While working on one of my fall wreaths, I couldn’t help but think all those (sometimes annoying) glue string strands would make for some AWESOME spiderwebs. So I picked up a few extra pumpkins at the dollar store and since the best parts of halloween happen at night I made my own DIY Glow […]

DIY Dollar Store Glampkin
I love finding seasonal decor on the cheap at the dollar store! Sometimes the design leaves a bit to be desired but at the very least it is probably the cheapest place to find supplies for my crafting obsession. I knew I wanted to do a few pumpkin DIYs this year and went […]
Easy Pumpkin Rice Krispie Treats
This week we have had highs in 80’s in Texas which means to us it feels like fall! So this mama wanted to get in the fall spirit and make some fun treats for my child’s lunchbox. Rice Krispie treats are always a winner and are easy enough to make I could get my […]
DIY Fall Leaf Decor
This probably says a lot about me but my “happy place” is Hobby Lobby. I worked there for a good chunk of time and even now my husband jokes that with as much time as I spend there I might as well work there again. The truth is I would totally be game […]
Mod Podge Drying Time Hack
I don’t know about you but as much as I LOVE to craft, one of my my BIGGEST pet peeves is waiting for Mod Podge or other adhesives to dry. It’s not (just) that I’m impatient, as a mom of two boys my crafting time is as precious as red rubies and if I have […]
Chalkboard Lettering Hack
I’ll be honest I have HORRIBLE handwriting. In school I was that girl who practiced her bubble lettering and swirly calligraphy for hours only for everyone else’s to look a million times better (you know actually legible). So years ago when my husband and I got married few of my self-imposed DIYs […]
DIY Fall Floral Wreath

Wildlife Sanctuary Wild Kratts Birthday Party
When we began planning my son’s sixth birthday party he had one request: a Wild Kratts birthday! This has been one of his favorite shows and a staple in our house over the last two years. Personally I prefer that if he is watching a screen, that he is at least learning something! After […]
“Thank You For Helping My Child Grow” DIY Teacher Gift
It’s that time of year again! The school year is wrapping up and our kiddo’s are about to be out for summer. I think we can all agree that teachers have an extremely hard job that they must REALLY love to keep coming back. My one five year old and 6 month old are […]
Beautiful and Easy Flower Cookies
I LOVE decorating cookies with royal icing. It seems like every holiday or gift season I’m pulling out my meringue powder, which is the cue for my husband to make himself scarce with the kids. I won’t lie, it does take time to learn how to make the different components just right (and I […]
