How To: Baby Leg Warmers

Everybody and their dogs babies are sporting the new fall fashion must have: baby leg warmers. I love them but I'm not going to pay $8-$15 for them. I found this on the internet.

The solution to my cheap thrifty ways!

I had an unused pair of fun tube socks lying around so I dusted off the old sewing machine and went to town.

Here is the finished product. Now I just need bugsy to wake up so she can try them on. If this works, mommy is headed to Target for $1 socks!

------UPDATE------

Well, Chloe bug woke up and tried on her warmers. Not too shabby for our first attempt that took less than 5 minutes. I'll have more to show off later.

I Hate Credit Cards!!

I was watching the Today show this morning and they shared this handy bit of information!

You know those annoying pre-approved credit card offers you get in the mail? I get a ridiculous amount...more than one a day. Grrrr. You can reduce the number that gets sent to you by going here.

You can opt out of pre-screened offers for five years via the Internet or permanently via snail mail. You can also 'opt in' if you change your mind. It's hard to believe that would ever happen.

I just thought a few of you might benefit from this information.
