This Halloween it seems, I have a bit of a bat obsession. The front door wreath that is in progress has bats, there is a bat garland in my dining room and by this time next week I'll have hanging bats all over the house. Pictures and tutorials to come, I promise. It has been a long work week for me and pictures taken late at night after working at 12+ hour day don't really come out well enough for blog posting. In the meantime, here are a few of the inspiration pictures for my bat … [Read more...]
pet crafts – pet toy organization
This is nothing fancy but I figured I would share what works for us for all those cohabiting with furry creatures. Living with multiple animals equals an assortment of toys and pet stuff in general. While I love my babies, there are certain things of theirs I am not a fan of. Clutter in general is not my thing so their toys have been known to drive me crazy. What is the best way to keep the pet toys in order? Cute storage containers is what works for me. The cats have a little greek key paper … [Read more...]
the truth about the to do list
So I have a Monday confession. I want to talk about that list. You know, the one of all the projects you say you are going to do and never get to... Not the big ones you can't tackle because of real time constraints or money.The little annoying ones. The ones you could do if you just stopped playing on Pinterest, Facebook or your Google Reader. Or if you stopped making up excuses for why it isn't the right moment. Or if the hubby stopped watching golf (insert - football, baseball, soccer, etc). … [Read more...]
the unbecoming of mara dyer
I'm so excited to share this with you. My good friend Michelle Hodkin has her first book being released on Tuesday, September 27th - The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer. I strongly encourage you to run out there and get the book. I can't wait to devour it in a few hours on Tuesday night after I attend the launch party. And I'm not just saying this because I have two namesakes in the book ;) What I've read has guaranteed me that I'll have to drop everything and read it cover to cover when I get in on … [Read more...]
this is halloween – spider wreaths
I'm loving the Halloween supplies out this year. I found this great spider web ribbon at Michaels and knew it would be great for a wreath. I had two mini wreath forms that were the right size french doors leading to the patio so they seemed like the perfect combination. I made sure to wrap the ribbon with a bit of overlap to cover the form completely but without covering up too much of the design. I used a quilting pin on the back of the wreath to hold down the ribbon so if I messed up or … [Read more...]
craft room design – revealing my favorite place
I revealed my craft room/office when it was about 90% complete back in March. It was one of the first rooms we tried to finish so I would have my dedicated space for crafting, studying and working from home. I’ve been making tweaks to it since but I finally have our most recent updates to share. I spent a lot of time thinking of what my craft room design would be, but ultimately, I wanted an airy space with a bright color and a combination of light and dark furniture. It is playful but … [Read more...]
