Huckleberry BBQ Sauce

Avocado Goat Cheese Dressing

You know- this time of year we are grilling quite a bit. That means that we are going through quite a bit of sauces & dips for all that charbroiled goodness. Living here in North Idaho one of the things that you find a lot is huckleberry flavored things. They grow in abundance around these parts – however most people who pick them are very tight lipped about where they go. They have their favorite places & they don’t share that spot with anyone – except the bears. So I decided just to buy some- even though they are crazy expensive. One of the first things I decided to make with them was this Huckleberry BBQ Sauce. You see- homemade bbq sauce is just perfect for people like us who are grilling so often. I think I need to make this particular recipe in abundance & sock pile it in the freezer so we can have it all year long.

A little sweet with a tangy kick makes the perfect sauce for us. This batch won’t last long.

The best part is that it is so quick & easy to make- I may never buy sauce again.

1-1/2 cups ketchup
1/3 cup brown sugar

Convection Cooking Conversion {Printable}

By Kleinworth & Co 4 Comments

If you follow me on Instagram then you probably saw our oven upgrade we added to the house during the building process a couple months ago. We went with the Blue Star slide in because we fell in love with it’s no-frills -get down to real cooking style. I’m talking- there is no clock or timer or the handy little beeper that tells you when your oven has reached it’s set temp. But the things I love about it far outweigh those things. Those little things we had before were easily solved with a little thermometer & a good old fashioned egg timer. So that was simple. But what has taken some getting used to is cooking with convection. We never used convection before & so it’s been quite a learning curve. However- now that I have down all the quirks & tricks – I absolutely love it. I feel like my cooking is far more efficient & things are turning out better than ever. Buuuuutttttttt – I thought that you all might really like the quick Convection Cooking Conversion Printable I created & added to the inside of our spice cabinet for quick reference.

I hope this helps you as much as it’s helped me!

If you cook with convection then you know how great it can be once you get it down.

Caramel Macchiato Pudding Pops

Toasted Coconut Banana Ice Cream

You all know how much I love coffee. I start my morning with a huge 28 ounce mug. In the summer I like to sip on iced coffee all day long. So it should come as no surprise that I found a way to make my dessert with coffee too. These Caramel Macchiato Pudding Pops turned out so good. Just the perfect thing to enjoy on the porch in the warm summer evenings.

So incredibly simple to make. Pudding & this YUMMY Caramel Macchiato Iced Coffee & a little patience while I waited for them to freeze. That was all I needed for these & I was in iced coffee heaven.

Like I mentioned earlier this week, it’s sort of nice to have a few little treats around here that I don’t have to share with the kids. I love having a little goodie just for the hubs & I.

I so love easy recipes – especially in the summer.

It’s so nice to not have to spend all day in the kitchen. Just pour, whisk & freeze. That’s all it takes.

Caramel Macchiato Ice Cream

By Kleinworth & Co 6 Comments

Sometimes it’s the simplest of things that make life sweet. I was wanting to whip up something with some leftover iced coffee that I had on hand & I was racking my brain on what on earth to do with it. I didn’t want to toss it but it was getting close to the use by date. Then as I was sorting through the bags & bags of frozen bananas in the freezer it hit me! Caramel iced coffee in a dairy free ice cream would be fantastic! In just a couple minutes dairy free Caramel Macchiato Ice Cream was born.

Really- it doesn’t get any easier. We topped this with a few crunched up Oreos & chocolate syrup. So tasty. This was a little snack reserved for just the hubs & I- since it contains iced coffee. It was nice to have a little something I didn’t have to share with the kids.

Caramel Macchiato Ice Cream

Ingredients

5 frozen bananas
1 cup Caramel Macchiato Iced Coffee of your choice

Instructions

Place both ingredients in blender & blend on high until smooth & creamy

Chocolate Date Bars

Raspberry-Pineapple Frozen Fruit Pops

Now that we are all moved & somewhat settled – we are back on our normal gym schedule. It feels really good to get back into our regular routine. One new thing I am happy to be doing is making our own snacks. I have discussed before that I am now well over a year of making nothing but homemade breakfasts for the kids. Well we have branched into beyond breakfast & I am experimenting with protein bars to have as a snack before heading to the gym. One of our favorites lately – these Chocolate Date Bars. You would never guess that they are dairy free, packed full of protein & good for you because they are just so tasty. I feel like I’m having a treat. Let me show you just how easy they are to make.

