This isn’t going to be a terribly long post but if for no other reason than to generate some I ‘got back on the horse’ (or is it ‘got back on the saddle’? neither sounds right in my head) good vibes in my brain I wanted to put SOMETHING up. I mean, for Pete’s sake […]

DIY Lemon Cake Body Scrub- a recipe
My dear friend Stacy just moved into a new house & we decided to meet at her new place before our girl’s night out last night. Thankfully, I knew of the perfect last minute housewarming gift. Chances are you have everything you need to make a homemade body scrub in your pantry already. For this […]
DIY Princess Aurora Glitter Shoes
Ok, so I know they’re my kids & there’s a smidge of bias but these girls CRACK ME UP in this video! Click on the video tutorial below to see how Sam, with a bit of help from me, turns some plain ballet flats into a pair of very special pink glitter Sleeping Beauty shoes. […]
Beach Table Makeover
This has been a remodel in the making for about…ohhh, two years. It was one of those projects that I half finished & then never got back to. It’s been sitting, half spray-painted, in our bedroom for TWO YEARS. So much for a sanctuary. After our beach trip I came home inspired & found a […]

“Please go back to bed” clock
Lately Sam has been waking up earlier & earlier. I remember the days when she would quietly play in her room or watch a tv show in my bed until a decent waking hour but those are no more. When she’s up…everyone’s up. I’ll glance at the clock, see it starts with a “6” ,or […]
Make a tie-dye heart dress from a men’s undershirt (video!)
Remember those cute little tie-dye heart dresses from last week’s Tulip tie dye post? I thought the tutorial would be best demonstrated with video. I split it into 3 parts however that way you don’t have to sit through 15 minutes of stuff you don’t need if you’re just looking for one step in particular. […]
Paintbrush Pillow
When someone mentions ‘tie-dye’ what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Clothing & accessories right? That’s what I immediately thought of when I was trying to decide what to do with the awesome box of tie-dye goodness I received from Tulip. Then I thought, hm, what would be an unconventional way of using tie-dye? […]
