I love leaving a little May Day basket hanging on a neighbor’s door handle. What better way to begin the day than to find some unexpected flowers? We’ve delivered baskets a number of times and continued the tradition today. Did you leave or find any baskets today? I’ve started truncating my posts … please pop […]
IKEA Inspired Shelves
Remember the crate bookshelves I added to Luke’s room? Well, the other day I happened upon the IKEA blog {who knew IKEA had a blog?} and saw very similar shelves that had been painted on the inside. It instantly went on my to-do list. I tackled the job yesterday during naptime, thinking it would be […]
Frozen Key Lime Pie
This Easter, we’ll celebrate with only our immediate family. Even so, any gathering feels festive when seven people are seated around the table and even more festive when the meal ends with frozen key lime pie! The macadamia nut crust is amazing and truly makes the pie! This is one of those recipes that you’ll […]
Layered Greek Appetizer
I made this quick layered greek appetizer for Bunko the other night and thought I’d share the recipe here because it was a crowd favorite. It’s so fresh tasting and has a delicious, savory combination of flavors that work perfectly together. To make this easy greek appetizer, you’ll need 1 package {8 ounces} softened […]

Check out the easy tutorial and then whip up your own cupcake cake. To make this soccer cupcake cake, bake […]
Marshmallow Sheep
These little marshmallow sheep were featured in an issue of Southern Living and they went to the top of the Easter project list. Aren’t they just adorable? And the best part is they’re surprisingly easy. The kids could even help make this for a fun Easter activity! These whimsical little edible sheep are made from Pepperidge […]
Resurrection Rolls for Easter
Every year, I have a pile of things I want to do with the kids on Easter weekend but time and motivation run out. I started wondering why I leave everything till Easter weekend rather than spreading things out over the weeks before. Not only does it take the pressure off but it allows anticipation […]
Oliver + S :: A Messy Kid Bib
Want to see what I made with that self-laminated cotton? A cute {and wipeable} bib for little Tate. I have to admit that I’m terrible about putting bibs on Tate. And I wasn’t great about putting them on the others either {except for Kennedy. She was so messy that we had a full […]
How to Laminate Cotton
I absolutely love laminated cotton but the cost gets me every time. I’ve used it for only one project in the past because every time I look at it, I cringe at the cost per yard. So when I found out it was super easy to make your own, I had to try it … […]
A Cupcake Tree
I’m co-hosting a baby shower tonight and this mini cupcake tree centerpiece is my favorite detail. I just love it. Inspired by a cupcake tree I saw online, I made a few changes and I think it turned out so cute. To make this cupcake tree, I used natural white curly branches found at the […]
Baby Sock Rosette Wreath
I’ve been working on a few fun projects for a baby shower that I’m co-hosting tomorrow. We chose a sweet spring theme {think whimsical birds and birdhouses} with spring colors of blue, green, yellow, and pink. I volunteered to embellish a simple wreath for the front door and I came up with this fun baby […]
April Fool’s Day Tricks
It’s getting harder and harder to trick my family with April Fool’s Day tricks {especially the older kids who have become a little too wise to the pranks} but in the name of tradition, I had to attempt to pull out a few April Fool’s Day tricks today. The kids were given a special treat this morning […]
Mint Soap
With my mint growing at the speed of light, I’ve been on the lookout for new ways to use it as well as ways to use my other herbs. The April 2011 issue of Martha Stewart Living couldn’t have been more timely. Not only does it contain a pile of recipes that use fresh herbs […]
A Little Fun
Yesterday, a good friend of mine ran her first ever half-marathon. Such a huge accomplishment! I decided to celebrate with a fun little basket. Thirteen packages of Pop Rocks, one for each mile. Just so you know: if I ever run a half-marathon, I’m gonna need a little more than Pop Rocks to celebrate.I’m linking […]
