Magnolia Wreath
I’ve been needing a wreath for my door ever since I moved…um…2 months ago? I had several qualifications: inexpensive (read: less than $5) seasonally appropriate (which is why I haven’t hung my Christmas wreath up…) pretty (basically just something I liked) I saw some really pretty lima bean wreaths around the ‘net, but when I…

Kitchen Help
As the title of this post suggests, I’ve decided to hire kitchen help. Things are getting stressful and I can’t take the whole “3-meals-a-day” thing anymore. I don’t even know what to say after starting off with such a corny joke. Except maybe – no, I’m not hiring any kitchen help, so no need to…

False Advertising
That may sound like a strange title, but it’s true. You see, usually when I go yard-saling (is that even a word? probably not, because it’s underlined with a red squiggly line.), I just drive around looking for signs. I live near lots of different neighborhoods, so my method usually has pretty good results. This…

Allow me to tell you the story: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My daughter was napping (sometimes a rare occurrence) and I was working on blogg-y stuff. I was in the middle of updating some things on here: when…

What to Do with My Behemoth-Sized Wall
I have this large wall in my multi-purpose room (my office, laundry, dining & living area:)) that has been bare for a while now. I used to have a large bookshelf in front of it, but thankfully, we were able to find space in our bedroom for behemoth bookshelf. That was definitely a good decision,…

Ribbon Flowers
Hey there! And I hope you had a marvelous weekend! We sure did – the weather was gorgeous here, so we took advantage of it and went to the park…in between the time when my hubby was working on a paper for his class. My little girl LOVES being outside! We have a playground right…

Lampshade – from drab to fab
Heeeeeellooooooo, and I hope you had a marvelous weekend! I am so excited about this post for a couple reasons: 1) It’s a cute project that makes my little girl’s room even cuter 🙂 2) the main reason, though, is this – remember those 4 pics I shared with you in one of my very…