These whip up in just a few minutes – no baking.

Just process, press into the pan & freeze for about 15 minutes. Simple!

The kids love these – I ended up having to make a second batch right away because these were gone in minutes.

Even with a busy as life gets – you don’t have to compromise maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Recipes like these make it easy.

I love that they are dairy free – everyone in the house can enjoy.

There are so many varieties of Silk Almond Milk now too.

Strawberry Lemon Sorbet

By Kleinworth & Co 3 Comments

Have got the perfect sweet treat to share with you all today!! My FABULOUS contributor Claire is back today to share with you all a super tasty way to use all those summer strawberries AND cool off while doing it. Now I’m off to make my own Strawberry Lemon Sorbet & sit on my new porch to enjoy it. Check it out & then head on over & give another hello to Claire!

Hello again Kleinworth & Co. readers! I’m Claire from The Simple, Sweet Life, and I’m here to share another sweet recipe with you! I don’t know how the rest of you are fairing, but I’m here in Oregon visiting family and it is HOT. Like, too-hot-to-turn-your-oven-on hot! But not to worry! Today I have a sweet treat that will allow you to use some of that wonderful, in-season fruit, it doesn’t require any fancy machine to make it, AND it’ll cool you down!

Print Recipe

Strawberry Lemon Sorbet

Ingredients

Yields 3 cups of sorbet

1 cup water
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp. fresh lemon zest
1 1/2 cup fresh diced strawberries
1 tbsp. orange juice

Instructions

Start by heating your water and granulated sugar in a medium-sized saucepan.
Bring it to a simmer, stirring occasionally until the sugar completely dissolves.
Pour your syrup into bowl or glass (I recommend a glass measuring cup for easy measuring later) and chill in the refrigerator until cold.
In the meantime, you can puree your diced strawberries with your orange juice until smooth, and then strain them through a sieve to remove any excess pulp.
Since we're making a swirled sorbet, you'll need two containers for the first round of freezing (I used two 1-quart containers).
In one container, combine your lemon juice, zest, and half of the syrup (approximately 3/4 cup).
In the other container, combine your strawberry puree and the rest of the syrup.
Cover both and freeze for 4 hours.
After 4 hours, remove each from the freezer, blend each separately until smooth and slightly lighter in color (either a blender or an electric hand mixer works well for this)
Combine in a 1-quart container in layers.
Drag a butter knife through your layers to get a swirl effect.
Return your sorbet to the freezer and chill until firm (preferably overnight).
Recipe adapted from Better Homes and Gardens' Eating Fresh 2014

Thank you so much Claire!!! I just LOVE this tasty treat!

Metallic Hutch Make Over

By Kleinworth & Co 7 Comments

Disclosure: This blog has been compensated with product by Modern Masters to facilitate this post. All opinions are my own.

You remember a while back when I attended the SNAP! Conference. While I was there I had the ABSOLUTE PLEASURE of connecting with the team from Modern Masters. You see- for a long time now I have been dreaming of painting all sorts of things in metallic paints. I have a thing for the shimmer & sparkle, what can I say. So when I found Modern Masters there at SNAP I was beyond thrilled (complete understatement) to find that metallic paint does in fact exist & comes in all the colors I could dream of. Knowing that at the time our house was about 50% done- I was practically squealing when I was playing with the demos they had there. I’m pretty sure they thought I was nuts. But really – being able to paint on shimmer just excites me beyond belief. So once I got home they were nice enough to send me my own samples to play with on a smaller project before I tackle something like my studio wall. So I did a little Metallic Hutch Make Over & I’m loving it!

I decided it was time to give the old hutch that my mom gave me new look. I had been looking at this hutch in it’s very country type look since I was probably about 7-8 years old. This thing had worn this look for far too long.

(Check out my new studio space. I’m so thrilled I can finally do projects like this in my nice bright & spacious area – inside. Don’t mind the junk in the back – I tackled this project just days after we moved in. It’s all perfect & pretty now. I’ll be sharing that later.)

I started with a coat of primer. So much easier than sanding the whole thing.

I couldn’t help myself – I had to get a little macro of the paintbrush.

