Sometimes two elements come together almost magically to make an awesome decor piece. Like the universe demanded they be together (melodrama much?). That’s how I feel about these fabulous neon footed terrariums. I originally made these terrarium bowls for a different project, but then my friend grabbed a few bags of neon pink and orange […]

I know the term cheese ball doesn’t usually scream sweet dessert, but trust me that this funfetti s’mores cheese ball is all that and a bag of (chocolate) chips. When I originally thought of this concept, I was just thinking of a plain s’mores cheese ball with a graham cracker and cream cheese base. But […]

I think it is safe to say by now that tassels are the big thing in 2016. I have seen them everywhere from bags to pillows, and I have to say, I am a fan! After seeing a pair of tassel sandals at Target a few weeks ago, I just knew what my next project […]
