I actually don’t know much about St. Patrick’s Day. But I do like rainbow cupcakes–even though I’m not sure food is supposed to be such bright colors…
There’s still time to enter the giveaway down below.
A few things I really should be doing:
+ making the beds for Katie and Will
+ cleaning the bathroom

It’s spring cleaning time around here. The trees and bushes are on the verge of full bloom and so I’ve got a serious case of the cleaning bug. The next few Tuesdays I want to share a few of my favorite DIY organizing projects. First up: the easy envelope organizer.
Cathe Holden thought up this great [...]
I know I’m a little late on this post, but I’m still going to share! For Valentine’s Day this year, I kept it simple. I drew a few cheesy valentines on smallish pieces of paper (I think they were about 2.5″ by 4″) with my trusty Sharpie. Then I left my almost-four-year-old with his markers [...]
I’m having a hard time believing it’s March. Where did February go? I totally missed it! Oh well. Things have been crazy busy around here – hence the lack of blogging on my part. Sorry! I promise there will be a tutorial this Tuesday (I’m such a slacker!). I had my first sinus infection since [...]
Here are some things I’ve been doing instead of blogging:
I’m getting Valentine’s gift card holders ready to stock in my shop (should be there before the weekend).
The weather has been perfect lately so most mornings have been spent at the park. Life couldn’t be better.
Filled a custom order for 45 bird and butterfly notebooks. Loved [...]

+ Deliver the custom book that’s ready.
+ Make sure I win something at the auction over at Bloom.
+ Order our Christmas cards.
+ Dust.

I finally solved my advent calendar dilemma! Hooray! And I’m feeling especially awesome because I didn’t spend one single penny. I managed to only use stuff I already had. So, I’m sharing a little how-to for this one because it’s super easy and I bet you have enough stuff at your house to do it [...]

Hi friends. I hope your Thanksgiving was as tasty and wonderful as mine was. Now it’s time to savor Christmas. Chris got the Christmas decorations out of the attic on Friday so most of our lights on the house are up and our tree is standing and [...]
I had two goals this week:
1. Relax and
2. List the left over items from the open house in my etsy shop.
I’ve done a really good job on the first one: read lots of stories with the kiddos, ate lunch on the deck every day, raked leaves in the back yard, wrote letters, made banana muffins.
And [...]
I love Tuesdays! My sister-in-law, Katie, is back (hooray!) to teach us how to make autumn centerpieces. Perfect timing right? Enjoy!
*********************************************
Here are a few ways to make fall centerpieces out of things you can find in your yard.
All you need to get started is fall leaves, twine, glass vases, and candles. I used [...]
