How excited were you when Target officially unveiled the Hearth & Hand line from Joanna and Chip Gaines?  I popped into our local store over the weekend and spied this pretty Merry & Bright framed print.  I loved the idea so much that I decided to make my own version. After finding this great wreath image from the Graphics Fairy, I got busy trying to find a similar font to use for my Merry &...

I started putting out some Halloween decor earlier this week.  Nevermind that it was 90 degrees.  A girl's gonna do what a girl's gonna do.  You might remember these painted wine bottles from last year.  I'm still loving their haunting Halloween look.  This is on our front porch. This doormat is from Pottery Barn.  Not super happy as it ripped when I was taking it out of the packaging.  And now it's sold out.  Grrr...Can...
