I couldn’t of asked for a more perfect birthday
I always thought I would have boys, but I was given 3 beautiful daughters instead. Raising daughters can be trying to say the least, they are emotional, moody, and sometimes stubborn. But luckily they are also very thoughtful, caring, fun to hang with and very sweet. For my 50th birthday, my wonderful daughters went over [...]
My new arbors
Sometimes when you build a home, and you finally get to move in, you just want to enjoy it and see all the workers gone. That is how I felt when we finished construction on an area of our yard back in 2007. I had big plans in my head on how I eventually would [...]
People are liking my Houzz pictures
I have some professional pictures of interior design work I have done on a web site called Houzz . For what ever reason, lately my design work has been included in many Houzz featured idea books, which is exciting! Anytime someone thinks my work is worthy of highlighting on a front page of their site [...]
Weekend fun & a new kitchen hutch
Over the weekend I took my nephew and two of his friends, his mom and dad (my sister and brother-n-law) to our river house for his 17th birthday. They were the best behaved teenage boys! We had such a good time on the water. It was so relaxing and fun. It has been hard to [...]
Bloggers, we have each others backs
Recently, I was introduced to a new blogger. She would like her real name to be kept anonymous, so I will call her Nancy Drew, my new BBFF and hero. About two weeks ago, Nancy Drew took the time to email me and ask if I had help when I did my pantry revamp. Uh, [...]
Gift Card Tree
Here it is Christmas Eve Day, and I decide to do a project, as if I have I don’t have anything else to do! But luckily this was pretty simple. I got the idea from BH&G website here. See, there are 11 grand kids coming over tomorrow, ranging in the ages of 2-19. It has [...]

No birdhouses needed around here
I love all those cool big bird houses people make. I learned quickly once we built our house they would probably never get used even if I bought them. Evidently, the decorative molding we have around the outside of our house makes the perfect birdhouse. Birds are constantly making nests and hatching little birdies. Notice [...]
Good Week
I thought that this week was very unproductive for me cre8tive wise. I have been in a lazy mood (must be the April showers we are having here) and it just didn’t seem like I was getting anything cre8tive done. Orders for customers, crafty stuff I have been dying to try after looking at all [...]
