As a teacher, I have read many children’s books and naturally have quite a book collection. Of all the wonderful books I’ve read, some of my favorite books are those written by Eric Carle. I LOVE his artwork and simplicity. I could go on and on about it. When Pottery Barn came out with an […]
Confessions
I have a confession… Of all the crafty, diy things that I love, there is one thing I hate. Sewing. It’s not that I haven’t been taught or tried, though. When I was younger, my mom tried to teach me to sew. She even bought me a sewing book for kids that made it “simple […]
Cabinet Organizer Score!
Our little family headed to Lowe’s this weekend to pick up a couple more supplies for the table redo. Hubby likes to tell our little one that we’re going to the “Man Store” and cheer and get him all excited about it. Of course once we get there and Little Man realizes that it’s boring […]
The Start of the Crazy Organizing Spree
When we sold our house back in March, we were pursuing purchasing a different house than the one we’re in now. But, that house was a short sale and ended up going into foreclosure before we heard back from the bank if our offer was accepted. Boo. So, two weeks before closing on the sale […]
New Shutters and a Table Update
Well…we’re still working on the table. Oh brother. So far we’ve cleaned, sanded, primed, and applied the first coat of paint. We still need to do the second coat of paint, the poly coats, and reupholster the chairs. We’ve slowed to a stop for now because I pulled out my neck. In my sleep. Not kidding–how […]
Japplesauce
When friends with little kids come to our house for dinner, we usually have some Japplesauce for the kids in case they don’t want the adults yummy salad. (Mom!!! Lettuce, broccoli, vegetables?! The horror! Well, at least that’s what my little one thinks. Haha!) Japplesauce is a mixture of Jello and applesauce that you can […]
Let’s Break for a Treat
I’ve seen this recipe for toffee mentioned many times on Joy’s Hope blog (awesome blog, btw), but just finally got around to making it. Ummmm, why did it take me so long?! Easy peasy and super delish! Try it! Click here for recipe!
A REALLY Smokey Situation
Yesterday, I posted about our smoke damaged table and chairs that we are re-doing. Apparently smoke smell was just not enough exposure for us… Last night, we were sitting in our living room chatting after Jeremy came home from work when someone ran up to the door, frantically knocking, then informing us that their was […]
A Smokey Situation
When Jeremy and I first purchased our new home, we knew we would be in the market to purchase a table for our formal dining room. In our old house, we only used the dining room to eat, and had converted the breakfast nook into a play area for Little One’s toys. In our new […]
Blog Beginnings
Welcome to my new blog! I’m excited to have a place to record our latest projects! My hubby and I just purchased a new home, so we have a blank slate to work with and lots of projects up our sleeves. Our first house was a foreclosure that we fixed up and made home. We loved that […]
