How To Make An Earthy Beaded Necklace

I’ve been holding onto these beads for months now, almost a year to be exact. I purchased them on this trip to the flea market when I was still pregnant with Hayden and have played around with them off and on a few times now, not quite getting the design or configuration to my liking. […]

Kefir Yogurt Fruit Cups

Sugar snacks, like Fruit Roll Ups are a vivid memory of my childhood.  One was placed in my lunchbox almost every day of my school career, and was my mom’s go-to choice as a ‘peace be with you’ snack when we were grocery shopping.  You know, a snack your mom gives you (and we now […]

DIY Watercolor Art

Thanks for stopping by! I love and appreciate you taking the time to do so! Let’s stay connected on Facebook. There’s two things I want to preface this post with.  Number 1, I consider my artistic level to be at the Kindergarten level, at best.  My son often draws better lines than I do.  Number […]

DIY Graphic Onesies

My little guy is growing despite his best efforts to refuse all solid foods lately. He’s now comfortably fitting into 12 month clothes and has quickly outgrown the arrow onesie I made for him just 2 months ago. So it was time to stencil up some new pieces for him to wear, and this time […]

DIY Floral Glitter Crowns

Since we were getting all random on Taylor’s “favorite things” party, we decided to throw some floral crowns into the mix.  After all they combine all the things that most 7-8 year old little girls love; hair accessories, flowers, color and glitter.  I decided to skip goodie bags and hand these out instead.  They also […]

Taylor’s Favorite Things Birthday Party

I swore I wasn’t going to throw Taylor a party this year.  Actually last year, after the beautifully exhausting mermaid party, I swore I wasn’t going to throw a party for her.  At the time I was swollen pregnant, hormonal, hot and tired.  I couldn’t imagine going through all the rigamarole with a 6 month […]

How To Throw A Watercolor Workshop

Slowly and surely since Hayden has been born, I’ve developed a new routine of enjoying Sunday night on the couch with Art, watching a plethora of our favorite TV shows, which happen to now all appear on Sunday nights. From Downton to Dexter to Mad Men, Sunday nights are now for the couch and cuddling, […]

DIY Watercolor Sprayed Easter Eggs

In an effort to keep the kids happy and busy (read, not bugging me to watch TV), I boiled some eggs for them to dye, while I finished up another craft project I was working on. I ended up spending some time getting them started, and it turned out that I loved these eggs even […]

25 Neon Inspired DIY Projects

With the conclusion of my Valentine’s Day projects a couple of weeks back, it occurred to me that I had completed a whole year’s worth of holidays and DIY crafts centered around neon. When the neon trend came about in early 2012, I wasn’t automatically smitten, but after a couple of months of seeing everything […]
