You can find our old trips to Dutch Wonderland HERE HERE HERE and HERE. It is SO neat to see how the pictures change over the years. This was our FIFTH year at Dutch Wonderland and it was so much fun, of course! There were a few meltdowns by Ethan and Ainsley, but overall, it was a great […]
I promise to post about some of our room remodels soon, but in the meantime, I want to share some quick and inexpensive artwork I made last week! This key artwork was SO easy! I found some antique keys and instantly knew they would look really cool as artwork. I bought an old, junky frame […]
Recently, Blog Her approached me about reviewing a new P&G product and of course, I said “Yes!” And to make it even better, they are offering a wonderful sweepstakes! Read the details down at the bottom of this post. I was so excited when they sent me Dove’s newest body wash: Dove Visible Care Toning Creme Body […]
Can I just tell you how excited we are to be *almost* finished with this project??? Very! Remember all of my tumultuous posts regarding my living room? (cry me a river, right?) Well, it has undergone quite a transformation in the past couple of months…. hardwood floors, new accessories, and BUILT-IN CABINETS! […]
Eek~ I LOVE when I can use my creativity for a custom order! A lovely customer recently contacted me to see if I could create a mobile for her soon-to-be born baby’s room. The room theme is kind of vintage-y and she was hoping for something with hot air balloons. After finding the perfect […]
We are finally in the process of finishing Ainsley’s big girl room! (hopefully this week) With our small budget in mind, I set about making her some artwork while keeping the shabby chic theme in mind. Aren’t they cute!!! And SO easy! Paper dolls were a favorite of mine growing up and […]
We have been in this house for a little over two years now and the Master Bathroom has been a thorn in our sides. It was a sickly green color with a tragic palm tree border. 1999 called and asked for the decor back, and we agreed. (don’t believe me? Check this post HERE […]
Window Valance = Quick and Easy Dress/Top This project was seriously so easy! I bought this cute window valance at Goodwill for $1 and knew it would make a really cute top or dress for Ainsley. I cut it to the appropriate size for Ainsley and used the existing tab tops as straps! Then, just […]
I have had several requests to repost the Fabric Flower tutorial here to make it easier for you to find, so here it is! (Also find it HERE on Project Run and Play) A few months ago, I made a dress for the sew-along portion of Project Run and Play and I also created […]
No, I am not pregnant! 🙂 I have two pieces of big news! They aren’t exactly earth-shattering, but they are pretty darned exciting to me:) First, Ainsley is officially a “big girl” and has been sleeping in her “big girl” bed for almost a week. GO AINSLEY! (I am more excited because I finally get […]
I love to sew and I love to try new patterns. I also love when I can laugh at myself. Even failures can be funny, right? I have been wanting to try my hand at a bubble romper for Ainsley and found a pattern in my stash that seemed like it could […]
So, what do you do when your son requests a “Number Party” and is completely insistent on it for almost a year? Well, you throw him the best darned number party you can manage! As one might imagine, this theme isn’t exactly widely used and most certainly won’t be found in stores, so everything must […]
Remember when my living room and dining room finally got hardwood floors? Well, we love it and the furniture is finally back in. Now, I need your help in deciding what kind of rugs to put under the dining room table and in the living room! So, here is the living room. There is a […]
