Rainbow Yarn Hanging

Rainbow Yarn Hanging

My girls love collecting things (Scott says they get it from me, but we all know that I don't have giant stashes of randomness everywhere in the house!) and Alice went through a phase of collecting sticks. She was particularly fond of a rather large stick and has been asking me for months to make something for her with it. It's been leaning against the wall in my bedroom for ages as I've tried to figure out what the heck to do with it. When 100 Directions' National Craft Month series kicked off ... Read More

Modern Royal Color Palette

Modern Royal Color Palette

If you follow me regularly here or on any of my social media channels, you know that we have been slowly working on fixing up our house. And I mean slowly! Sometimes we start out with the best of intentions, like finishing up the rest of our kitchen backsplash, but then we wonder if we should paint our cabinets first, which leads us to how dark our kitchen is and discussing ripping out some cabinets and putting a window in, and, of course, that takes outside help and we have to wait for an ...

Rustic Rainbow Jewelry Chest

Rustic Rainbow Jewelry Chest

This post contains sponsored content. I received paint from DecoArt to create my project. My girls absolutely love playing dress-up and I encourage it as much as possible. I started creating a space for them to keep their dress-up clothes, but it was missing a spot to keep their smaller pieces, like jewelry and tiaras (yes, four girls here!). During our recent decluttering spree, I found an old jewelry chest tucked away in one of our closets. I was going to get rid of it, but when I saw that ... Read More

Why We Went Digital

Why We Went Digital...and why you should, too!

We have been heavy on decluttering lately. I am completely embarrassed (and relieved!) with how much we've been putting out for donation and throwing away. We've been so much happier having less stuff in the house and it feels like a giant weight has been lifted. We realized, though, that with all of our decluttering, we hadn't been touching our DVD collection. We had DVDs from our individual collections before we were married, what we collected together, and discs that from different ... Read More

Fun Mystery Series to Listen to on Audible

Fun Mystery Series to Listen to on Audible

I've listened to audiobooks and radio shows for as long as I can remember. It started with recorded cassette tapes of classic radio shows like The Shadow and Sherlock Holmes, and expanded from there. I got my first (and still only!) iPod about twelve years ago and was introduced to a whole new world where I could load any book I wanted onto a device that could go anywhere with me. Since I had always listened to my books as I went to sleep, it also meant that I could put in earphones and not ... Read More

Nantucket Green Nightstand

Nantucket Green Nightstand

This post contains sponsored content. I received paint from General Finishes to complete my project. One of my goals for 2016 is to make my house a happy home. It sounds so cliche, but we've spent the last couple of years daydreaming plans for it and figuring out our style, and now I'm ready to really settle in and get to work. The January theme for The Fab Furniture Flippin' Contest is "A Fresh Start" and I can't think of anything more perfect. When I saw that General Finishes was sponsoring, ... Read More

Welcome

about me

I’ve wanted to be an archaeologist, in theatre, a judge, and to run a museum. While I try to decide what I want to be when I grow up, I spend my time crafting and exploring the world. Read More…
