Free Printable Box Tops™ Collection Jar for your fridge

by Freebies4Mom on August 14, 2019 3:55 pm

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of General Mills®. The opinions and text are all mine.

I made a free printable Box Tops™ for Education Jar for you to stick on your fridge to help you remember to clip and collect Box Tops™ for Education. After printing you can slide it inside an 8 1/2 x 11 clear sheet protector and then use tape or magnets to stick it on the door of your fridge. It’s an easy way to keep Box Tops™ collection a priority in your kitchen! Keep an eye out for Box Tops while grocery shopping

We are filling up our shopping cart at Walmart with participating Box Tops™ for Education products from General Mills® that include breakfast foods, after school snacks and easy dinners. I’ve taught my kids to keep an eye out for the pink and yellow Box Tops™ for Education labels on products so that our normal grocery purchases can help their Elementary School.

My kids are in charge of clipping Box Tops™ from product packages and then placing them in our printable Box Tops™ Jar on the fridge. Since we see the collection jar every day, it’s a great reminder to keep an eye out for Box Tops™ on product packages before we recycle them. Over this summer, we have collected 96 Box Tops™ which is $9.60 for our school (each one is worth 10 cents). How many have you collected over the summer?

It’s good to know how your school is using the Box Tops™ for Education labels to fund what they need. Our elementary school uses the Box Tops™ money to buy new library books. Do you know what your school is using their Box Tops™ money for? Every school is different because they receive the Box Tops™ money as cash and can choose how to best spend it. Even if your school does not collect Box Tops™, there is probably a school in your community that does. There are over 80,000 K-8 schools participating in this loyalty program. Learn more about collecting Box Tops™ for Education in my other post about it.

What are your tips for collecting more Box Tops™? Post a comment and tell me!

I needed new shampoo so I’m trying the Suave Professionals Almond + Shea Butter Shampoo because it’s infused with 100% natural almond and shea butter and it smells amazing!

The AXE Ice Chill Body Spray is something new and it’s so amazing that it actually cools your skin down by 11 degrees in addition to giving you 48-hour odor protection. My husband was so excited to try it during this super hot Houston summer.

The Caress Daily Silk Body Wash is my favorite right now because of it’s delicate white peach and orange blossom fragrance. My skin feels so soft after using it which is perfect for the summer when I usually wear shorts and tank tops.

PEEPS® Strawberry Pistachio Cupcakes Easter Recipe

by Freebies4Mom on March 28, 2019 4:15 pm

I made these Strawberry Pistachio Cupcakes as a fun spring treat! I made this treat easy to make by using cake mixes and Wilton decorating supplies. The PEEPS® look like they want to sit in a nest, so I made a nest with some blue and green edible Easter grass. I’d love for you to Pin It to your Easter or Recipe board! Here’s how I made these cupcakes:

Strawberry Pistachio Cupcakes

Author:

Heather Hernandez of Freebies4Mom.com

Serves: 24

Prep time: 10 mins

Cook time: 20 mins

Total time: 30 mins

Spring flavors make these cupcakes a favorite for Easter!

Ingredients

Yellow Cake Mix
Strawberry Cake Mix
Pistachio Instant Pudding (3.4 oz)
Water (as needed for 2 boxes of cake mix)
Oil (as needed for 2 boxes of cake mix)
Eggs (as needed for 2 boxes of cake mix)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray two cupcake pans with no-stick cooking spray with flour.
Follow cake mix directions to prepare Yellow Cake Mix in one bowl and Strawberry Cake Mix in a second bowl.
Pour half of the Yellow Cake Mix into a third bowl.
Beat in the Pistachio Instant Pudding into the third bowl.
Drop spoonfuls of cake batter into the cupcake pans, alternating between the three flavors.
Bake for time indicated on the cake mix directions.
Cool then decorate.

I used Wilton products to help me decorate my Strawberry Pistachio Cupcakes. I used edible Easter grass for the PEEPS® to nest in. I used a Wilton 1M decorating tip to apply green and pink frosting to my cupcakes. It was my first time to use the Wilton Royal Icing Mix and Wilton Icing Colors and I loved that the icing dries hard and it’s easy to get just the right color using the concentrated gel colors.

My photo below shows how I spooned each of the three cake mixes into the cupcake pan to achieve the marbled cupcake above. Next time I won’t fill the cupcake pan as full with batter because my cupcake tops baked right into each other. I didn’t use baking cups in my Wilton cupcake pan because they release so easily after baking it’s just not needed! But I did put my cupcakes in pink and green baking cups after I baked them so I’d get a pretty contrast to the Wilton Cupcake Wraps that look like white picket fences.

DIY Christmas Centerpiece – Bundt Pan Candle Holder

by Freebies4Mom on December 19, 2018 7:45 pm

DIY Christmas Centerpiece - Bundt Pan Candle Holder

Here’s a table centerpiece that you can make with things you probably already have in your house! Do you have a bundt pan? I love the way bundt pans look so I’ve got them displayed on the top of my china hutch in my dining room. I wanted to make a new centerpiece for our Christmas table by using my bundt pan and sticking a taper candle inside. It turns out that the small hole in the bundt pan is the perfect size for a taper candle to stand up in. Add some fresh cranberries to help support that taper candle and wrap it with any type of green garland. I used the holly garland that I use on my fireplace mantel.

I was shocked that I put this centerpiece together in about 5 minutes and created something completely new for the center of our dining room table. I love the way the candlelight reflects off the bundt pan! At first glance it doesn’t even look like a bundt pan because the cranberries are spilling out of the center. Since I’m using fresh cranberries, I can only use this centerpiece for a few days (those cranberries will wither and mold). As an alternative you could use fake cranberries.

What type of Christmas Centerpiece are you making for your table?
