone you know who is a gentleman and has fatherly connections.  he can be your father figure, put your tiny hand in his. george michael knows his sh*t. 

 

 

just print onto heavy cardstock and cut inside the black lines.

fold and write a lovely little note and put into a10 envelope!
