You know those projects that seem sort of pointless or useless, but they just make you smile? This sort of falls into that category, but I love it so much. I’m sitting here trying to figure out how to even explain this project and nothing is really even coming to mind. Basically, it boils down to…
Thank you to Minted for sponsoring this post. As always, all opinions are 100% my own. It’s that time of year when the kids are finally out of school, the days are long and warm, and we start hitting the road to make those family memories. My VERY favorite time of year. I live for Summer…
I love Easter. Like on a ridiculous level. In fact, it would have to be a very close second to Christmas. And considering that Christmas means winter and I’m so over the cold, Easter may just currently be in first place. I mean really, a holiday centered around Spring, baby animals, and beautiful soft colors…what’s not to…
Most days I feel like I’m really wingin’ this mom thing. And then there are those rare days when I’m like, “Adelie, why am I the most awesome mom in the world?” Yes, I actually asked her that yesterday while I was making little Halloween masks for her dolls. She agreed that I was amazing,…
My daughter turned four last week, and if you’ve been around here for a bit, you know that art projects with her are a frequent activity. So, naturally, she requested an art themed birthday party (then the night before, changed her mind to a princess/pirate party “like her cousins”–too late my dear, too late). Yes,…
What do I love? Ten minute projects! What do I have? Drop cloth coming out my ears! Okay, so apparently there’s been too much Dora going on at my house. In fact, every time we go somewhere lately, my daughter yells “Where are we going?” about 30 times and expects you to be just as…
My daughter’s room, which has been in process for almost a year, is finally moving along. The biggest to-do for this room has been to get some art on all of the bare walls. We started with the gallery wall and a chalk board wall. Then, aside from the recent little update of the gallery wall, I’ve sort of…
You can find the first post in this series here First, let me answer questions about putting your tree in a bucket: *I got my bucket in the paint section at Lowe’s for about $20. This would add to the cost of the tree if I’d had to purchase it solely for Christmas purposes, but…
I had one of those sweet, simple mommy moments yesterday when I started looking through pictures on my camera and came across a bunch of pictures that Adelie has taken in the last few weeks. I catch her running off with my camera quite a bit lately and as nervous as it makes me, I…
As my daughter gets older, she’s getting more into things that require desk space. You know, art, play dough, and eventually homework, so I wanted to create somewhere that she could still be in my sight, but also have a little space of her own. The problem: space is limited in our house, so I…
