Happy Wednesday friends! That means it’s time for me to link up with Lindsey from The Pleated Poppy for “What I Wore”. This past week has been a little, shall we say, poopy in the clothing department for me (sick kids, not getting out much, yada, yada, yada), so I just have one outfit to […]

Ok, so it had been too long since I had a fun little decorating project to work on, and I was itching to do something around the house. We have this little area underneath the steps that wasn’t getting properly used, and I’ve been wanting to create an area where the kids can hang all […]

Ok, it’s that day of the week where I embarrass myself and show pictures of my Goodwill clothes. Seriously. I cringe when I see pictures of myself, and you probably do the same thing. But what I’m hoping to accomplish with these posts is inspire you to try doing the thrift store thing. You’ll be […]

I’m thrilled to be a part of a blog series that  RitaJoy at Harbour Breeze put together. I’m giving my two cents about having an Etsy shop, along with Gina from Shabby Creek Cottage, Jami from Freckled Laundry, and Lisa from The Pennington Point.  The series will be going on all week at Harbour […]

I get a lot of questions about the type of fonts that I use for the signs that I make, so I thought I’d create a post listing my favs. I’m a little bit obsessed with fonts and typography, and it’s always fun for me to find new ones. My favorite website for finding new […]

Hi friends! It’s “What I Wore Wednesday” and today I’m hosting a giveaway for DownEast Basics! Yay for free cute stuff!! This lavender top is from DownEast Basics, and I love it.

It’s Monday! Time for a fresh new week. YES. I’m linking up with the fabulous Lisa Leonard for some pictures and “Hello Mondays” today. Hello playing outside in the BEAUTIFUL Spring weather and getting filthy. This little girl knows how to walk but prefers to crawl when she’s outside.  Hello playing tennis out on the driveway […]

Today I thought I’d share some of my latest signs. If you need ideas for signs, I also have a link on my sidebar where you can see many more that I’ve done. > > > Here’s a family sign I created with an old door and rustic hinges:  A sign using a door with […]

Random little things that are making me smile today… Avery loves exercising with me in the evenings. She gets so into it and totally cracks me up. I, on the other hand, don’t love it quite as much. (In case you are interested, right now I’m into doing Pilates following YouTube videos.) Getting this little […]
