    DIY Scalloped Photo Frame + Giveaway!

    Today I want to share my new favorite family photo. We took this picture over the summer in Michigan with the beautiful lake and sailboats behind us. This photo reminds me of how much I love the lakes of Michigan. So when the kind people at Canvas Factory reached out to me, I knew I…

    Homemade Wrapping Paper

    Do you guys have all your Christmas gifts wrapped already? I do! We’re celebrating a week early because we’re headed out of town Christmas weekend so that forced me to be ahead of the game this year. I love being creative with wrapping paper. Normally, I don’t try to be creative with my kids since…

    Today I want to share some of my favorite ornaments from my Christmas tree. I made these a few years ago but just love seeing them each year. You can also update them by adding new photos, but I like looking at pictures of my kids when they were so little. These are super simple…

    Melted Crayon Ornaments

    My kids love being involved in any part of Christmas decorating. And it’s sometimes tough for me to let the kids be involved because I’m such a perfectionist, but this is a great project for them and it was so fun.  I used some clear glass bulbs leftover from ornaments I made a few years…

    Lean for 2016: Laundry Room

    I love laundry rooms. In our last house, our laundry was in the unfinished side of our basement. So it was not a place I would want to spend a lot of time. There were spider webs and it wasn’t that bright. So I always took my laundry somewhere else to fold and sort. Now,…

    When we moved in to our new home, I let the kids help design their rooms… I had some ideas but we worked together to create a design they would like. I wanted to use Elly’s old dresser but she got a new bed and other new furniture. She liked the color of her old…

    Diy Chicken Wire Display Frame

    IMG_7810 IMG_7821 IMG_7815 IMG_7807 I still have a few tweaks I am doing in my master bedroom before I consider it done. I made this chicken wire frame especially for this wall. I wanted something with wood to help bring some color to the room that is mostly greys and whites. Wood always adds a…
