It's been almost 12 years since this blog was born. It began in the spring of 2009, as a way to update our extended family on our young, growing family. This was before apps and phones became the big way to stay connected that they are today. We had a 2.5 year old and a 6 month old and were getting ready to travel the USA as part of Matt's job. One day I shared one of my crafts and thus was born the Spoonful of Imagination re-branded as a DIY blog. It was such a fun hobby/border line side gig Continue Reading
Letting Others In
One of my life issues is emotionally closing up when I'm going through something hard. It is easier for me to put up walls than be real.

I can't thank you Continue Reading

Haven Conference 2013
I can now say I have been to a blog conference. It was everything I thought it would be and so much more. For those of you who might wonder what a blog conference is, it is an event over a few days where bloggers come together to learn, network, and inspire one another. I went to the Haven conference in Atlanta that was geared towards other DIY and crafty bloggers. It was awesome. I roomed with one of my really good friends, Erin, at DIYontheCheap. We had a blast! For 2.5 days we Continue Reading
