Hello lovelies + happy Friday! We’re in birthday party planning/school volunteer mode today, but wanted to drop in to share a freebie of the month with all of you! These are three simple freebies that print out to an 8 x 8. They would make fun tags, simple bunting for your next crafty gal’s night,…

make me smile : may 2012 edition
Once again, I’m a little tardy for the month. {Does that word make anyone else giggle? It’s always sounded so officially librarianesque circa 1985 to me.} But anyway, I’m late. It’s now officially June…and these are my faves for May. Better late than never, right? We’re in the throes of completing a playhouse for the…

room design + decor 101 : the process
I recently received a question from a friend, and it only took me ten forevers to get to it, with all the craziness of the holidays. But she’s officially on the house hunt and looking for some new digs. On her quest to find the right home, she had some questions, and they went a lil somethin’ like this:…
how to build a barn door
A few weeks ago, we completed our christmas mantel. And with it, our barn door. And today {It took me long enough} but I thought I’d share a little on how we made it. Obviously, it doesn’t have to be seasonal, and we plan on using it elsewhere after the holidays have passed. This was…
