Wrapping Up April

slime kit printable tag for slime gift idea

Has spring hit where you live?  Despite a lot of rain and some really crazy fluctuating temperatures, I think spring is here in Texas.  If the wildflowers are any indication, it’s definitely here!  The sides of highways are covered with a carpet of the most beautiful flowers in blue, pink, white, and red.  Every year […]

We moved into a new house last fall and we’re completely settled with one exception: most of the walls are still totally bare.  I’ve been slowly hanging some of the pictures I love and finding new things to decorate the walls.  This week I used […]

The Best Things About Austin, Texas

Ford provided the vehicle for this trip to Austin, Texas.  All thoughts and opinions are my own. The slogan might be Keep Austin Weird but after recently spending a bit of time in Austin during a conference, I decided the weird isn’t so weird and is actually pretty wonderful.  The colors, the character, and the […]

Upcycled Faucet Handle Cabinet Knobs

upcycled knobs in bathroom

One of my favorite things to do is to pilfer through the goods at a junk sale or market.  I love the rusty treasures and the old furniture coated in layers of chipped paint.  And I’m always drawn to old faucet handles but until recently I had no idea what to do with them.  When […]
