The Spunky Diva

I am very pleased to have Monika from I Love It All over today with here Address Book Tutorial.  Isn't it the cutest address book ever?!?!?!? ~ Kimberlee ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi friends! I'm Monika Wright and I'm thrilled to be here to share a tutorial with The Spunky Diva today. One of my most favorite things is crafting. Crafting home decor, gifts, mini albums as well as lots scrapbook layouts fill my days. I host a blog called  I Love It All ; to share my love of all things crafty with blog readers and an Etsy shop by the same name, i love it all , to share my love of crafty things with people who support the 'buy handmade' frame of mind.   I had to chuckle to myself when I first found The Spunky Diva blog, as Spunky is the nickname of our youngest daughter. And, she is FULL.OF.LIFE. I suspect when her teen years arrive, she might be a Diva, too! I hope you enjoy this tutorial, it has so many possi...

Hi, I'm Jen from Frugal Invitation . I started using coupons several years ago as a way to save money on my grocery bills while I was going to college. I was paying for tuition out of pocket to avoid debt. Couponing soon became a hobby for me, and I really enjoyed watching the savings grow. Frugal Invitation is a page I created as a way to keep in touch with family and friends after I taught my first coupon class. The focus of my blog is to provide easy ideas to help you shop smarter. Frugal Invitation is your personal invitation to start a new frugal way of life. I hope you'll stop by and take a look around! I'm looking forward to meeting you! Is it really worth it to sign up for Company e-mail lists? Good Question! Yes! See the items in the above picture? I received an e-mail from my local Kohl's recently to inform me that my store had been remodeled. Inside that email, I received $10 off my next shopping trip. Now, before my couponing days I would have gone to Koh...

Hi, I'm Karen from Twice as Nice Boutique.  I was asked to guest post my Morgyn Skirt tutorial here on the Spunky Diva. I love being able to incorporate sewing into my weekly schedule. I have made a variety of different things ranging from coats to quilts, but my main item is Sleep Sacks which I sell in my Etsy shop .  I tend to buy fabric by the bolt now, and my fabric stash (and scrap bin) grow on a weekly basis!   I'm not able to blog as much as I would like to- my husband, kids, and the normal duties that come along with that take most of my time, and I recently volunteered to teach 11th graders sewing at our local high school- so far they enjoy it too!  I love what I do - being able to take fabric and mold it into something new and usable is a rewarding experience.  I hope you have fun making the Morgyn Skirt- it's a nice simple skirt that is easy to make.  Thanks, Karen Morgyn Skirt Tutorial Materials needed 3/4" elastic 2 or 3 color coordinat...

Tiffany is on maternity, and I volunteered a tutorial for a guest post while she is out.  Check it out here !  I sent her my Binkie Bag tutorial.  A fitting tutorial for a mom on maternity leave, LOL! Tomorrow, I am happy to have Karen, from Twice as Nice Boutique , over for a guest post and tutorial.  Come back and check her wonderful tutorial out!

I am very happy to have Nancy posting today about something we each have in our houses { especially in our kitchens! }.  Be sure to take the quick hop over to her site to find tons of great homemaking tips and advice!  For those of you visiting from Nancy's blog, Welcome!  Take a moment to look around and you will find a variety of craft ideas, how-to's, and links here at The Spunky Diva to explore. Hi Friends, I'm Nancy Jacobs from How To Homemaker and I'm glad to be blogging with you today. I'm a married stay at home mother of three busy teenage children. I love teaching and have done some form of it all my life. That is why How To Homemaker came into existence. I give 'how to' tips almost daily on cooking, cleaning, gardening and all things related to homemaking. I even throw in recipes and crafts. Today I want to talk to you about germs.  I'm not a germ-a-phobe, but I think it just makes sense to use some precaution as well as good hand wash...

I am very happy to have such a special treat for you today!  Tiffany, from Making the World Cuter {where one of the funnest link parties is!} is going to share her Chore System with us.  I know that this is not a "crafty" item, but for anyone with small, medium, or large children how to keep those children motivated tends to be a common topic!  I found her way of handling chores to be very clear, and a great way to set up a system to help your children "get-it".  Plus, making your very own magnet board and chore magnets can be very crafty indeed! ------------------------------------- Hi everyone! My name is Tiffany and I blog over at Making the World Cuter, I would love to have you over! Kimberlee asked me to share my Chore System with her readers, and I was happy to do so. Just know that it is super detailed, and a bit (lot) wordy! :) Do you have a chore system that works well for your kids? Every summer I try something new, new incentives, new jobs, ne...