These were the metallic colors I chose to work with for this. Champagne & Oyster.

I didn’t have enough to do the whole hutch in metallic -so I used the taupe (called Monk’s Cloth # MSL097) that our doors are painted in for the base shade.

Normally I would have started with the large areas I wanted one color. But I wanted to see just how much I could stretch the metallic colors – so I started with those areas first. So the fronts of the doors, the drawer fronts & the top drawers I painted with champagne. Then I had a little more so I added it to the top of the open area too.

Then I added the Monk’s Cloth on everything else. Then I added the oyster in a light coat over the champagne to give it more iridescence. Let it dry & placed my glass back in the doors.

This is where I store my food props in my studio.

I’m loving the fresh look & the shimmer makes me smile every time I look at it.

Check out all the GREAT ideas & get inspired over at Modern Masters!

Coastal Decor {Living Room Reveal}

By Kleinworth & Co 10 Comments

For months I have been searching Pinterest for decorating ideas & inspiration knowing that I’d finally be able to decorate our new living room. Having a clean slate for decorating gave us the opportunity to change things up. The entire 5 months we waited for the house to be completed we planned on what we would do once we finally moved in. After 18 years together & almost all of that time looking at the same old rustic decor that we had collected to accent our family antiques – we were VERY ready for a change. We decided on a coastal decor feel for many reasons. One being that I grew up on the beaches of So Cal & he grew up vacationing there. We met while both living at the beach – so it’s only fitting that it’s a huge part of our lives- even if we live in North Idaho. The other reason is that my mom’s place is decorated in a very beachy, coastal decor. Now that I will slowly be transitioning all her things from So Cal to our home- it will all blend nicely with what we have in place now. I have always loved how she had her place decorated & it’s comforting to have a home that I know she would have loved.

So – while we still have a LOT of fine tuning & larger project decorating to do, this is our Coastal Decor {Living Room Reveal} (3 weeks after moving in). I am sure I will be sharing updates as we get things more dialed in.

Here is what it looked like our first night after getting the keys. We basically had been shopping for about a month straight & collecting everything in our garage of our rental. We signed papers, went out & did a little more shopping – until our truck couldn’t hold any more stuff & waited for our keys. Once we had them we started taking over all our new finds & then crashed at our new house before tackling the moving truck the next day.

It’s amazing how $20 for a bucket & a couple bouquets of dried pieces can bring so much visual interest & texture to a room.

I’m BIG on texture.

One of the very first things we did was take out the cheap, builder grade ceiling fan & install this one that suits the room far better.

I have plans for doing something to this coffered ceiling to make it more interesting.

Again with the texture. The hubs has a thing for cat tails – so we have been adding them all around the house & in the planter beds.

This old antique lantern was the typical red. It totally fit our rustic decor for many years. Then it was like 11 pm & we were sifting through things & the hubs looked at me & says “hey- what if we paint this turquoise?” SURE!!! We went outside right then & there & did a little late night DIY-ing. I’m sure the neighbors thought we were nuts spray painting in the yard at 11 o’clock. But sometimes you just have to do it when you are inspired to do it. 🙂

This lamp originally had a dark red lampshade on it. It was a favorite of the hubs. I was ready to just hide it in the closet so I didn’t have to look at it anymore. I am SO OVER the deep red decor from all these years. So I happened to be in Walmart without him & saw this on on clearance for $7. I grabbed it & didn’t consult him. Turned out he loved it & I was able to say “buy-buy” to the red shade & keep the lamp after all.

This boat is actually one of those little shelves. It worked great in our rustic cabin theme.

But you know- it works quite well filled with starfish, textured balls, glass buoys & other coastal decor too.

The mantle. I did these pics of the kids years ago – yes I really need to do a new photo shoot with them.

The corn husk wreath was the right texture & colors as were the corn husk luminaries I shared a while back.

Just a couple new things – the sea horses & metal orbs. The rest I had already been using- but adding the new colors & pieces gave it a fresh look.

So there you have it – so far. Now that we have been here for about 3 weeks & things are in place & can finally start looking at the house more from a designer perspective beyond just unpacking. I think after dealing with moss green & burnt orange walls in our cabin rental- I may be leaving the walls cream for a while.

