I mentioned last week that everyone seems to be having kids around me lately. To go with the baby blankets I have been making, I've also been working on using my freezer paper tutorial to personalize gifts for siblings. It is always hard to show up with a gift for the new little one and not bring something for the older sibling(s). These seem to be big hit with all the moms and are so easy to make. This set is for two of my favorite boys, Drew and Parker. Drew is 2 and Parker will be 3 months … [Read more...]
planting an herb garden part 1 – the planning process
I'm so excited that we are finally getting to the point that we are planting things. It has been over a year in this house and all we have done is rip out plants. While it has been nice to get a clean slate to work with, we like plants and the hubby is really good at not killing them....me not so much. We did a little trip to Home Depot and came home with a bunch of seeds to get started. We plan on getting these planted in little pots to get the seedlings started while we work on building our … [Read more...]
tackling a florida landscape part 2 – plant destruction
It has been a fun and messy time taking out our crazy landscaping to get the yard ready for new look.

wedding place cards – elegant and easy
Weddings! I love them but I am thankful I never had to get married again...fingers crossed that after 11 years together we are in the home stretch ;) One of my dear friends is getting married on Saturday here in South Florida. Planning a wedding is not fun but planing it from afar makes it worse. She panicked on me a few weeks ago and mentioned that she still didn't have wedding place cards. I calmed her down and promised to help her out since she has been in New York this entire time. We … [Read more...]
