In my last post, I showed you how to make a stamp kit. Here is a less expensive…a little bit more simplistic…but equally cute version….

Halloween party favors: Stamp kits
…Monster Eye Lollipops…
With Halloween just around the corner…I decided to get a jump on class treats for Jacks. I had a surplus of orange swirl lollies from his birthday party…and I had a box of candy eyeballs. Why not monster eye lollipops? They are SO incredibly easy to make!

A wagon, a workbench, and a towel bar all walk into a…
A few months back I was at a local flea market and bought a metal wagon. Actually…it was a bribe for Savannah to keep her occupied while I continued to shop. It ended up in the backyard…and after a few months…it had a nice “old” look to it. I knew I wanted to do something with it…but wasn’t sure what….
Chalkcloth drawer organizer…
I’ve been on a organization kick lately. I was born to purge…and when my life starts getting crazy…one of the things that centers me is organizing. My kitchen cabinets have been a mess for far too long. I’m constantly straightening them…only for them to end up like this.

I was FINALLY able to complete part two of the appliqué series. Sorry it took so long…but, I wanted to make sure I covered everything….and it made sense.
I’ve been doing machine appliqué for a few years now. I absolutely love it! I started out with an embroidery machine, but wanted the freedom of my own designs. So, I researched, learned, and practiced my way to where I’m at now.

I’ve been wanting to re-do my kid’s bathroom for quite some time. We have all wood floors throughout the house…and yeah…that didn’t work so well in a kid’s bathroom. So…the first thing to go were the wood floors. In it’s place…travertine tiles installed by my husband. I’m liking it better already! Anyways, I thought I’d bring you along for the journey. I’ve got BIG plans for this little space…can’t wait to share the progress. Here are some before pictures (after the wood was replaced):

Whenever they’re in the mood for drawing…just unroll, color/draw, tear off or roll back up. Well…I had this idea of doing a chalk cloth roll for the table. I just needed the empty paper roll to get started. They finally finished one yesterday, so it was time to put my little idea to the test….