Still to do – the coffered ceiling like I mentioned before. We added wood blinds in the same shade of grey in the stone work. Nicer look than white but less darkening than if we had gone with the same dark shade as the hard floors in the rest of the house. Still have to decide on draperies. We added lots of windows after living in that dark cabin. I don’t want to hinder any light- so still pondering that one. I also need to decide how to punch up the impact for above the mantle. Any suggestions???

Also – will be working on a painting with my daughter for above my chair.

Just avoiding going into Michael’s for a canvas – I never walk out of there without a full cart.

Sour Berry Fizz

By Kleinworth & Co 5 Comments

I have to say – it’s actually a little bit on the hot side here in CDA. I never really thought I would say that after living near Death Valley for so long. Don’t get me wrong – nothing compares to that kind of heat. 125 is just plain miserable. But we have actually flirted with 100 here- which seems strange here in North Idaho. So I am super happy that we splurged on A.C. for the house so I don’t have to suffer for these couple weeks a year that it gets uncomfortable. But that doesn’t mean that I have forgotten how to cool off in the summer. All those years of desert life has given me oodles of refreshing recipes to share with you all for years & years. 🙂 Like this Sour Berry Fizz for example – the perfect beverage to help you cool down on those super hot summer days.

This was a drink we would whip up before heading out to cool down by the pool. So refreshing.

Berries & sour together – YUM! Then adding the ginger ale gives the perfect fizz!

This is such a great party beverage! Your guests will LOVE IT!

S’Mores Bars

By Kleinworth & Co 9 Comments

Oh good heavens! I think I made the family’s new favorite treat. These S’Mores Bars are so incredibly easy to make & they were gone in record time. It seems that with all the campfire fun happening during the summer, S’Mores are just a summertime staple. But when you live with the fire chief – not only are fires in the summer a big “no-no”… but time to vacation & get out to have those opportunities in the summer months just don’t happen for us. So rarely do we make things like S’Mores – until now. All the yummy flavors you love about S’mores – no campfire required!

These whip up in less than 5 minutes & the set time in the freezer is quick too.

Just those 3 simple ingredients that we all LOVE!

I think next time I will double the recipe.

Print Recipe

S’Mores Bars

Ingredients

1-1/2 cups milk chocolate chips or candy melts
1 tbsp shortening only if you are using chocolate chips
3-1/2 cups mini marshmallows

Melt your chocolate in double boiler until it's smooth & silky

Remove & cut into squares - serve.

Restaurant Style Refried Beans

By Kleinworth & Co 18 Comments

It’s warm now. Not quite as warm as say…when we lived so close to Death Valley. But for this area- it’s comfortably warm. So I’m starting to pull out all my “no-bake” recipes again. Looking for Easy Family Dinner Ideas? I love utilizing my crock pot during the warmer months. I want to be enjoying these gorgeous days – not slaving away in the kitchen. One thing that we make a lot of is this recipe for Restaurant Style Refried Beans. We use them in tacos, enchiladas, tostadas & then on the side of so many other things too.

It’s SO easy to make. Just throw it all in the slow cooker & blend at the end of cooking. They taste amazing – just like what you get in the restaurant (so much better than canned). Best part – no preservatives.

We make this recipe at least once a week.

I’m sure you will find yourself making these again & again.

Oatmeal Cookie Overnight Oats

By Kleinworth & Co 8 Comments

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Silk for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

My kids have a new favorite breakfast. Overnight oats. It’s so easy – my son & I prepare the jars the night before & when they all get up in the morning they just grab one. They no longer have to wait to all have breakfast together. It’s all done & ready to go. So you can imagine we have been trying all sorts of different ways to make it to find our favorites. My son- being the biggest cinnamon fanatic in the house – is really partial to this Oatmeal Cookie Overnight Oats recipe. It’s loaded with cinnamon, dairy free with the addition of Silk® Almond Milk Protein + Fiber & packed full nutrients that keeps them all going all day long.

Just add the ingredients to the jar – give it a good shake & refrigerate until morning. I told you it was simple.

We like to add a little granola with raisins on top of this one to really give it that Oatmeal Cookie flavor.

It’s great to use the Silk® Almond Milk Protein + Fiber for this because making it dairy free means that everyone in the house can enjoy it.

