IKEA table wars

I love my husband dearly, but must admit that we don’t always see eye to eye on everything. For one, if you have been reading this blog for any length of time, you will have guessed that I value aesthetics, beauty, design, etc. How things look is very important to me. My husband is all […]

Water Rockets

I found a great post on the water rockets I’m thinking of doing with the kids, here. They did even more than I was planning to make them look great. I’m still a little fuzzy on the physics of it all, but that is my husband’s department. I’m exclusively in the aesthetics department.

Baby Scrapbook Idea

I just read this idea of a fun approach to a baby scrapbook, and I think I will try and do it for my little one’s first b-day in Oct. I think I will design it digitally, so I can have it printed in a hard bound book for her to look at and read. […]

Back to School–Creativity

Today’s idea comes from my friend, Kenise, who gets my vote for nicest mom ever! She has been known to cut her daughters’ sandwiches into hearts and other fun shapes, just so they know she cares (and to get rid of the unpopular crusts). She showed us that if you take some contact paper and […]

Summer Fun Photo Contest

Loving This!

So my little sister is about ready to pop with baby #2 (a boy), and I was looking for ideas because I really should (read: might get to it before Christmas) do something to welcome her bundle of joy. Martha has this slide show of homemade baby gifts. That is where I found this, which […]

Clearly Cool (and crazy)!

Check out my friend, Becky’s blog, all of you serious scrapbookers, for all of the details on this “cool” acrylic album. Super cute, and quite challenging, as everything is visible, through the clear pages. It all has to work together and you can’t necessarily hide the messy back sides of things. She chose the perfect […]

Family Olympics

08*08*08They are coming!This is a party I have been dreaming up in my head for a long time. I’m just not sure my new house will be at all company-ready in time to throw this bash. So I’m going to lay out all of my ideas here. It will either help me to get ready […]
