Sometimes I am struck with ideas that I just can’t get out of my head until I make them happen. When thinking about the holiday’s this year, I knew I wanted to do something a little different. Something colorful and fun and more me. That’s when the idea for a very bubbly Christmas came into […]

One of my favorite holiday movies to watch over and over is the modern-day classic Elf. I watched it with my kids for the first time last year (their first time, not mine) and knew instantly we’d be watching it every year. One of the best parts of the movie are the one-liners. “You sit […]

One of the first things that pops into my head when I think of the holidays is a warm cup of hot cocoa topped with tons of itty bitty marshmallows. It’s one of my families favorite things! Well, this year I decided to put my own spin on that traditional cup of cocoa and added […]

I think I’ve officially held off on posting about Christmas and the holidays as long as I can, so after today get ready for an onslaught of holiday activities, DIY’s, and recipes! The first of which will be one of my favorites, my first tree decorating idea of the year (yes, there will be more […]

Every where you turned this year on the internet there were everything from ice animal cookie costumes for Halloween, to ice animal cookie cakes to, and even iced animal cookie brownies. But for one reason or another no […]

If you remember last week I talked about copper Cassini leaves I picked up at Paper Source on one of my recent visits. I used the smaller leaves in the pack to create a set of fall themed drink stirrers, and today I will share how to turn the larger leaves in the pack into […]

Have you ever tried making your own candles? I just recently tried my hand at it and it is so much easier than I thought it would be. While it is super simple to pour the wax into a pre-made vessel like a mason jar, it is really easy to actually make your own vessel […]

Last night I fell asleep at 8:30 and it felt GOOD! That is until I woke up at 3am and couldn’t fall back asleep. As I laid there in bed trying to fall back asleep, I realized that I have never mentioned that I contribute to other blogs with fun crafts and DIY’s. So, today […]
