We had an overnight trip last weekend for my daughter’s regatta, which was about three hours away from our house. I’m convinced that packing for one night is just as much effort as packing for an entire week! Plus there was a change in weather…so that meant taking along hats, gloves, coats, extra layers of […]
a mantel “for the birds”
You may remember that I love to decorate our mantel for the various holidays (remember this post). Because Halloween is upon us, I’ve been busy creating a spooky mantel scene “for the birds.” I started by layering the mantel with these black feathery picks…I love the touch of orange sparkle. An antique wood framed mirror […]
washi wednesday vii
Have you missed my “washi wednesday” posts? If so, here’s a fun idea using washi tape and mini pumpkins… You simply decorate the pumpkins with strips of washi tape. Mix up the patterns of the washi tape…polka dots, stripes, chevron (try any combination of patterns and colors). Change the direction of the washi tape…horizontal or […]
be spooky
I’ve been rushing the season a bit by decorating for Halloween when it’s still September. Even my girls have called me out on it…”Mom, you used to say no pumpkins until October.” It’s hard not to get excited about the spooky day when you stumble upon some great finds (i.e. deals)! My friend, Lori, over […]
football snack bags
Everyone knows I have three GIRLS, so what am I doing making football themed snack bags? Well…I have a cheerleader, a cute (if I do say so myself) eight year old cheerleader who is cheering for our local youth football team on Sunday afternoons. They practice once a week right after school. Since they’ve been […]
preppy and pink…a bedroom redo
My oldest daughter wanted to redecorate her bedroom this summer. I know it seems kind of crazy to invest time and money in redecorating her room when she will be heading off to college next fall. Not to mention that this is the third time this room has been painted and redecorated since we moved […]
birthday countdown
My oldest daughter turned 18 last week! The celebrating began earlier than usual for this milestone birthday. I thought it might be fun to have a countdown leading up to the big day, so she was given a gift each day for eighteen days. I added a few “twists” to the eighteen days of gift […]
tickled pink
I saw this idea earlier this summer, and I just knew that I wanted to use it for a fun first day of school gift for my daughter’s teacher! I’m Tickled Pink that You’re my Teacher So fun and easy to put together! C and I found lots of pink items while on a Target […]
washi wednesday vi
Today is a BIG day in our house! It is Grace’s first day of high school. She is a ninth grader…a high school freshman. I’m still trying to figure out how summer flew by so quickly, let alone how she can be old enough to be in high school! The first day of school calls […]
washi wednesday v
It’s already Wednesday again…I can’t believe how quickly these weeks are passing us by. Why can’t those winter months go by just as fast?!? Since it’s Wednesday, here’s a quick idea for dressing up some tea lights with washi tape. I used these green apple tea lights (click here for more details) that I purchased […]
