I’ve talked before about projects that are all over Pinterest and other social channels. They are the type of thing that I tuck away into my mental file and hope to make for myself one day. They seem almost silly to share as a tutorial, since anyone can Google their way to the same result.Read more

In May my husband and I spent a week in Jamaica to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary. Of course the sunshine was amazing, crystal blue ocean water was beyond compare, and the temperature was just what this post-winter Michigander needed. All of those things were pretty expected.

From the wardrobe, to the outdoor activities, down to summer-themed food, shining sun always seems to be a mood-lifter for me. On really hot days,Read more
Scrapbooking seems to be one of those “gateway” crafts. You know, the thing you are exposed to that makes you get interested in other crafts? Are you a scrapbooker? I admit, I want to be but I’m not really. I generally take the time I would spend making scrapbook layouts and use it making otherRead more
I must say, when I take a look at my nieces, I see brilliant children who are adapting so well to the fast-pace changes that take place in today’s technology.
