Potato Stamps

Last week we tried our hand at potato stamps.

Have you ever made them?

I remember making them as a child but hadn't ever done them with my littles.

They were a hit!

Basically you just cut a potato in half.

Then with the end of your knife trace a pattern.

After your pattern is traced cut away the potato from the outside of the pattern.

And voila!

I'd like to try them again when the kids are napping and I can concentrate on my cutting :)

They were so excited that it turned into more hacking at my potato than carving.

I'm super excited because next week will hopefully be the launch of the new blog and the shop!

And with that will also start up the new Thrifty Thoughts feature.

My plan is to have a Thrifty Thoughts post once...maybe twice a week.

I am currently making a list of topics to touch base on.

What are some things you'd like to know more about?

I for one would love to know more about couponing...

so I will be having someone who coupons do a guest post on that day :)

Hope the first half of your week was great!

Here's to a great second half and weekend!!!
