Candy Corn Wreath

I really love hot glue. But what I love more than hot glue is candy corn. I came across this idea for a candy corn wreath from a friend's blog who got the idea from the Woman's Day magazine. 15 hot glue sticks later, two bags of candy corn and a sugar high I had a beautiful wreath to hang on my door. Happy Halloween!!

How to be Inspired

Like many of you I am incredibly busy. As I write this I am procrastinating laundry, homework and even more homework. But even worse than procrastination, one of my biggest struggles is finding an assortment of good meals to cook. I first wanted to do a blog with just meal ideas, but then I realized that there are so many other good ideas to be shared. These include but are not limited to: books, crafts, date ideas, holiday ideas, baking ideas and inspiring words of wisdom. I thought that perhaps us bloggers of the world could post about these ideas on one common blog. This is a way to showcase what YOU have have been baking, cooking, crafting, or thinking about. Of course this will take time, but this is why I can't do it alone.

That is why I am trying to enlist as many people as possible who would love to share their knowledge and ideas. I am looking for various authors. You can post on your area of expertise such as crafting, baking, reading, relaxing, sewing....or whatever else. I just ask that you post at least once a month. This way the blog will be continually updated and it will not be a huge time commitment from anyone of us.

As I write this my thoughts are scattered. Hopefully you can get the gist of what I am trying to accomplish by setting up this blog. If you would like to be an author, add any input or have any feedback leave a comment or email us at abitofinspiration@gmail.com. If you know of anyone else who would love to be involved in this project please let them know. This will be an extraordinary success if we get a plethora of ideas.
