Who else has started decorating for St. Patrick's Day?! I don't do a lot for this particular holiday (even though I'm 1/4 Irish!), but I do enjoy what we have. The gold coins, shamrocks and hats from this picture are all from Dollar Tree. The printables are courtesy of The Graphics Fairy. You've seen this tiered tray before. It's from Target and I have used it for every holiday since I scored it. It sits...

Valentine's Day is fast approaching! I've had my most of my decorations up since January and I've been loving every minute of them. I didn't make a lot of new pieces this year. I've been using Scrabble tiles and free printables. And I always display my collection of vintage Valentine's Day cards. I'm enjoying the simplicity of it right now. Maybe it's because I'm getting older or because my boys are getting older. Or maybe...

Whoa, my first post of 2020! I don't know about you, but I took a little bit of a blog break.

I never ever, ever pass up a box of Scrabble at a garage sale. Those little tiles (and tile holders) are perfect for DIY projects no matter the season. In fact, if you've been following my blog awhile, you've definitely seen the many ways I've used these handy-dandy word tiles. And this Christmas season is no exception. Scrabble tiles are literally in just about every room of the house. I might have a slight obsession...

(Photo courtesy of Ornaments in the Green, Etsy) I don't know about you, but I'm gearing up for some serious holiday shopping. I've been busy bookmarking, pinning and making "wish" lists for everyone on my shopping list. I'm sharing a few gems that caught my eye. First up is this adorable Personalized Pajama Party Family Ornament from Ornaments in the Green. Every year we purchase a personalized ornament for our tree. I immediately fell in...

Or should I say White Wednesday with a touch of green?! This Joyful sign is a Target find ($5). I love the touch of green and how it perfectly fits this upcycled wood tote. It's happily sitting on our kitchen counter. Jeanine ...
