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 =) […]
DIY: Scrabble Name Decor
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.

Mommy Madness Tip #3- Buy Thrift Store Games for Parts
I am on a huge board game kick right now. It’s away from the television and it fosters family time.

Pink and Pearl Babyshower
I was ecstatic when given the opportunity to make custom decorations for a baby shower. A few projects have been in mind but never a reason to make them. I despise being wasteful with my time and money, so I refused to make something “just because”. Artistic freedom and a dress for inspiration, were given […]

Nerf Party Tips without Going Overboard
My son’s 6th Birthday party was a success…and we did it without overdoing the Nerf theme! Don’t get me wrong. It looks fabulous to serve cheese puffs as Nerf darts…but it’s not for me. I personally think it’s going a little overboard to relabel bottled water and serve unhealthy snacks just because of it’s color/shape. […]
