I’m crashing the end of Thrifty Decor Chick’s Goodwill Party, in the hopes that I can count on all of you brilliant bloggers and readers for some good advice about my Goodwill find. I found the lovely lamp at Goodwill a while back for a mere $5. I really like the shape and style. I…
The Nester is hosting a Lampaplooza party today and The Shabby Nest is having a Frugal Friday party tomorrow. So this seems like the perfect time to share some of my frugal finds that I have been meaning to share. (Don’t you just love her button? Oh, that’s right. I designed that.)Alright. How much do…
I need some input. Ideas. I know, I’m the idea lady, right? But there are so many brilliant, creative people out there, that I know you can make my life easier right now! I am the Craft Director for our church’s girls’ camp (teenage girls) this summer. Our theme is “Go Navy” which stands…
Have you missed me? Probably not with Trina’s awesome posts (scroll down). I’ve been just a little bit busy… …with this… …and this… …and this… …and this… …and this… …and this… (O.K. so this one was really all my mom, and she helped with lots of the other projects, too.) …and a bunch more stuff…

We had kind of an early Valentine’s celebration with the kids this weekend. My sister-in-law brought over everything to make sugar cookies with the kids and we turned it into a crafty party. We needed food, so I decided to try heart-shaped pizzas. It was pretty easy since I used the ready made dough from…
If you have been reading my blog for a while, you know that I sometimes refer to my parents as the “miracle workers” because when they come to town, miracles happen. Projects that have only been visions in my mind are miraculously brought to life. And things get done in a fraction of the time…
So, in the blogging world, is it fashionable to come late to a party, or is it rude? Because I am doing it every time! But you know I hate to miss a good party, so I dash over for a little bit, anyway! Today (it’s today for 20 more minutes!), Southern Hospitality is hosting…
I was really excited about the gifts my kids gave their teachers this year for Christmas. (The pictures really don’t do them justice.) Some friends and I got together and made scrabble tile necklaces (using this fantastic tutorial), for all kind of friends and siblings, etc. (You may remember this Insanity Zone from my home…
