Break the crayons of your color choice into small pieces...drop in bulb, heat with hair dryer and swirl until completely coated. Simple, cute!!!

DIY Acrylic Paint Ornaments
What you need:
clear ornaments
acrylic paint
Remove top of ornament
Holding ornament at an angle, squeeze acrylic paint into ornament until you see a stripe down the side to the bottom.
Turn ornament 45 degrees and repeat.
Do the same with other colors you may want to add, get creative but most of all have fun!
Fill in any blank spots on the ornament by tipping it so that the accumulated paint at the bottom fills in the gaps.
Place ornament upside down to dry for 24 hours before replacing ornament hanger, an empty egg carton or smaller styrofoam cup works well for this.
I like the crayon ones better but we loved these as well!!

Candy Cane Puppy Chow
Ingredients
5 cups Chex cereal (I like the rice one best)
10 ounces of Andes Peppermint Baking Chips
1 cup powdered sugar
6 large peppermint candy canes, crushed
Instructions
Melt the Andes Peppermint Baking Chips in the microwave in a large glass bowl in 20-30 second intervals on half power, stirring between each interval until full melted.
Pour the Chex Cereal into the bowl and stir and fold the cereal and melted baking chips until fully coated.
In a large zip top baggie, pour in the powdered sugar and the crushed candy canes.
Pour in the coated chex cereal.
Seal the baggie and shake vigorously until all the cereal is coated with the sugar and candy canes.
It can keep up to 2 weeks in a sealed container at room temperature!
My update
Yes, it's me!!
The picture on the left is me at my heaviest weight, the middle one is when I started Skinny Fiber and the one on the right was today!! I've always been an emotional eater, and a still birth, miscarriage and a failed marriage took it's toll. I think seeing this picture is what really motivated me to get my behind in gear and make changes. With a lower calorie lifestyle and exercise I began to lose the weight, until I hit the dreaded plateau. Even on a 1200 calorie a day diet with exercise I wasn't dropping the weight, I heard about Skinny Fiber and decided to give it a try, and I am so glad I did I broke the plateau and hit my big goal of 100 lbs lost. I think I became a bit obsessed with the scale lol so I no longer weigh, we will have to wait til the next time I go to the doctor to find that our, but at last count it was 115 lbs total, 50 of that on skinny fiber! It's one of the best decisions I have ever made as far as my journey goes. I still have a bit more I want to lose, but I am so proud of how far I have come!!

Sandra's Newest Update
You are doing so AMAZING hunny!!
I was always overweight growing up. I got married in 1986 and then got pregnant with my child shortly thereafter. I was hefty before, then I gained 60lbs during my pregnancy. After giving birth to my son, I continued to add the weight on. Well, in 1992 I finally decided I was gonna have to do something about my weight. I went on a low-fat diet and began to walk each day. I lost a 100lbs within a year of doing so. In 2002 I went through a horrible divorce (after being married for 16 yrs) so I ended up working two jobs to support me and my son, that left no time for exercise or eating healthy. I began a new relationship in 2005, from 2006-2011 it was a very TOXIC relationship LOADED with STRESS. Of course most of you know that stress ...will work either two ways, lose weight or gain weight, my stressed caused me to gain weight. Plus getting older makes it even harder to lose weight. I had a horrible car accident in 2006 which almost took my arm off. Thank GOD everyday that he saved it for me. But that accident added to the stress as well, it left a huge scar on my arm that took me time to accept. I had to do a reality check, be thankful for what I do have and able to have 90% use of it with a huge scar than not to have it at all. In Jan of 2012, I met the love of my life. No more stress added into my life with bad relationships. In Feb 2013, A friend added me to a weight loss group that was selling skinny fiber there. I kept watching all the testimonies and said I would give it a try. Tried most everything else. Why not! I am so thankful that I did. I have lost 19lbs and 22 inches. It has helped me with insomnia and hormonal issues that kept me from losing weight. So if you are on the fence wondering whether or not to order skinny fiber, IT WORKS. I am so thankful that I found it and for the friend who introduced me to it. www.sbctina.com
