I am so excited to be able to show you the office chair we made-over! Not just because I think it is so fresh and fun, but because it means it is finally finished! This is a makeover that honestly was begun about a year ago when my parents were visiting. A number of delays, [...]

Last week, I showed you the sweet surprise anniversary party I helped to throw. The highlight of the decorations was the crepe paper streamers that I ruffled in various combos and laid across the white linens. I’m pretty in love with ruffled streamers.

I’m excited my sister, Trina, decided to share another fun Christmas project with you! This one involves a little bit of sewing, *gasp*, but it’s simple enough, I could probably do it!

This was supposed to be a post showing you a fabulously finished patriotic tablecloth. Instead, I am posting about exactly 1 half of a fabulous patriotic tablecloth. My sewing machine and I have some issues–mainly I’m mechanically challenged and little things like changing thread and bobbins slow me down. I’m sure (once my husband gets [...]
