I love this stuff. Truly, I do. Every time I get a new order from Grove Collaborative, I cheer a little. I mostly love the scents of the Meyer’s dish soap. I am not a huge fan of cleaning, AT ALL. I don’t really love (even like) to wash dishes. Having dish soap that is super bubbly and smells delightful can make all the difference. I am not even kidding. …

This post is sponsored but all of the ideas are my own. Tennis is a game that has been a part of my life since I was a kid. To be honest, I was never any good, BUT my older brother was amazing. I grew up playing against the garage door in hope of one day being able to beat him. That never happened. I loved to go to his …

First of all, let me share which three dies in the calendar …
I whipped up a quick 2017 New Year’s Printable a few days ago and am thrilled to share it with you FREE. 2017 is going to be a whole new year to create new possibilities and dreams. I like that! I received in an awesome holiday gift from Olive and Cocoa (sent from Ellison). The silver stars are hard candy and the gold are chocolates. This was the entire gift. I …
For some crazy reason, I am a little obsessed with snow globes this year. I made this one for my neighbor’s one year old daughter who also loves them! She can play with it because the pieces on it can be manipulated and moved around. I started with a pile of felt from Kunin Group. The felt that you can buy by the yard is best because you can get …

When I originally designed the twelve dies that make up a “calendar set” …
This post was sponsored by Oriental Trading but all of the ideas and opinions are mine. With eight Girl Scouts sleeping over and spending their evening making items to sell at their first craft fair the next day, I decided it was great idea to make theme elves to center our festivities. Oriental Trading supplied the most amazing things that really made it darling, special and fun! The table was …
DIY Snow Globes Over the weekend I had a lot of fun creating snow globes to put around the house for the holiday season. The inspiration for this DIY Snow Globe project came while stuffing the inside of a beanbag with Poly-Pellets and found that they reminded me of snow. I am excited to share that they worked perfectly. To get started, I gathered up some things from my studio …
