Hello friends! With Valentine's Day right around the corner, it got me wondering: What do you do for the big day? Do you and your significant other go all-out with a weekend away? Just a night on the town? Or do you have a quiet night at home? Do you exchange gifts? Do you give gifts to your kiddos? When Topher and I first got married, like everyone else, we tried to go out on Valentine's Day because it felt kind of anti-climactic not to do anything. We quickly found out that ... VIEW POST
Valentine’s Day Outfit Ideas
Super Easy Heart Pom Pom Pillows
Today, I thought I would share my super easy Heart Pom Pom Pillows with you! They are perfect for a little girl's room or as a Valentine's Day gift. All you need are some old pillows (or pillow covers), a hot glue gun, and some felt. I picked-up these pillow covers at Hobby Lobby for $9.99 each, but I used their online 40% off coupons which made them a bit better. I then inserted a couple of old pillows that I had laying around, and then went to work. ... VIEW POST
Ruffle Trim Heart
Happy Friday everyone!!! Thank you all so much for such a great response to my Valentine's Day Home Tour! I did have a lot of requests for tutorials on my rag garland, PomPom Heart Pillow, V-Day Topiaries, and my Ruffle Trim Heart. Today I am here with the Ruffle Trim Heart -- and the others will be coming next week. It has been a brutally cold week with two snow days for the unnamed child (which she was super excited about). We have a huge hill (by Kansas standards) by our house, and she ... VIEW POST

3-Tiered Flower Wreath
Happy Monday everyone!!! I'm so glad you came by! I have a pretty 3-Tiered Flower Wreath to show you! I hope you all had some fun Super Bowl parties yesterday! I had a massive amount of work left on the big project I have for you tomorrow, and after having no sleep and working every second of the day for two days, I was way too tired to go anywhere. I was working in some Cirque du soleil-ish positions, and my neck and back are so angry. I would have been more than excited to heat up a ... VIEW POST
Yarn Heart Wreath
Hi everyone! I hope everyone is thawing out. I heard some great stories of kindness during these blizzard like conditions, but I love the story of the Chick-fil-A owner in Birmingham. The storm got so bad, he sent his workers home only to find them back at the store shortly after as they got stuck and had to abandon their cars. The highway and streets were filled with people who had been stuck, some for up to 7 hours without food. The Chick-fil-A owner and his staff started making food and ... VIEW POST
Yard Sale Picture to Flower Art
Over the summer I found this picture for a $1. Now, I'm sure that when you look at this, you think a dollar might have been too much to pay for this picture of some old guy (who I think might be Ponce De Leon, but Topher thinks it's Copernicus -- but that doesn't roll off the tongue, so we are just going to stick with Ponce). While I love my Spanish conquistador as much as the next guy, Ponce definitely wasn't fitting in with my decor, so he had to go undercover. ... VIEW POST
