“I stress … the deep need each woman has to study the scriptures. We want our homes to be blessed with sister scriptorians—whether you are single or married, young or old, widowed or living in a family. After all, who has any greater need to ‘treasure up’ the truths of the gospel (on which they may call in their moments of need) than do women and mothers who do so much nurturing and teaching?”

President Spencer W. Kimball

real simple

Some of you might think of getting crafty as we start into the holiday season (halloween costumes, fall decor, christmas gifts etc.)... Here are a few tips to "simplify" the process!
*Sharpen your scissors by cutting sand paper.
*Place a little bit of Vaseline to the end of your glue gun to get rid of those long glue strings.
*Soak your paint brushes in fabric softener or hair conditioner for 10 min…cleans right off!
*Need to create a large pattern? Use newspapers!
*Keeping a magnet close by makes picking up those sewing pins a cinch!
*Store those pipe cleaners for kid’s crafts inside of a paper towel tube.
*Break up some styrofoam to create snow for craft projects.
