Do it yourself table runner
While my mom was here she wanted to work on an easy project. After reading a post about do it yourself table runners on A Thoughtful Place, we decided to give it a try! This project is perfect because it requires absolutely no sewing...and it's also inexpensive. Score! You will need a 6x9 canvas drop cloth. I found mine at Home Depot for under ... Read More
The one where we wear matching hats
My mom came out this weekend for a little visit. She lives in California (where I grew up!) and it is always fun to have her out here with me, even if it is only for a few days. I did feel a little bad for her though...it was 75 degrees in California and -6 in Michigan! Yikes. We were so cold all weekend. Our hair even froze when we took Wrigley ... Read More
What I’ve been obsessing over lately….
Ever find something you love and you can't stop obsessing over it. Well, I do that all the time. Like Dexter. On Tuesday I shared that it is my new favorite show. I've finished season one and now can't wait to see season two! My mom said that she sees them filming the Dexter all the time. She lives in California....so Miami it is not. Lately ... Read More

I have four episodes left until I finish the season and I can't ... Read More
The weekend is over…and other not so exciting stuff
Good morning everyone! Today in Michigan it is a chilly 14 degrees...I hope it's warmer where you are! This weekend we got a ton of snow, so we spent a lot of time indoors sipping hot chocolate and watching movies. I love weekends like that. We rented The Social Network.....I thought it was good but the husband thought it was way too long and ... Read More
Family Room Update
Remember when I shared our family room make-over? I love how it looked for Christmas. But once I had to take down all of the Christmas decorations, it looked a little....well sad. So I did what any budget savvy girl would do. I shopped the house! Shopping the house means you "shop" around what you already have and pull items that you ... Read More

Yarn Wrapped Letter
I keep seeing this adorable yarn wrapped letters on different blogs and thought I would try to make my own. Similar items have been sold at stores for upwards of $25! Yikes! So when I was feeling creative and looking for a project, I knew this inexpensive idea would be perfect. All you need is yarn and a letter of your choice. I also ended up ... Read More
