Recycled T-Shirt Mini Wreath
Yesterday I shared a simple mini-wreath ornament over at Katie of Sew Woodsy's 12 Days of Handmade Ornaments. It's something that you could make (or your kids could make) in a few minutes and was a great quiet time activity. It's made from recycled materials found around the house, so there's a chance you won't have to buy anything. Woo hoo for recycling! Grab a green t-shirt, canning jar … [Read More...]
DIY Sharpie Letter Garland with Free Printable
This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group™ and Sharpie, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #StaplesSharpie http://cmp.ly/3/8vNxcO. Lately I have been crushing on gold, hand drawn designs, and garlands. So I decided to put the three together and made a letter garland. I've attached a few printables to this post so that you can make one of … [Read More...]

Hey guys! You're the best and it's Christmas so I've teamed up with a few friends to give one of you a camera. :) That's right, we're giving away one Canon T3 DSLR with a 18-55 lens.

Spicy Sriracha Deviled Eggs
If you know what sriracha is, then you're probably going to read this recipe and decide that you want to make it now. If you don't, let me just say that I added a little spicy and sweet kick to your grandma's old deviled eggs. It's so yummy, you might not make deviled eggs the same way again. But before I share the recipe, we are doing another recipe blog hop, this time with holiday bites: … [Read More...]
7 Reasons Why You Need a Robot
I really don't like to mop. Like at all. And that's really bad because these floors should probably be mopped daily. Ummm, yeah. That's gross. And now I'm embarrassed. :) So when I was asked to review the new iRobot Braava Floor Mopping Robot, I wanted to jump through the computer and hug the sender. I remained calm and said yes. When the Braava got here, or Mr. Roboto as I like to call … [Read More...]
DIY Snowball Garland
After having a glitzy tree the last few years, I'm all about simple and handmade decor this Christmas. I'm calling it "Kindergarten Chic". What's more kindergarten-y than cotton balls and string? This simple DIY snowball garland took only a little bit of skill and a little bit of time to make, and at $2 for supplies (if you don't already have them), this is a winner. All you'll need is … [Read More...]
Cozy Movie Night + Christmas Movie List Printable
If dinner time at our house had a soundtrack it would play to the tune of "eat your food! don't put chicken in your hair! please sit down!". But after dinner, we get cozy. The dishes are done and the toys are picked up by little hands (maybe), a messy almost 2 year old gets the food washed out of his hair and a little baby goes down to bed. It's time to relax and read together, play together, or … [Read More...]
Handmade Christmas Cards + a Giveaway
I love Christmas. And while I'm not quite ready to start decorating like the rest of blog land, I am proud to say that I am D-O-N-E with my Christmas cards. Well, they're not addressed, stamped, licked, or mailed. But they're ready!!! Two of my favorite artists have come together and to open The Christmas Collaboration shop. To say I was excited when I heard this announcement is a bit of an … [Read More...]
Hey. Hi. Sup.
I find myself time and time again not knowing quite what to say. So hey. Hi. Sup? How's it going out there? You having a good day? We are. :) One kid is napping, one is in her pjs, one is in his underwear (I don't know why), and one is sitting here next to me chewing his hands and cooing. Welp, someone just lost their temper. I do that sometimes. More than I'd like to admit. And … [Read More...]
Painted Hallway Trim
So a while back I showed you the painted trim in our living room. This unused living room later became my sweet mom cave. I also painted the dark trim in our dining room, and the before and after on that is awesome because it is the same furniture! Really shows the magic of the transformation. But we ALSO painted the trim in our hallway. I still have a few things to do before it is finished, … [Read More...]
