When I saw this cute cocoa and toast post at Jacolyn Murphy the other day, I loved it! It made me think how cute heart shaped toast would be sitting on a mug of scrambled eggs. What a great breakfast to serve before a special day at school or on a birthday or anniversary. And […]
A Knit Robe for a Doll
My latest knitting project is finished and I love the way it turned out. As a birthday gift, I knit a little robe and slippers for Lila’s American Girl. The pattern came from the book Fun-to-Knit Doll Clothes, a book my mom owns. I was really impressed with the pattern … it knit up easily but […]
Bubblegum Valentines
Homemade valentines are one of my favorite crafts to make with the kids and this year Lila’s giving out bubblegum valentines to friends and classmates. With handwritten tags, these valentines are cute and easy … and just perfect for the class valentine exchange! All you need for this simple bubblegum valentine idea are colorful gumballs […]
A Splash of Color
The quest to add color to our house continued over the weekend. Our butler’s pantry is very small and very white. I forgot to take a photo until after I had taped off but you get the idea. White counters {bleck}, white tiled backsplash {bleck}, and whitish walls. I went bright and used my […]
Love Valentine Shirt
Tate had her playgroup Valentine party this morning and I used my cutting machine to whip up a little love valentine shirt for her to wear. In ten minutes I had a quick and easy holiday shirt that’ll look so festive in photos. Throw a little duct tape barrette into the wild mane and she’s […]
Duct Tape Chair Back Envelope
Yesterday I shared a Valentine’s Day duct tape tablescape and today I’ll show you how I made my favorite part: this fun little duct tape chair back envelope based on a fabric chair back envelope I saw in the Pottery Barn catalog. Isn’t it perfect for hiding a few special Valentines? These envelopes would be great […]
Valentine’s Day Tablescape with Duct Tape
The duct tape used in this Valentine’s Day tablescape was provided by Duck Brand. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Duck Brand Duck Tape recently sent me some duct tape in fun Valentine colors and I set out to create a little Valentine’s Day tablescape, using a Pottery Barn catalog photo as inspiration. I […]
Smiley Face Valentine for Toddlers
My kids really love Earth’s Best Organic Smiley Snacks. Not only are they flavorful and cute {who can resist a snack that smiles?} but they’re a great source of iron, zinc, and six B vitamins. As a mom, I also love that they don’t have any artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives. And they’re perfect for […]
Groundhog Day
My kids will be celebrating Groundhog Day 2012 with these cute little pudding snacks. Inspiration found here. I changed it up a little and used a Mound for the groundhog. Had I had more time to run to the store, I would have used edible eyes. His white icing eyes make him look a little […]
Wrapping Up January
January was a fun and busy month, full of parties and home decor projects. If you missed some posts, here’s what I’ve been up to. In January, I made a beaded bulb cover, hosted a soup swap, made a Pinterest-inspired peg board for Kennedy, painted my laundry room, had a brush with The New York […]
Tate’s Journal of Funnies
A few years ago, I posted about the journals I use to keep track of the funny things my kids say. They’re among my favorite possessions and we go back and read them frequently. I’m so glad I’ve written down their funny little quotes. Tate just has just started saying cute and funny things. One […]
A Green Apple Laundry Room
I’ve been wanting to paint my laundry room for quite some time. It was a blah white and everything just faded into everything else. For the amount of time I spend in there, washing clothes for seven, it really needed to be a bit more fun. I thought bright green would look great against the […]
A Pinterest-Inspired Peg Board
Back in October, I gave my friend, Kim, a Pinterest gift. I gave her the supplies to make something from her Pinterest board and promised I’d make it with her. We did our shopping last week and got together yesterday to put our peg boards together. I made my board for Kennedy’s room so I […]

This bias tape tutorial post contains affiliate links. A few months ago, Jessica at Me Sew Crazy, held a contest for a bias tape maker … and I won! With the craziness of the holidays, it’s just been sitting in the box waiting for a test run. This week I dug it out, read the […]
