My sister seems to throw a lot of baby showers. And since we don’t live in the same state, there is a lot I can’t help her with, but I always seem to get involved in the brainstorming, and design of the shower. We’ve loved the idea of doing something centered around children’s books, ever…
Yesterday morning, I stepped outside my front door, and for the first time in months, the air felt cool. Not cool, by most of your standards, but refreshing and crisp, and several degrees cooler than the temperature inside the house (82 degrees). If you don’t live in an inferno like Arizona, you may not be…
I think I missed “talk like a pirate day,” but I still promised to share some of the behind the scenes, DIY tips from my pirate party. It might be fun to go pirate for your Halloween party this year. (See this cool party for inspiration). We delivered messages in bottles for our pirate party…
I’m borrowing the name of this cool blog, for my post, today, because I need some help with the color orange. (And I get the best help from my brilliant readers!) My sister was very inspired by this living room she found at Decor Pad. We love the punches of orange against the cool blue….
So much to blog…so little time, when I am not feeling too pukey, or playing Starfall with my not-yet-2-year-old. And yes! You are all so smart! The reason I am feeling pukey, is my newest creative venture–a new addition to our family in the very first part of May. So, this is officially my excuse…
So I’ve been spending a lot of time an energy on a new creative project. I imagine it will continue to occupy much of my attention for quite a while, but it won’t be ready for it’s big reveal until the first part of May. Any guesses what it is?
It be time for me account of me pirate party, mates! No, I don’t think I can write an entire post in pirate speak. You’ll just have to enjoy the occasional pirate outburst. I’m going to give you the guest’s view of the party today. Next week, I’ll break it down and give you the…
I am happy to report that the pirate party was a success, despite an uncharacteristically strong rainstorm, that hindered some of the party preparations. I am told that some of the party guests continued to play “pirates” through the afternoon at their own homes, so I think that means they had fun. It will take…
What do baking paper… Bermuda sand… A messy flour and water mixture… A cut-open chest cooler… And a goofy husband with crazy teeth… …have to do with a pirate party? Any guesses? Don’t worry, all will be revealed soon! What all of this is to say, is that I’ve got tons to do to get…