Tropical Cream Slushie

These hot summer days sure do call for a cool down. It’s this time of the summer when the heat has been around for a bit that I start really craving the tropical drinks. Whenever we dine out I always order something with coconut, because you all know just how much I love coconut. It certainly makes me think of when we go on vacation back home to the beach. Since we won’t be heading back home any time soon, I decided to take my favorite flavor & make a truly delectable beverage that everyone can enjoy.

Not only is this super tropical with the coconut added to the lime juice & coconut sparkling water – but adding the International Delight Sweet Cream Creamer gives it that pretty blended drink look & taste that just makes it irresistible.

This really does taste like vacation in a tall refreshing glass.

Garnish with either a lemon or lime. I love the color of the lime popping against the crushed ice & cream.

I definitely like my food & drink to be pretty & visually exciting. These certainly fit that.

Picture serving these at your next summer party! Make a few pitchers & you will make everyone happy.

Crazy Taco Faces: A Toasted Tortilla Treat Kids Will Love

Tropical Turtle Beach Jello Cups

Hi everyone!!! Looking for Easy Family Dinner Ideas? I’m so thrilled to have Carrie back today. I am always so inspired by how fun she makes mealtime & this recipe is no exception. She has made these Crazy Taco Faces that are just so adorable. Check them out!! Thanks Carrie!!

Hello, Kleinworth & Co Readers! I’m Carrie, from Kenarry: Ideas for the Home back again to share another fun food idea you can make with your kids. At our house, Tuesday dinner is typically “Taco Tuesday”, but we like to mix it up by offering a wide variety of Mexican dishes in addition to traditional tacos. Some weeks we have enchiladas; some weeks we have fish tacos; and some weeks we have shredded beef tortilla wraps. Anything of that genre is fair game for “Taco Tuesday” at our house, so you can imagine how delighted my kids were when we decided to make Crazy Taco Faces one Tuesday for dinner.

Crazy Taco Faces are a creative twist on traditional soft tacos. You and your kids will have a blast using olives, grape tomatoes, shredded carrots and taco sauce to make silly faces. If your family prefers crispier tacos, I would suggest you spritz or lightly brush all of the corn tortillas with olive oil and bake at 375 degrees for 4-5 minutes before you begin assembling the Crazy Taco Faces. This will make the corn tortillas crispier from the beginning. Otherwise, they tend to get soft once you add the beans, meat and cheese.

How to Make Crazy Taco Faces
What You Need:

6-inch corn tortillas
1 pound of ground beef or turkey
1 chopped onion (optional)
1 packet of taco seasoning
Water
1 can of refried beans
2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
Black olives
Shredded carrots
Grape tomatoes
Shredded romaine lettuce
Taco sauce

Instructions:

1. Prepare the ground beef or turkey. In a large pan on the stove, brown the ground beef or turkey. Throw in a chopped onion if you choose. Once the meat is browned, add the packet of taco seasoning and water (per the instructions on the packet).

2. Create the first layer. Use cooking spray to lightly grease a large baking sheet. I also like to line the baking sheet with foil before I spray it to make clean-up after dinner a little easier. Place tortillas on the baking sheet for as many Crazy Taco Faces as you plan to make. Spread a thin layer of refried beans on each of the tortillas. You can skip the refried beans if you don’t care for them, but the refried beans really help the Crazy Taco Faces stick together.

3. Add ground meat. Spoon the seasoned taco meat on top of the refried beans for each of the Crazy Taco Faces.

4. Sprinkle with cheese. Shredded cheese also helps the Crazy Taco Faces to stick together, so liberally add cheese to each of the tortillas. We used mozzarella since that’s what we had on hand, but any shredded cheese will work for the inside of the Crazy Taco Faces.

5. Top with another tortilla and bake. Place a tortilla on top of each of the Crazy Taco Faces. Bake at 375 degrees for 5 minutes or until the cheese starts to melt inside the Crazy Taco Faces.

6. Add more cheese. Carefully remove the Crazy Taco Faces from the oven. The corn tortillas may have started to turn up at the edges, so gently push the edges back down. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella on top of each tortilla. Again, any cheese will work here as long as it’s the same color (e.g. I wouldn’t use a colby jack blend or something two-toned for this part). Return the Crazy Taco Faces to the oven and bake for another five minutes until the cheese starts to melt.

