As much as I craft you would think I could make a decent ribbon hairbow.  But the thing is - I really stink at making ribbon hairbows.  I just can't seem to get it right - even when I follow really great tutorials.  So instead, I dug through my fabric stash and created this little bow. I love ...

Hey!  Well, I've been changing things up a bit around here.  A new look and a new sense of organization.  Now all of my posts will fit into one of four categories - which you can browse using the tabs beneath my header. Decorate. Create. Educate. Nourish.We have decided to homeschool in the fall - ...

This is certainly not a new idea.  I don't claim to have made it up.  I'm just sharing my version.  I made this as a gift for a girl who just turned 12.  I've seen lots of gorgeous versions online like this one on Amazon, but I needed to make something a little bit more youthful looking - so ...

It's that lovely time of year - fireworks, berry cobblers, cookouts, and family gatherings. Hooray for the red, white, and blue! Charlotte needed a new dress for the 4th of July. We had snagged a Tommy Hilfiger dress shirt at our local thrift store, and I decided it would make the perfect ...

Happy Friday friends! Today I have the world's easiest dress for you - and it is so comfortable (and I had a coupon for the fabric so it only cost $13)! and let me just say - modeling is hard. That's probably why those Anthro models always look so grumpy and tired. So, I started ...

In case you're feeling intimidated by Friday's post - this is a really easy, fun way to make your grocery bags your own. Those reusable bags you can buy at walmart, target, etc are usually really cheap and all of the hard work is done for you!  So this is how I embellished one of mine. ...
