Baby, It’s Cold Outside… A Scarf Inspired by Frozen
While much of the country is freeezing their bums off covered in a blanket of snow, here in Colorado we have been enjoying a lovely, sunny 57* – 63* most of the past week. (Mind you, we had a visit from the great Polar Vortex just prior to this faux Spring, so it’s been much welcomed, and a tease, because I know what is coming….) Remember this sneak peek? I know I promised I was working on the post for…
Spice, Spice, Baby
Since moving to Colorado I have been working part time as a professional organizer with my friend, Christa, at Peace Together Spaces. It has been a lot of fun and fills my need to “sort and purge”. Organizing other people’s spaces is a lot of fun and easier for me than organizing my own spaces (no emotional attachment to things). Today I wrote a post for the PTS blog… let’s get those spice cabinets organized, peeps! Check it out by…
Going Bat Stick Crazy Around Here
And now for the excuses….. I have not died. Or driven off the face of the earth. (Yes, it looks like we might drive off the face of the earth on this road up to Pike’s Peak… oy) I have just been living a very crazy life here in beautiful Colorado. To catch you up on everything would make for a thick novel so instead I will sum it up. 1) Had a GREAT My Creative Escape retreat here in…
Dance In The Rain
I have not been diligent about blogging lately. I’m trying to figure out this house and get things settled in it so that it feels more like a home. We are also gearing up to put lights in the ceiling in my studio, so I’m packing up the goodies I just unpacked to make room for a little mess. Yes, I know, crazy, there’s not much out to put away.. just boxes and my main workspace to cover with plastic. …
The Derby… Blingsta Style
So I have already failed my goal of blogging once per week. I have no excuses. Really. Immediately after we moved here, like the first or second Sunday we were at church, I was asked to be the Bear Cub Den Leader. (Yes I hear you laughing… stop. Really. Not funny. Ok, so it’s hilarious. Laugh all you want.) At first I was all, “What the what? What are you smoking?” And, “I am SO not a little boy person….
Gelatin + Acrylic Paint + Paper = ART!
We’re slowing getting settled in to our new home here in Colorado. I haven’t crafted in quite some time…. in fact, nearly every craft supply or tool I own is still packed away neatly in boxes… BUT, earlier this week end of last week I did dig my desk out from under the chaos of boxes and furniture that is currently occupying my future craft room. We figured out some good configurations for workstations and are deciding on color for…
An Inky Update

Crafting with Food: Thai Fresh Spring Rolls
Hello sweet friends! Our move to Colorado is coming along nicely… We found a home and will be living in a beautiful town called Castle Rock which is just about 12 minutes south of Brent’s work and 30ish minutes south of Denver. We will be closing on the home Nov 16th and moving out there that week. Brent is currently commuting to Colorado.. which totally stinketh. Our Utah house is now listed and we are anxiously waiting for a buyer. …
From Couch to 500….
*Warning* LOADS of Photos… This summer I have focused on my health… a big part of why I have partially “abandoned” this blog. In February I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea and ridiculously (near dead) low levels of oxygen in my blood stream… (The last two years of my life have been a crazy medical mess.) The doctor put me on a CPAP machine and oxygen at night and they have literally CHANGED.MY.LIFE In the first week of May…