7. Add eyes and noses. Now is the fun part. Create faces by using black olives for eyes, half a grape tomato for a nose and shredded carrots for eyebrows. We returned ours to the oven for another 4 minutes but if they’re hot enough to you, you could move on to the next step.

8. Put on a happy face. Put taco sauce in a resealable bag, then cut off a small corner of the bag. Use the bag to creatively decorate your Crazy Taco Faces with smiles, frowns, or jagged monster grins.

9. Transfer the Crazy Taco Faces to plates and serve. Use a large spatula to move the Crazy Taco Faces from the baking sheet on to a plate. Top those silly guys and gals with shredded lettuce for hair before serving.

Crazy Taco Faces makes a fun family dinner or a heavier snack if you’ve got leftover taco meat in the fridge from another meal. They’d also work great with shredded chicken or fish. If you’re a vegetarian you can skip the meat altogether and just go with the refried beans. No matter how you change them up, one thing is for certain — when your kids see this meal, they’re going to smile as big as these Crazy Taco Faces!

Are you ready for a cool down? Yeah- I thought so. Now that it’s mid summer I thought I would share with you this Coconut Raspberry Slush. It’s a quick & simple slushie recipe that will have everyone raving til’ fall. We spent so many years in the heat of the desert that I have an over abundance of cool treat recipes to share with you all. I never seem to run out. We lived in various parts of Nevada for 12 long years. It’s warm there starting in March & doesn’t really get comfortable again until November. So that’s a whole lot of cool treats to keep us comfortable. This slushie is definitely one of our favorites.

I love the ease of this recipe. Everyone (kiddos included) can enjoy & it’s so easy that they can make it themselves too.

I love that it’s packed full of great raspberry flavor – so pretty too.

Just look at that great color!! This just makes me happy & is sure to be a crowd pleaser at every party! The kids LOVE it!

Camera Phone Tips – Urban Jungle vs. Green Jungle

Rock your Camera Phone

I have really enjoyed being able to bring you all some photography tips here every so often & I am so grateful that my wonderful photographer friends have been here to share all their tips as well. Today my friend Tamar is back to share some insight to her amazing camera phone photography! Check it out & rock your camera phone too!

Hi everyone. So happy to be back here at Kleinworth & Co. sharing another post with you today. I have another post about using your iPhone to capture what’s around you.

Last weekend, I was visiting my mom in NY. We spent a day in the city, seeing a show, and walking around. I enjoyed capturing the city with my phone, I find that the phone is a great way to capture the urban landscape without looking too touristy (the horror) with my big camera. Then, I just use a variety of apps to touch up the shots

After a day in NYC and some trips into the heart of downtown Boston this past week, I was thinking about the urban landscape. The jungle of the urban hustle and bustle. The noise, the hard lines from the buildings, and miles of sidewalks and streets.

Don’t get me wrong, I love living in a city, but I find it is nature in and around a city that makes a city livable, in my humble opinion.

So, after a few doses of urban jungle, I was craving some time in the green jungle. Last weekend, I drove about 15 minutes outside of town to a nature reserve and spent a few hours hiking. Again, I captured a bunch of pictures of the landscapes, with only my iPhone. It’s the perfect hiking companion: GPS and a camera – perfect, and no fear of losing or hurting my big DSLR.

And, after a few hours in the green jungle on a nice July day, I was super appreciative of my nice urban apartment with air conditioning and no bugs.

As I drove home, I realized, what I always tell people “it’s parks and greenery, which make it possible for me to live in a city” is true. Being able to escape into the green jungle, clear my head, and explore is just what I need sometimes!

So next time you find yourself in an urban jungle or out in a more natural jungle, don’t forget that your phone could help you capture the beauty, natural or constructed, that is all around you!

Great tips & insight Tamar!!! It really is more about rocking the camera you have in your hand at the time. No matter what it is.

Chalkboard Mini Frames

Summer Anchor Chalkboard Art

Happy day!!! I’m so excited today because my dear friend Ariean is here to share with you all these really adorable Chalkboard Mini Frames that would look so great with the new colors in our home. It’s like she knew exactly what I needed to add to my home & gave me some wonderful inspiration. Thank you Ariean!! Check out this really fun project!

