Well, here in the Valley of the Sun, it won’t truly feel like fall for another few months, but the mornings are cooler, the nights are cooler, and school is in session. That’s “fall” enough for me! This weekend I am breaking out the fall decor! But first, another fall project had to be completed. […]
My daughter has a very basic white Ikea MALM chest of drawers. Until recently, I never even thought of doing anything to it. But then, I was walking in Michaels, and saw this really cute pink printed shelf paper. I thought it would be perfect for her dresser. I started off by covering the middle […]
Last week I was at the store and I saw an ingredient that I really wanted to try- peanut butter and chocolate chips. But for whatever reason, I put them back and went on with my shopping. But those chips have stayed with me. Niggled at my brain. Yesterday I was at the store again, […]

I love Pride and Prejudice. I love Mr. Darcy (well, the later, humbled by love Mr. Darcy). I DIE for the BBC adaptation and all its glory. (Keira Knightly? Not so much. Not bad, but in comparison…..) So when I saw this Pottery Barn Knock-off, I had to make one for myself. I kept mine […]

If you haven’t noticed by now, I just love Pinterest. If you love it as much as I do then these may look a little familiar. I am really loving the vibrant colors of candy corn right now and just had to make these. All you need are some styrofoam cones, yarn, hot glue and […]
This was originally created for a guest post at Crafting and Creativity! Today’s project was inspired by this picture I found on Pinterest. (You can follow me here:) Edited: I want to add this button that My Marbles created: Isn’t it awesome? I hope to be able to use it more often: Edited*** This button clock […]
So, almost a year ago I wrote this post about how I was changing up the bedding in our master bedroom. It’s taken me this long to get around to showing you what I came up with. Now here’s a little secret: I didn’t buy new bedding. The only thing that changed is the pillows! […]
I’m participating in some New Friend parties today- check them out if you haven’t already!
Every crafter needs a good supply of buttons. And while I’m no button hoarder, I do have myself a good supply. Before I started on this project, I had three plastic containers and two plastic baggies full of buttons. Those take up a lot of space- and space is at a premium in my office/craft […]
Do you remember that I am doing a master bedroom redo? I’ve got the big stuff done, like painting, choosing bedding, etc. What I have problems with is decorating and staging. I can see what I want it to look like in my head, but I have a difficult time pulling things together to make […]
Most of the time, when I make things, it’s because I like something, but don’t want to pay the asking price at a store. Or, maybe I want to give something with meaning to someone. Well, in this case, I made something because I just could not find what I was looking for. My mother […]
