Veggie Garden, Dandelions, and Drinking up Springtime Goodness

April 22, 2016 by Bethany Sy

I love the ‘idea’ of having a vegetable garden, but Nick and I don’t have a good track record for ‘maintaining’ said garden each year. We took last summer off because we had an itty bitty baby and knew that we won’t be able to commit to keeping up with weeding and such… but this year? WE’RE GOING FOR IT again. Nick and I are both pretty committed to maintaining it this year. And since I’m ... [ Read More ]

HGTV Dream Home Tour!

April 1, 2016 by Bethany Sy

It’s always humbling to be taken from my little rural acreage in middle-of-nowhere Iowa, and me magically transplanted for a few days to a beautiful hotel like this. And enjoying beautiful weather like this. And get to drive the not-yet-released 2017 GMC Acadia. SPOILED BLOGGERS right here. The vehicles were luxurious, the friendships with other bloggers were priceless, and ... [ Read More ]

Lampshade Spider April Fools Idea

March 30, 2016 by Bethany Sy

Most years on April Fools Day, the whole day passes without us even acknowledging it… let alone actually tricking or scaring each other. We just forget. We’re busy. It’s not a priority. SAD! Right? Well just yesterday I had THIS Lampshade Spider April Fool's Idea. And whipped it out in less than 10 minutes. I went to my Silhouette store and purchased this spider file from the ... [ Read More ]

Creative CONTEST …calling all participants!

March 23, 2016 by Bethany Sy

ENTRIES FOR THIS CONTEST ARE CLOSED. GOOD LUCK TO THE PARTICIPANTS! A few weeks ago, I was perusing the internet for storage ideas, and I came upon this 4-tiered unfinished trinket box (affiliate link). I loved the alternating layers and the way the tiers ‘nest’ together when it’s closed. And the fact that it’s unfinished allows for soooooo many possibilities for customizing! Stain? Paint? Mod ...

NEW BLOG NAME! Whaaaa?!

January 8, 2016 by Bethany Sy

New Year? WHY NOT IMPULSIVELY ROLL OUT A NEW BLOG DESIGN?! Just kidding… this whole rebranding and web design process has been a LONG time in the making. We’re changing our blog name from Sawdust and Embryos to Reality Daydream. So if you’re wondering if you have come to the right place… you have! Nobody hacked my website, and I’m not punking you. It’s me Beth! Same ridiculous ... [ Read More ]

Once upon a December

January 4, 2016 by Bethany Sy

Does anybody recognize the movie quote I used as the title to this post? Anybody? Beuller? JK, it’s not Ferris Beuller. I thought I should take some time to chat about all the happenings that went on for us throughout the month of December! My blog post traffic is always low around the holidays (people got better things to do!), and since we make most of our Christmas gifts… our time becomes ... [ Read More ]

12 Unique Gift Ideas by Talented Artisans

November 28, 2015 by Bethany Sy

Ahem… tap tap … IS THIS THING ON? Oh yeah! I have a blog that I should tend to! I have a really good excuse for being MIA, but that’s another story for another day. I’m guessing you’ve been spending time with family, chowing down on turkey and cranberry sauce, and watching football… so you probably didn’t even notice my absence. In which case: CARRY ON. I meant to get this post up in time for ... [ Read More ]

I have some fun pics to share from our weekend, but that’s another post for another day! Today, we have some business to attend to!

Mish Mash Random

October 22, 2015 by Bethany Sy

We’ve been fighting snot, sore throats, and ear infections ‘round these parts... so not a lot of creativity has been happening. Just livin’ life and such. Tis the season to be contagious! Last weekend, I did a live broadcast on Periscope ( our handle is @SawdustEmbryos sharing my Shading with Stain Technique, including a step-by-step demonstration! Lots of you showed up and we had a great time! ... [ Read More ]