Hi there Friends! It’s Ariean from OneKriegerChick here to share how I gave my boring storage baskets a fun and pretty update with Chalkboard Mini-Frames.

I have had these plain baskets sitting on top of my fridge for ages. One contains chips and pretzels and the other has treats (leftover candy I don’t want the kids to reach), but I was the only one who could ever tell which was which. Plus, they were just boring and needed some color.

So, I painted them turquoise. First, I painted them white, then added a coat of turquoise chalk paint. I finished them off by sanding them with sandpaper to distress the edges and giving them a coat of clear wax to bring out the color and texture.

Now to make them pretty…

I cut a section of chalkboard vinyl and taped it to the back of the frame using a strong tape like duct tape. Only tape the sides and bottom of the vinyl. The top needs to be left open for the next step. If you don’t have chalkboard vinyl, just paint a piece of heavyweight paper or cardboard with chalkboard paint.

Run a length of ribbon through the top of the frame as shown.

This is why you don’t tape the top of the vinyl.

Add labels with a chalkboard marker. This can actually be done before taping the vinyl to the frame…up to you! I wrote my lettering out with regular chalk first, then traced over it with my chalk marker.

And that’s it! Now I have pretty and organized baskets with no questions as to what they contain.

Bubblegum Milkshake

By Kleinworth & Co 4 Comments

When I was a kid I always looked forward to summer because that was when Bubblegum Ice Cream became available. You see- where I was, they didn’t want kids chewing gum in school- so they didn’t offer bubblegum ice cream during the regular school year. Jump ahead to now- when I can literally get bubblegum ice cream whenever I want & it still brings back all those nostalgic memories of those special summer childhood days. My confession is that I originally set out to make my own bubblegum ice cream as I have been making all sorts of homemade ice cream flavors. However- my original recipe flopped. I was super bummed – the flavor was good – it just didn’t set up. Sooooo- I decided to use what I had & add some ingredients & turn it into this GREAT Bubblegum Milkshake.

All the wonderful flavor of bubblegum ice cream in a shake!

It had been so long since I tasted that wonderful flavor. It really is every bit as tasty as I remember.

Look at that pink color- it makes me smile!!!

Summer Anchor Chalkboard Art

By Kleinworth & Co 3 Comments

Hi everyone!!!! Are you enjoying summer?? I am!! We are in full decorating mode & our décor has changed from rustic cabin to a more beachy, relaxed feel. Which is why I was so excited when my FABULOUS contributor Sarah created this Summer Anchor Chalkboard Art to share with you all here today! I just love it!!!

Hey I’m Sarah, I blog over at Creative Ramblings, and I’m happy to be back here at Kleinworth and Co. sharing a piece of chalkboard art with you.

If you are a crafter of any kind you probably have a stash of half done projects and thrift store finds just waiting for your attention. Or at least I hope I’m not the only one! I keep most of my big projects in my garage on a shelving unit. I was clearing off the top shelf this week and stumbled across a piece of MDF about 14 x 19 that I had painted with chalk paint last summer. I had cut this piece of wood and painted the wrong piece by accident. I stuck it up on the shelf (then painted the correct piece) and moved on.

Now that I had it in hand I knew I needed to do something with it. I decided to create a summer piece for my mantle. I do enjoy summer but I do not decorate for it specifically. My mantle has not changed much since spring so this piece would serve as a little update.

I chose to use an anchor and a verse from Hebrews, something that lends itself to the season but also something I could keep around throughout the year. I am not a free hand artist by any means, but love the look of chalk art. To accomplish the look I created a stencil.

Using my Silhouette I designed and cut out my stencil on cardstock. You could get the same effect using store-bought stencils or cutting your own with a craft knife.

To prep the chalkboard I seasoned the “fresh” paint by rubbing a piece of chalk over it and erasing it.

I lightly taped my stencil to the chalkboard. There were some gaps but I wanted this to look semi-hand drawn so a few imperfections were fine.

To achieve crisp lettering i used a chalk marker. These write like a marker but dry like chalk and erase with a wet cloth. I used regular blue and yellow chalk to add a few pops of color as well.

This simple piece updates my mantle just enough for summer. I am so happy I found this leftover piece, it’s a really good size and I can update it come fall with a new graphic!

How are you decorating this summer? Have you used any nautical items?
