I know I've been a little MIA lately. I wish I had some fabulous reason - like I jetted off to Paris or that we won the lotto. Sadly, the reason is a lot less interesting. It's the weather. I'm not a winter girl and this year's weather has certainly put me in a funk. I've had zero inspiration and zero energy. I've long suspected that I have SAD (seasonal affective disorder). I'm trying to...
Run - don't walk! - to your nearest Dollar Store for these cute little buckets. I mean, seriously, how adorable are they? I picked up two which I plan on using on our porch or patio this spring. And in other news, for some reasons your comments are not coming through on Blogger. I've been trying to figure out what the issue is to no avail. Until then, feel free to leave a comment on...
Have you seen Yoplait's new Oui Yogurts at your local supermarket?! I was drawn to the glass jars they are being sold in and since I've been on a health kick, I picked up two of their "French-style" yogurts.

Anyone else itching for spring? I really can't complain. It hasn't been a terrible winter here. We had one major snowstorm. Still, this time every year I start getting cabin fever and just want to be outside. While I wait for the official start of the season, I started working on some spring-inspired projects. This little black wood frame is from Kohl's (you might remember the other one I did with a B monogram). I decided...
I've been experimenting with my Cricut and adhesive-backed vinyl lately. I purchased a few new cartridges from Amazon and couldn't wait to experiment with them. First I painted this random wood piece from a flower press. I simply painted it white and then used the Anna's Fancy Lettering cartridge to spell out home. It got a little tricky peeling off the letters and getting them even on the wood, but I think I did a...
