I’ll admit it. Pop-Tarts were one of my favorite guilty pleasures when I was younger. And still are turthfully. There was just something about them that was so addicting. I know I am not the only adult who still likes this childhood treat, so I decided to make the treats a little more adult friendly […]

One of my absolute favorite past times (aside from making awesome things) is to check out the interior design and decor of new restaurants and bars. I love the modern esthetic of these trendy new spaces with their gold hardware, modern lighting, and amazing tile. One trend that I keep seeing pop up everywhere is […]

Now that my kids are a bit older, we have started a yearly tradition of going to see the “BIG” fireworks on the Fourth of July. Last year we found our new favorite spot not far from our house where everyone can bring picnic blankets and chairs and there is live music leading up to […]

Wait. What do you mean? I am pretty sure doughnut IS a verb. As in ‘I am about to go all doughnut on his a**’. Nope. Scratch that. However, it totally should be a verb to crafters, because what is more fun to make than doughnut themed everything? Today, in celebration of national doughnut day, […]

Most of my crafting begins by just looking all around me and gaining inspiration from what I see. Whether it is in the craft store looking at new products, at Target/Home Goods/Other random decor store, or even just in my craft room, I tend to draw ideas for new crafts from everywhere.

I came across a few pairs of brightly colored espadrilles on a late night internet shopping spree that I just loved, but the price tags were a bit to high for me (I’m kind of a cheapskate when it comes to clothes and shoes, home decor on the other hand, not so much:). I decided […]
