My First Xmas Project of the Season
October 28, 2016 / BY Okio B Designs
I know Monday is Halloween, but who isn't already thinking about Christmas projects? I know I am. I'm battling my first cold of the season, so I had some down time this week to do some crafting. I used an old spaghetti tin to make this pretty. First I added some sheet music as my background. Then I picked the pretty French image (from the Graphics Fairy) and glued that on the sheet music. Next...
Mystery Solved
October 25, 2016 / BY Okio B Designs
I'm happy to report that I have FINALLY figured out why I couldn't comment on many of your blogs. And it did not take a Ouija board to do it.

The Ouija board was a garage sale find. I made the bottles and chalkboard frame a couple of years ago. Here's another look. Glad I got her all decorated because this past weekend is a blur between pumpkin picking... And getting...

Once the cooler weather starts, I love to curl up on the couch under a blanket with a good book. This week I had two great books to read. It's not secret that I am a HUGE fan of Ikea. I love trolling Pinterest for IKEA hacks (seriously, don't you too?!). I Modify IKEA by Elyse Major and Charlotte Rivers offers a ton of ideas that I'd never seen before in easy to follow DIY...
French Market Halloween Tags

Whipped up these cute Halloween tags over the weekend. I couldn't stop at just the tags, so I made some stickers too. Both sets can be found in my Etsy. Jeanine ...
