I love a good mess. There is something that is comfortable about it to me. Paint and little cuts of paper are a pretty normal sight around my house. BUT, every other week or so I do have an OCD melt down where I clean it all. We then create it again. I love crafting in a clean house. So weird. There are times though, where I want a quick, no mess craft. I have found that having some of these on hand can change-up my day and even help entertain my kids on days where I am needed something. I Continue Reading
DIY Paper Pumpkins
I can't believe fall is here. Although the "official" first day of fall isn't till later this month, I am so excited to start decorating for my favorite season. This weekend I pulled out my bucket of fall decor and happily started placing my collection of pumpkins around the house. I love fall. As I was in the basement getting my bucket of fall stuff, I saw my huge box of left over moving paper. When we moved in, I had a hard time throwing out the paper we used to wrap some of our breakable Continue Reading
DIY Initial Art
When you do something new (that you love), aren't you so proud of it!? One of the things I love about homeschooling our kiddos is seeing their excitement when they get something new for the first time. You have these moments all the time as parents. The first steps, the first drink out of sippy cups, and even the first #2 on the "big girl potty" are all big deals. Can you tell we have been potty training this summer by that last one? This week, I let me boys do two things that I have always Continue Reading
Afghan Confusion
When you go thrifting (if you go thrifting) do you always look for the same item? Do you always head straight to the dishes in hopes of finding some vintage Pyrex or straight to the furniture section for your next piece to redo? I love to check out a few sections. Pictures frames, toys, baskets, and linens are a few of my favorites. Lately, I have had some afghan confusion. Every time I walk into a thrift store I see at least one afghan for sale. I am confused! Why do people part with these Continue Reading
Saying Goodbye to Our Home
Matt has lived here going on twelve years and I've been here just short of nine years. Saying goodbye is hard. So many amazing memories. But for me saying goodbye to the house isn't the hardest part. It is the backyard. My favorite tree of all time lives in our yard. It is gorgeous and huge. I love to lay on the trampoline with the kids and stare up at it. Watching it fill out in the spring with the early morning sun shinning through its branches is one of my favorite things. I will be sad to Continue Reading
