I’m re-running this post from last September, because, I am going to submit the pumpkins and the baby shower to the CSI Fall-themed contest this week (plus a couple of other old-but-good pumpkin projects–here & here).

You know I love the weekly CSI project challenges! This week’s theme is spray paint and the winner actually gets a spray paint package from Krylon! Competition is fierce, because really, who in blogland hasn’t spruced up a boring picture frame with a can of paint or made over a tacky chair? I actually have…

All next week I will be having some summer fun visiting family in Utah, so while I’m gone, I’m going to be running “Summer Fun Giveaways” here on the blog. I’ve got several great items lined up! (I may have space for one or two more giveaways. If you have something that fits the bill,…
The folks at Love and Luck Greetings sent me some of their very cool cards to check out for Father’s Day. Who knew that Swarovski crystals and glitter could be so manly? They have several fun designs, each with genuine Swarovski crystals and fun and meaningful messages inside like this one: INSIDE: “I’ll Always Look…
