My daughter was invited to a “Princess Themed” Birthday Party a couple of weekends ago. I always try and do something handmade for the kids. I honestly don’t know how many people really appreciate this but I know if my child got something like this I would cherish it. My daughter has a Princess stencil … Continue reading

Bored Housewife?
So the one comment that I find absolutely hilarious in all of Fridays happenings is the bored housewife comment. Bored? Since I have become a stay at home mom I am NOT bored there is always something to do (I find there is not enough hours in the day to do it all). I have … Continue reading
Wordless Wednesday – Paper Cranes (Sort of)
I admit (and have admitted) several times I hate origami. I have never been able to make a paper crane I get frustrated around the second boat and stop. My friend Leslie Rahye decided to teach me via Skype how to make a paper crane. These are screen shots she took of the process. My … Continue reading
Monster on the Soles of Her Shoes – Adventures in TAP

Putting Green Progress–WIP Wednesday
Yes I have made more progress on a putting green. I still have to sew green felt to the green and a couple of “sand traps” but I am making progress. I also think I will NEVER want to sew felt ever again after this year – lol. The one thing that I needed to … Continue reading
Homemade “Putting” Green–Idea Stage
T’was six days before Christmas and my five year old says, “I want Santa to bring me this.” She shows me her “Santa Wish List” she made in school. I found the Putting Green on Hearthsong for $75 – REALLY $75 for that???? As one of the hard working elves my heart just sank. My … Continue reading
