Planning a school party on a budget? This DIY project is virtually FREE! Check out this fun lollipop project, not only is it easy to make but it is easy for the kids to play! We made a monster to go with our Halloween party theme, but this project is versatile enough for any animal (creature) […]
Do you fear for your life when walking through your garage? I was there, I should have worn a helmet when attempting to walk past the bikes, the scooters (between the bikes)…the wagon, plasma car…and a skateboard or two. I didn’t and I ended up on my rump more times than I care to admit […]
There are so many methods of making a diaper cake…so as promised, here is how I make mine. It involves a lot of rubber bands because I am usually assembling these by myself. If you can acquire an extra pair of hands to hold the diapers in place you may not need as many =) […]
A friend and I tried to implement a Thrift Store Swap locally…then summer came and we kind of forgot that we were doing a swap. Eventually, one of the items (a ceramic candle topper) was murdered in a tragic garage cleaning incident. I still intend on repurposing my items…but I’m not in such a hurry […]
Decor for a laundry room? Yes, it’s a thing now…but I can’t bring myself to pay for decorations that will be rarely seen. Honestly, if it’s expensive I lose interest, no matter how pretty it is. Something handmade. Something that I enjoy making is more my style. Want to see how I made this easy […]

I’m excited to share this Thrift Store Swap reveal! It’s here, the time is finally here! 5 bloggers and I collaborated for a Thrift Store Swap. We each shopped locally and found $10 in random thrift store treasures. We swapped our finds…and now it’s time to see how our junk was repurposed! Lisa from Five […]
I received this adorable fall themed wreath from a Thrift Store Swap that I was participating in. Even though I liked it as is, I had to give it a new look. So I removed EVERYTHING, including the welcome sign. Then spray painted it blue. What a difference a fresh coat of paint makes! […]
Silhouette portraits of my children have been on my agenda for YEARS. The idea originated from a Mother’s Day card compliments of my son’s preschool. The card contained a mini silhouette of my 3 year old son and I absolutely loved it!! I made a vow to replicate it with all of my children…maybe even […]
