JOAN COLLINS BROWN: DIY

Whenever I get frozen yogurt I always add in yogurt chips, its my favorite part. This past weekend my husband and I went out to YogurtLand and while I was drowning my yogurt with yogurt chips my husband looks at me and says, yogurt on yogurt? Haha

So it had me thinking about all the possibilities yogurt really has, I have a really big sweet tooth and although nothing can replace my deep rooted love for chocolate, yogurt chips are a healthier alternative.

My list could go on and on but here are some ways you can incorporate yogurt instead of chocolate: Ice cream topping, Trail mix, Yogurt covered fruit.

Things You Need:

1. Your Choice In Yogurt

(I picked Greek Yogurt: Honey&Vanilla) It's my Favorite

Vanilla or Strawberry would be really yummy also

2.Ziploc Bag

(If you have an actual frosting bag you can use it)

3. A tray

(I would recommend a nonstick pan)

4. Freezer

5. A pair of scissors

Directions:

1.Add your choice of Yogurt in the Ziploc Bag (Do not Fill all the way)

2. Cut a small hole to Ziploc bag, on the tip where you will squeeze the yogurt out.

3. Proceed to squeeze the yogurt onto your tray (your choice of size)

4. Place tray in freezer, leave over night.

5. Remove chips and enjoy!

Lately I've been checking out a lot of detox juices and it sounds so great for my body to detox especially now after the holidays but what doesn't sound so great is the price. It can run almost $200 for a three day detox, so I found an at home alternative that won't hurt my bank account and actually works!

What You Need:

1. One Lemon

2. One Large Cucumber

3. 11-12 Mint Leaves

4. A pitcher of water

Cut the Lemon and Cucumber into slices and then add all the ingredients into the pitcher before adding the water.

Let it sit over night in the refrigerator of course and then in the morning you are ready to start.. I drink the whole pitcher in a day with each of my meals and start over again once I'm done. I can feel the difference and it taste yummy!

Is there any detox that you do that makes you feel great? I would love to know

Enjoy the easy detox and let me know how it works for you!

Thanks for stopping by,

Who loves Anthropologie, raise your hand.. I love everything from their heavenly candles to laidback bohemian clothes & don't get me started on their kitchen items, swoon for days. Chase bought me an apron from Anthro for Christmas last year and I love it so much I don't want to get it dirty (defeats the purpose of an apron huh). Anyways I love Anthro, So I wanted to recreate the Zinc letters they sell which are a great accent for a house. Each letter is $18 dollars & if your looking for their oversized ones those bad boys can set you back $98 dollars each but hey they're cute. Here is my inexpensive DIY Zinc letters.

What You Will Need:

1. Letters: Pick some letters of the word you want. Pick whichever size will look best of your wall.

* I bought mine at a super Walmart for less than $2 dollars each to spell the word 'EAT' to put in my kitchen

2. Spray Paint: Should be a Metallic finish to get the look

* I bought Rust-oleum in Metallic also at a super Walmart for less than $5 dollars

3. You'll need an outside area and some newspaper to place beneath the letters

* Anthropologie Letters

This is how my letters came out, now they're sitting pretty in my kitchen. So easy, cheap, and great décor..

Thanks For Stopping By
XOXO, JB
