I’m so excited to share my weekend DIY project with you today! If you’ll remember, I put a DIY toddler bed on my Top 10 list of projects to finish in 2012, and this weekend I accomplished just that. I’m super proud of it because neither myself nor my husband have much experience in working…
About 6 months ago, I purchased an old typing table from someone on Craigslist for a measly $5. I happened to come across it right after I decided to create a crafting corner in my bedroom and knew its tiny, yet expandable size was just what I needed. Last month, I put it on my list as one of the top 10 projects I wanted to finish in 2012. So here’s the big reveal!
I’m about 4 months away from welcoming my little man into the world, and nursery prep is in full swing. We have sooo much work to do, but I’ve been keeping all my dreams for the room organized so that we can pull it together quickly.
I thought I’d share my baby boy nursery mood board with you since I’m so excited about it. The color scheme will be centered around the Skip Hop Mod Dot bedding, which I found and immediately fell in love with. The wall behind the crib will feature fabric clouds, and there will be subtle additions of clouds, airplanes, and globes/maps around the room.
A few weeks ago, I saw something on TV (or maybe I read it… I can’t remember a thing these days…) about a concept from the book “Simplicity Parenting” by Kim John Payne. In the book, Payne reminds us that less is, in fact, more when it comes to parenting and offers “tips for reducing…
With a new year beginning, I have another opportunity to try and get organized and get things done! With a baby on the way and a toddler turning two next week (yikes!), most of the projects I want to finish center around completing their bedrooms, as well as my own, which is getting its very own crafting corner.
I’ve made a huge “to-do” list for myself and the Mr., and the following ten projects are ones that I pledge to finish this year, gosh darnit. I’ll let you know my progress; be sure and hold me accountable!
I’m the kind of girl that loves to hang things on the wall. Art, photos, weird little sentimental pieces, shelves. Whatever. I love it all. A full wall gives me joy. Blank walls make me nervous. But if I had to frame each thing that I hang, I would be broke. Because, gosh darnit, frames are expensive.…
I’m getting in the mood for Halloween (can you tell with all the Halloween posts I’ve been doing lately??), so I thought I’d share some photos of my “haunted” (or not so much) house. Here’s a peek at what’s going on in my home: I made this super-simple table runner with black fabric and strips…
Since Halloween is fast approaching, I’ve had spooky decorating on the brain. While looking for ideas online, I kept running across these amazing Halloween mantels. Unfortunately I don’t have a fireplace, hence, I don’t have a mantel… but I can still pick elements from each one of these for other places in my house. I’m…
