When liz showed our capes last week, there was one more that we were saving to share this week---the Audrey Cape made into Anna's Cape from the Disney Movie Frozen. I am sure we are not alone in our two houses with the Frozen phenomenon....and in case you are needing an Anna Frozen-Inspired Costume this year for Halloween or even a birthday party....we've got you covered. And you can make the whole thing in less than an hour ;) My kind of dress up or costume. ... View the Post
An Everyday Alice in Wonderland Costume
"I can't go back to yesterday because I was a different person then." -Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland How often do I say I want to freeze time. Once a week? Everyday? All the time? All of the above. And I mean it. Especially with this girl. I love her exactly the way she is right now. In so many ways she reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. Her imagination...her curiosity...her temper... And just like with Alice I'm afraid one day she will wake up and her days in wonderland will be ... View the Post

Modern Maple Fall Pillow Tutorial
I have been seeing Modern Maple Quilts everywhere (just google it--there are some pretty spectacular ones) but last week I was in the mood for a quick project. So, I dug out my scrap bin, pulled out some colors and decided to make a Modern Maple Fall Pillow. And I even did the math (not my strong-suit) to make it fit right ;) This Maple Fall pillow tutorial fits snuggly in an 18 by 18 inch pillow form (the pillow cover is actually 17.5 by 17.5 but I think it gives a great fit) and they were a ...

The Art of Homemaking: Ever Think About….
On Saturday I needed to run to the store. So I say to my husband, "Dude, I need to run to the store I will be back in a few minutes." and then I walk down the hall to grab my purse and shoes. When I return to the front door there are all my kids standing there with their shoes on and my husband is trying to coax them all into the backyard. And then I ask..."What are you all doing?" And the kids say, "We are coming with you." And then I say, "You've got to be kidding me! It's Saturday go play ... View the Post
