Sometimes the simplest projects are the most fun. I created these bowls for the My Mind’s Eye Winter CHA catalog booth, using the new On Trend collection by the fabulous Jen Nugent. They are so much fun to make and are quick. They will make an impact on your party tables, girl’s room (jewelry, bows,…

Love, love, love this project! We don’t have a baby in the house anymore. Riley loved putting the paper on the cutting mat and helping me peel the airplane shapes after they were cut with the Silhouette.

You can tell that my boys are maturing and enjoying just a few more creepy crawlies. I love, love, love – did I tell you that I love Lost & Found Halloween! Jen certainly outdid herself…

In last year’s Pottery Barn catalog, there was this amazing 4’ x 4’ grapevine spider web. Unfortunately, it was out of my price range. As I was looking at my parent’s corkscrew willow tree one day, I realized that we could create a similar spider web out of the amazingly twisted willow branches. The boys…

I love going on Good Things Utah because it challenges me to think outside the box. I’ve been trying to come up with a fun, different table centerpiece that is still simple and not too busy. Then, I saw a gorgeous lace doily table runner and thought that I could recreate a similar look and…

I have been trying to find an antique jewelry tray for in our bathroom for a while. I haven’t been able to find one of these antique beauties that I feel like I can afford. Darn budgets! The other day I realized that I could make my own – and personalize it! It was really…
