Kids Craft: Thanksgiving Turkey Finger Painting with Unicorn Spit

by

You know how I feel about Unicorn Spit as stain, glaze, or even paint (see this post). But even after learning of it’s magical non-toxic properties, I never considered using it as FINGER PAINT until seeing Michelle’s Facebook LIVE where she was demonstrating her ‘Aura Blast’ technique. I had a light bulb moment and decided this would be a super fun ‘turkey’ kids craft for the girls around ... [ Read More ]

Butcher Block ‘Utensil’ Trivet

by

My friend Dana comes over once a week to hang out with us. She’s my bestie!

Personalized Wooden Arrow Name Plaques

by

My friend Lindsey and I have been actual besties since 3rd grade. She lived two blocks from me when we were growing up, and we were together ALL.THE.TIME. I couldn’t find any pictures from when we were kiddos, but I found this sufficiently embarrassing photo of us getting ready for prom in the 90’s. I see that you were distracted by my mom’s floral wallpaper and fruit swag border? You might be ... [ Read More ]

Unexpected Pumpkins

by

After publicly announcing that we suck at gardening (or should I say WEEDING the garden) we proceeded to not do a very good job of keeping you updated on our efforts this summer. We love planning out our garden and mapping what goes where every spring. And we plant and water and nurture… blah blah blah. But the romance dies as fast as the weeds grow. However this year I’m proud to say the ... [ Read More ]

‘Falling Leaves’ Watercolor Kids Craft

by

When it comes to kids crafts, I struggle to come up with creative and engaging ideas for our kids to participate in. The twins (age 5) are super creative on their own and are very good at coming up with their own fun, but I do have some guilt for not coordinating messy, colorful, and crafty kids projects! BUT! Luckily, my mom is an art teacher. She and I are creative in VERY different ways… ... [ Read More ]

So you know I’m super sentimental, right? Well this year for my 34th birthday, Nick giftwrapped a very old and weathered corbel from my late Grandfather’s beautiful ornate mailbox design.

And as my birthday gift, Nick pledged to build us a mailbox stand inspired by my ... [ Read More ]
