I love to read. Snuggling up with a good book is one of my favorite things to do. But even more than I love reading, I love books. I don't think a person can ever have too many books. I love the way they look and the way they smell. Over the years I have amassed a pretty good book collection (It would be bigger if Husband wasn't here to reign me in.) In our play room we have ...
Years ago I found a shelf that I really loved at Target. Husband and I bought it and we have hung it up in every apartment/house we have lived in since then. And in every single house it has hung completely empty. It is kind of an odd shape. It is a rectangular box with smaller shelves built into it. Everything we tried to put inside was either too big or too small. It just ...
Before Little Brother joined our family, I decided to put together a big sister gift for Sweet Girl. I figured Little Brother would be getting a lot of attention and maybe some new toys and some file folder games would help ease the transition. Sweet Girl is very into purses. She just likes something to put all her little things in, so I decided to make her a little bag ...
Have you ever felt a complete lack of inspiration and ambition? That's how I have been feeling this week. I just have the hardest time motivating myself to get up and do everything that needs doing. So, all week I have been slowly working on this 2x4 wooden pumpkin. I got the idea for this pumpkin on Pinterest last fall, and finally got around to making it when I had a bunch ...
I recently pulled out all of my fall decorations, and as I started to put them up I realized I really don't have many fall decorations. How did this happen? So it was time to get to work and start making some new fall crafts. I found some great inspiration from the cute fall sign over at The Happy Scraps. I liked the idea of just a simple sign. As I got started ...
I am so excited to finally be able to share this project with you! It is one of those projects that I have spent a few minutes on here and there over the past few months. I had a really hard time figuring out exactly what I wanted the finished project to look like so there was a lot of starting and stopping and asking Husband's opinion and staring over again. Now it's finished ...
Even though the weather is still very summer like, I have been dying to put up my fall decorations. I love seeing all the fall crafts and activities on other blogs and Pinterest. So I decided it was time to make my fall wreath. I have been looking for inspiration for several weeks, and it finally struck when I saw this simple burlap wreath at Create Craft Love. Here is what ...
Even though it is still almost 100 degrees here, fall is in the air and I am excited! I love fall. I love the holidays, the food, wearing sweaters, and lots more. Fall is also a great time for crafting. I love word art. I think they are such a fun decoration for every season. I decided I wanted to experiment with making my own word art for fall. So here is my first attempt. ...
I am the mother of two amazing kids and I am married to an incredibly sweet and smokin' hot guy. I taught elementary school and preschool before leaving to become a stay at home mom. Now I'm embarking on the adventure of a lifetime and learning how to be a mom.
