autumn bucket list - pizza making







Another thing checked off our autum bucket list :) 
In total the girls and daddy made 6 pizzas, They tucked into the first 3 while the other 3 were cooking. 
No one else likes mushrooms but me so hardly any mushrooms were used :( booo...
Pizza making is so much fun,cheap & easy to do, we'll definitely be making it a regular thing :)
I usually get our pizza bases from the pizza counter in asda but while waiting in the que the woman mentioned you can get a box of 4 smaller ones so I grabbed 2 boxes of those rather than the smallest base they done which is still pretty big.

Bucket list - Making a autumn tealight holder

You'll need
- A jar
- Plenty of leaves
- PVA glue
- Gold glitter paint (optional) 
any extras you wish to add


After seeing a autumn tea light holder on pinterest I think it was I couldn't wait to give it a go with the girls. 
It's the perfect little thing to do this autumn it doesn't take up a huge amount of time and there's hardly any mess unless you wish to add some colour of course, I recommend to use the leaves shortly after you hunted them down, I grabbed some and left them for a few days but they ended being so dried out that they wouldn't stick to the jar at all, So today I grabbed some more on the way home from the school run and they stuck a whole lot better :)  Not only are these perfect for the autumn around the house (the idea is once a tea light is in the jar it will glow all the lovely autumn colours of the leaves) I grab as many colours & shapes of leaves as i can to add some variety. They also make the perfect hand made gifts for nanny/grandmas, aunties/uncles, grandads etc
