After yesterday’s post about my DIY mud cloth ornaments, I figured I would continue on theme and make this whole week about DIY ornaments. Sure there are literally hundreds of thousands of different ornaments out there for you to just purchase, but for something completely unique, why not try your hand and making your own […]

Christmas is in full swing over here and casa de Kailo Chic and I have been creating so many fun new ornaments this year. Yes, I realize that Thanksgiving hasn’t even happened yet, but once it does I get pretty busy with the whole making and selling my handbags and accessories that I always have […]

Last week when I brought out my plain black cloth napkins to display my tassel napkin ring project, I realized how boring they where. Yes, black is a neutral of sorts and can go with everything, but they were just so blah. You know I love pattern and color and texture, and the plain black […]

If you have small kids and like Pinterest, there is no doubt that you have come across the felt Christmas tree and ornament craft that has been floating around for years. Before my son was born and my daughter was just a toddler, I created a felt Christmas tree for her to play with. She […]

When I think of Thanksgiving and Fall desserts, there are two traditional flavors that come to mind for me. Pumpkin (bread, cheesecake, pie, etc) and anything cranberry with orange. I am not a traditionalist when it comes to cranberry sauce with my turkey, but I love cranberry based desserts. In the past I have made […]

I sure do love fancy table settings, but I am still in the middle of the after college but not quite adult phase of dinner wear. I am slowly trying to accumulate nice plates, glasses, silverware, napkins, etc… without spending a ton of money. I finally have a nice set of plain white plates and […]

Have you all ever heard of arm knitting? You might be familiar with it if you are big into knitting or crochet. I am not skilled at either, but when I was introduced to arm knitting a year or two ago by my friend and super knitter Vicki Howell, I fell in love. The process […]

I know it may be too soon to talk about Christmas for some of you, but it is never too soon for me! You may have thought I loved Halloween, but it ain’t got nothing on Christmas. Today I was busy prepping some fun holiday crafts that I will be sharing with you in the […]

We all know that the main signs of falls arrival are the changing colors of the trees, those cool crisp mornings, and the onslaught of all things pumpkin spice. Not to be disrespectful to all the pumpkin spice, but I am still a sucker for the traditional pumpkin bread. To spice (pun intended) it up […]

As a final adieu to Halloween 2015, here are the decorations from our Halloween birthday party this past weekend. I promise after this there will be no more Halloween here on the blog until next year. I swear! I have already shared much of my Halloween decor as I went along, but there were a […]

I figured after two months of Halloween tutorials and sneak peeks into the decorations and games for my daughters Halloween origami birthday party, the least I could do is show you all the photos from the party itself. The party was a great success and I am sure that all the kids had a great […]

Well friends, we have reached the end of the Halloween posts and today I am finishing up with one of my favorite things that I have done to decorate for Halloween this year. I used mainly paper fans that I DIY’d using paper napkins to create this visually stunning and large scale Halloween art wall […]
