If “summer” to you means spending days on the lake, you’re going to love this Easy Vinyl “Find Me at the Lake” Sign! If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that one of my favorite things to make is vinyl signs. I created this one for I Heart Naptime last summer, but I […]
Have you ever felt something drifting away from you? I consider it a blessing to experience this feeling often in my life. Once in college, my boyfriend told me that he loved me (over the phone, but that’s beside the point). I knew when he said it that I didn’t feel the same way, but […]

Once upon a time, there was a little girl who loved her mom, smiled all the time, and even endured her mom spending twenty minutes to give her a cute hairstyle! That girl is 10 now instead of 5, but she still loves it when I make her a cute tshirt! The 4th of July […]

Every year, the teenage girls in our ward/church congregation go to a 3-day Girls Camp. I absolutely loved Girls Camp as a teenager. I went all 6 years that I could as a camper, and then 1 year as a staff member. I am so thrilled to be the camp director for our girls this […]
In light of the recent bombing at the Boston Marathon, I’m grateful to live in a country where such things are NOT common. When they do happen, we pull together as a country in support of each other– at least for a little while :). I know it’s a little early, but I’m feeling patriotic. And […]
We have very limited wall space in our bathroom. Basically, there is room for a clock and something else. For five years, that something else has been a frame someone made us when we got engaged. It’s sweet, and the colors matched (which is the only reason I hung it in the bathroom)- but it’s […]
Sometimes I forget just how much I love paper crafting. I started my craft journey with scrapbooking, and my Silhouette made so many things possible not just in the scrapbooking world, but in the craft universe. So when I have the occasion to make some greeting cards it’s sort of like coming home again. I […]
Well, while we’ve been experiencing near-record heat here in Phoenix, with the weather that most of the country has been having, it seems like this Valentine’s Day will be perfect for cuddling up with someone you love, watching your favorite romantic movie and sharing a giant size box of chocolates. Perhaps you have something a […]
I know I’ve been talking about making cornices for my windows for awhile now, but I finally finished it! I pretty much followed this tutorial from Brooke at All Things Thrifty, except she used paintable wall paper and I used batting and fabric. I also picked a lighter wood than MDF. I had my wood […]
You guys. Our master bathroom is strange. I don’t know who agreed to this design, but it really is a little bit awkward. The bathroom is adjacent to the master bedroom, but there is no door between them- just a nice wide arched opening. (Privacy is so overrated!) Inside the main part of the bathroom, […]
