Wow, so for the last three weeks I have been off the radar again. (We had my parents here for two full weeks over Thanksgiving and I was pretty much banned from the computer except for business schtuff.) So anyway, at the beginning of Nov we had our date night group get together. Each time we get together we choose some sort of theme for the activity. This month Angie & Aaron were in charge and they chose “Traditions”. Angie’s…
So for the past several months I’ve devoted a fair amount of time to a fabulous little website called Pinterest. Do you ? If you do, you know the amount of time that gets lost while surfing the fabulous eye candy of recipes, jewelry, craft projects, style ideas…. if you don’t well, you’re in for a major treat! Just a click away, Pinterest can transport you to the wilds of imagination and help you crawl out of your creative funk/slump….
Happy Halloween friends! Hope this post finds you getting ready to go out a-spookin’ tonight with your kids or friends! Tonight Brent and I will be chillin at home with some movies, caramel apples and cider and answering the door for trick or treaters… when we run out of candy we will hide out in the basement. 🙂 A couple of weeks ago I went out “witching” with some girlfriends in Salt Lake City. There’s a shopping center called Gardner’s…
Hey guys! It’s been a LOOONG crazy summer! I know I’ve been MIA entirely too long. We have had so much going on around here and quite frankly, I decided to cut a few things out of my life for a little while and not stress about them. It’s been a nice vacation from the blog, but I think I am ready to get back into some crafty action again! We’re still in the process of remodeling our kitchen. We…
Hello friends! I bet you thought you’d never hear from me again. But alas, I’ve wandered back into Blog Land again. I haven’t really been very far away, though. I walk past this computer day in and day out, but I just haven’t sat down to write anything in aaaages. I don’t even know where to start again. SOOOO much has been going on here at our house since I last left you with the pics of the start of…
{This was supposed to post on Monday but I had some troubles with Blogger and uploading from WLW. } We’re still in full construction mode here at our house.. all of the destruction is done (minus the removal of some old floor tiles) but for the most part we’re gearing up for the “put-it-back-together” phase. The kitchen is mostly gutted (pics to come soon) and we have an inspection tomorrow PASSED our inspection YESTERDAY for our 4 way (electrical, plumbing,…
I saw an idea for a vintage cone on The Graphics Fairy blog a while back and decided that I wanted to make one, too. I’m finding myself drawn to vintagey goodness lately. Anyway, I dug out some styrofoam cones that I had stashed away in my craft closet for a Christmas project that I never got to, cut it in half, and started playing around with paper and Mod Podge. All images are courtesy of The Graphics Fairy. If…
Hey friends! I’m late in the day posting the winners. I was off having fun this afternoon getting my greys cut and covered and adding a different kind of color to my hair… (Forgive the awful webcam pics. LOL!) I added a couple of turquoise feather extensions to my hair! I’ve been thinking about it and decided to do it this time. They are pretty much just like reg hair extensions, held in with a crimp bead, and you…
I’ve been sitting (well not literally) on these goodies for a long time now waiting for just the right time to do a giveaway… I wanted to do it last post, but my Archiver’s projects for NSD took over. I’m not sure when National Stamping Month is, though this would be the perfect give away for that, but I don’t want to wait…. SOOOoOOOoO dear crafty friends… would you like to win some of these fabulous red rubber stamps? I…
Yes, belated again. LOL! I was too busy actually PLAYING on NSD too blog about my crafty projects (not to mention my laptop has died and needs a new motherboard so I didn’t bring it with me) so I’m going to blog about the day’s festivities today! And how fitting that a post about National Scrapbooking Day on a crafty blog is my FIVE HUNDREDTH POST!!!! YAY ME! A while back I went to an Archiver’s customer appreciation crop and…
