A Work in Progress…

I love a project. Something I can dream about and slowly work on here and there. Even as a mother of four there are little moments throughout the day when my creative side gets an opportunity to break free…in the car, when the kids have finally snuggled in for the night, in those sweet moments of play (the ones […]
{Tutorial} 4th of July Table Runner
A couple days ago we broke out our 4th of July decorations, which mainly consist of things that are handed to us at our town’s 4th of July parade. I hadn’t put much effort into this holiday, until now! Chloe insisted that we have something festive on our table and I agreed. So together we […]
Decorating for Easter…better late than never!
In the last couple days my crafty side came peeking through. It’s been hiding for a couple months now. I blame the pregnancy because it’s really not like me to avoid my sewing machine or anything else creative. Especially my camera. But it happened. In that time I have organized the heck out of things […]
Chloe’s little kitty
For her birthday last year, Chloe’s Aunt Season gave her the cut outs for two stuffed kitties. Season has made several of these for our girls and the girls LOVE them to the point where they fight over them frequently and have made them the source of contention between them many times over.
Willow’s Birthday Dress
Willow’s birthday is rapidly approaching. She’s going to be 4 next week, which is just crazy to me. She’s always been my tiny little peanut. This past year, she has blossomed tremendously inside and out and I am so enjoying getting to know this beautiful new side of her. Each year for their birthdays, I […]
Hunter’s Owl
We have a precious new life in our family. His name is Hunter and he is my dear, sweet nephew. I spent a lot of time trying to think of a gift for Mr. Hunter. He’s the third child in line behind two sisters. So, he needed something boyish or at least something blue. I […]
Autumn Leaf Garland
We’ve been busily decorating our house with our fall decor. Every year it gets more and more fun as my little helpers get old enough to take part in the changing of the seasonal decor. Each one lends a hand as we get out the box of autumn things and decide where everything will […]
Laelia’s Birthday Dress
Perhaps you’ve noticed a theme for the week. Laelia. Today, I sewed her dress for her birthday party on Saturday. I am really excited about how it turned out. I made a little bow to match. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that she doesn’t pull out of her hair. She’s not a fan of bows, […]
Willow’s Shirt Dress
My girls often raid my closet and try on my clothes, which I find to be adorable. Yesterday Willow found my pink shirt (one that I never wear) and she decided to wear it as a dress.
Projects
Projects, projects, projects….I always love a project! And it’s a good thing, because they are everywhere. The living room has finally been painted…phew! I usually do the majority of the painting, but I’m happy to say that Scott did most of it this time. We have more to do though. Included in the project is […]
