This post is sponsored by World Market. I am a member of the World Market Tribe. My family absolutely loves Easter. My girls go crazy over Easter Egg hunts and I love that Easter means that it's time for spring decor. I love the pastels and bunnies that start appearing all over. My house is a bit bunny crazy in general, but Easter makes it much more acceptable! I have always loved the idea of an Easter Brunch where I could lay a table full of bunny dishes without being looked at strangely. ... Read More

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
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!

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
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
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
