When you're looking at pillows this pretty! And these pictures don't do them justice. The first pillow is not as lumpy as it appears here. By the way, I started this project days ago to share with you, but someone was seriously competing for my attention. He's pretty dramatic. :) The first pillow is inspired by this Pinterest find: I have two armchairs underneath ...
I took a nature walk with my boys today and happened to photograph a wish at sunset. Just wanted to pass it alon ...
Yep... I've been takin' care of business all weekend long! I'm trying to clear some items off of my "to do" list so that they won't be hanging over my head during the holidays. The great news {for me, anyway} is that I've got some time off this week and have several creative projects to tackle! So, I'll be posting throughout the week, instead of waiting for the weekend. Whoo-hoo! Moving ...
I'm especially excited about this thrifty find that I picked up at the Salvation Army last month. They had a huge bin of new sports letter appliques and they were selling them 20 for $1! Can you believe that?! I was reminded about my fun purchase thanks to Jodi Kahn's Homecoming Onesie post from earlier this week. Such a perfect project for this time of year! But, I don't know ...

I am finally making progress on my playroom/studio space! I ordered the fabric ages ago and it's been staring at me... for ages... wondering when I plan to use it. Do you remember my grand plans for the room? The challenge is to create a space that works for me (girly!) and my boys (definitely not girly). It's a challenge. I am happy to report that Project #1 is complete! Toy storage ...
Oh my goodness! You would not believe the past few days that I’ve had. It’s truly been an adventure of a lifetime. The turnip truck? Keep reading… I’ll explain myself later. You may remember my post from September. I discovered that my blog was a finalist in the “Craft” category for the First Annual Blue Ribbon Blogger Awards hosted by Country Living Magazine. I was over the moon!! But... ...
