Welcome to the fourth edition of my DIY for Dummies list!

Once a year during my annual vacation at Lake Michigan, I take a little break from trying new recipes and instead take a look back at my previous recipes to find some that are simple combinations that only take two ingredients.  It’s a good reminder that often times a do-it-yourself solution doesn’t have to be a big complicated affair – sometimes it’s just a matter of combining a couple things to make what you need.

Here are 10 ideas to check out.  Each one includes the link to the original article for the complete details.  Enjoy!

      When you hover your mouse over the images in my blog posts, a “Pin It” button should appear in the upper left corner of the image which you can use. I just checked and it was appearing for me so I believe it’s working as it should.
