Tutorial Tuesday - Mini Bow Clip

Today's tutorial is another bow tutorial.

Let's face it, it's what I do.
Having a little girl does that to ya!
Sorry if you are bored with them.
But I promise a sewing tutorial for next week! :)

With that promise, let's begin:

Supply List:
{Remember this is enough to make two matching clips}
2 pieces of ribbon cut to 4 inches
2 pieces of ribbon cut to 3 inches
2 pieces of ribbon cut to 2 inches
An Alligator Clip
A Hot Glue Gun

Step 1: Place a small dab of glue inside the top part of the clip,
place one end of the 4 inch ribbon on the glue.
Begin wrapping it around to the top of the clip.

Step 2: Put a dab of glue on the top of the clip and secure the ribbon.

Step 3: Put two small drops of glue inside where the spring is located.
Stuff the ribbon in and secure it in the glue.

Step 4: Glue down the last part of the ribbon to the bottom of the clip.

The bottom of the finished clip will look like this:

Step 6: Now take one of the 3 inch ribbons and place a tiny amount of glue on one end.

Step 7: Wrap it around and form a circle by connecting the other end to the glued end.

Step 8: Place a line of glue inside the circle on the glued seam.
It should look like this:

Step 9: Pinch the ribbon together right over the seam to form a bow.

Step 10: Flip the bow over and put a line of glue on one side of outside seam.

Step 11: Take one of your 2 inch ribbons and place it on the line of glue.
Make sure the patterned side of the ribbon is facing up.

Step 12: Wrap the ribbon around the middle and secure on the other side
to form the middle of your bow.

Step 13: Put glue on the bottom of the bow.

Step 14: Glue it to your ribbon wrapped clip and your done!

Make It Monday - White Fish Tacos

Here we are with my first post of the week!
I am so excited to share more with you, and add more readers and sponsers to my blog!
So please, tell your friends!

Today's recipe is one of my favorites, but I guess they all are or I wouldn't share them!
It is seriously something I crave ALL the time!
It comes from one of my favorite websites.
Give it a try and email me, or send a comment telling me what you think!

White Fish Tacos
**Recipe courtesy of Annie's Eats**

For the fish:
2 tbsp. freshly squeezed lime juice
3 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil, divided
3 tbsp. minced cilantro
¼ tsp. cumin
2 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
1 lb. white fish (halibut, cod, tilapia, etc.)
Salt

Ingredients:

For the cilantro cream sauce:
Juice of 1 lime
2 tbsp. cilantro, minced
6 oz. nonfat greek yogurt (sour cream is fine too)
1 clove garlic, minced
Pepper, to taste

For serving:
Cherry tomatoes, quartered
Green onions, chopped
Red cabbage, shredded
(Or whatever sounds good to you!)
6-inch flour tortillas

Directions:
Combine the lime juice, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, cilantro, cumin, and garlic in a pie plate or shallow dish. Whisk together until well blended. Place the fish in the mixture, turning to coat. Let marinate 15-30 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the cilantro cream sauce. Combine the lime juice, cilantro, greek yogurt, garlic and pepper in a small bowl. Mix until well blended. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Place the fish in the pan and cook without disturbing, 3 minutes. Flip the fish and cook on the second side 2-3 minutes more. Remove to a plate, season with salt as desired, and let rest for a few minutes. Shred the fish into bite-sized pieces with two forks.

Assemble tacos on flour tortillas with shredded fish, cilantro cream sauce and toppings as desired.
