The kitchen is a place to come together before our day starts. Where we gather with one another at the end of a school and work day. Our kitchen is also our craft room, paint area and play-doh station. Homework is done among the dishes. Crafts are glued together while I cook. Dancing takes place. […]

Hello!! Happy December!! This time of year I am a crafting machine- I love crafting- and always feel most inspired during this season. Our fridge is easily seen from all of the main parts of our home- usually it’s adorned with art drawings, calendars and whatever else the girls or me decides to throw up […]
I’m always down for a good crafting session- and I’ve had this idea on my mind for the last few weeks! When I saw this Snowy Forest Christmas Doormat on Anthropologie’s site I knew I wanted it but also thought- hmm pretty sure I could make something very similar for way less money! So this […]
Hello friends!!! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! We had a birthday slumber party complete with all the birthday slumber party things. I bought groceries, cleaned, organized and did laundry – as well as a little more decorating for Christmas! Tried a new healthy oatmeal recipe that I spit out into our kitchen […]
