Today's free pattern comes from Crocheting (and Knitting) the Day Away.
This simple little bow can be used for a number of things from a bowtie, to a headband, or even on a hair clip. For the free pattern, just click HERE.
This started out as an outlet to show off my crochet work but hopefully I can transform it into a place where you can not only see my yarn projects but my other adventures in life as well!

Happy Independence Day!
I would like to take a moment to wish you all a Happy Independence Day! Today I am having a sale in my Etsy shop. Use coupon code 4TH2013 to get $4.00 off any purchase of $15.00 or more. Also, for today, as we remember those who are still fighting for our freedom, I am donating 4% from all sales to NCPacks4Patriots to help with the costs of shipping care packages to our troops. The 4% will be donated from both Etsy sales and sales from my Facebook page, Kristin's Kreations. Please help make this sale a success by sharing with all of your friends and family!!

Money-makin' Monday: CashCrate
So awhile back I decided to start a segment of my blog called "Money-makin' Monday". It didn't last very long as I was busy with a baby in the house. Well, I still have kids running all over the place, but I am trying to get back to blogging so that I can share my secrets to making some extra money, as well as other things going on.
Today's money-making opportunity comes from CashCrate. With this site you can make money by completing offers, taking surveys, and shopping online. To begin, click HERE to sign up. As with any of these programs, the more referrals you have, the more money you make. You get paid by check once you make $20.00. One of the easiest ways to earn, is by clicking the "Check In" button each day on the website. Not only do you earn once a day for doing this, but if you click it every single day, you will get a bonus at the end of the month. There is a very high earning potential with CashCrate. Below is an example of one of my checks, as well as a list of all of my earnings. It may not look like a lot of money, but I also don't take as much time on the site like others do. If you visit the Payment Wall on the website, you will see checks that others have received for $100.00 and up. If you have any questions about how the program works, feel free to leave them in the comments.
Have a great Monday...now get out there and start making some money!!

Free Pattern Friday
So I totally forgot about Free Pattern Friday last week! This week let's celebrate March 1 with a St. Patrick's Day theme! Our free pattern today comes from my friend Michelle over at The Perfect Knot. I actually had the opportunity to test the pattern for her Lucky Shamrocks. This pattern is so versatile because you can use thread or any size yarn to make them and you get the option of a 3-leaf shamrock or a 4-leaf clover.

Easy Buffalo Chicken Dip
Here's a recipe my mother introduced me to a couple of years ago. My husband loves it so much that every time I send him grocery shopping he comes home with all of the ingredients.
~1 large can of chicken, drained ~8 oz. cream cheese, softened ~1 cup ranch dressing ~hot sauce ~2 cups grated cheese
First of all, you will drain the canned chicken and mix it with the softened cream cheese.

Then you add in 1 cup of ranch dressing. (This also tastes great with bacon ranch.)

Next you add the hot sauce. You can use Texas Pete, Tabasco, Frank's, or whatever hot sauce you like. I added 1/3 cup but you can use more or less to your taste.

The last thing you will add is 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese.

Spray your pan with cooking spray then pour the mixture into the pan.

Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until bubbly and lightly browned on top.
