Forgo the name plates this year and spice up your holiday parties with these simple DIY gilded monogram glasses for your family and friends. Best part, it’s so easy you’ll have them all done in one afternoon! I had a few stacks of vinyl letters on hand which proved perfect for sticking onto glass. I …
Hope you all had a most wonderful Halloween full of spooks, spirits and seriously good loot. We certainly did and let me tell you, we are plum tuckered out. The boys had very specific ideas for what they wanted to be this year and to my initial chagrin, they did not go together. I wasn’t …
This year for Little O’s third birthday, being a little obsessed with puppets as of late, we decided to take the the puppet show on the road and visit my sister and her Littles. Being as this was supposed to be Little O’s year with the family I felt this fit and we wanted to …
We’ve been having a lot of spooky fun over here – attending gigantic pumpkin contests, going on school field trips to Pumpkin Land and most recently making these very fun paper mache Halloween puppets.

OK ladies, like we need another excuse to go shoe shopping. But it certainly doesn’t hurt if we know we will be reusing our shopping bag afterwards, right!? I’ve been particularly fond of this DSW striped shoe bag for sometime and have been saving it for just the right project. I think I finally found …
A few weeks ago I received a call from my friend Jordan asking for assistance and creative inspiration for a baby shower she would be throwing for her sister-in-law Brooke. Knowing both Jordan and Brooke to be ladies of great taste, and even better company, I was more than delighted to take part. And then …
Yes it’s late in the day but I hope you all had (and still are having) a wonderful Easter Sunday. Aside from the cat scratching strep throat I’ve got going on I think things worked out pretty well for us this year (I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to make it off the couch). …
