Well y’all, it’s officially FALL for me in northern Arizona. [For Kelli, much to her relief, it's still warm summer-ish weather with cool nights in central AZ.] But fall for me equals scarfs, cardi’s and flats: my fav! I saw this easy peasy tutorial on Sweet Verbena to make an single loop infinity scarf so [...]
I can’t believe it’s Halloween next week! I still need to get my 3 year old a costume… looks like I’ll be hitting up a thrift store! My older sister hosted a quick church craft night and used my vinyl to create this easy Halloween sign. These are a breeze to whip up, especially if [...]
We hosted a craft night a few weeks ago and wanted to share the final products. We had a blast with all the gals that showed up and are so happy we had a great turnout! Here are some fun Halloween Decor and Fall Decor items that we created that night. The best part about [...]
I was beyond thrilled to get an email asking to make a Halloween craft from one of my favorite craft stores, Jo-Ann‘s! I received a generous box of goodies and my challenge was to create something spooky from it! There was so much in there, I have another post in the future but had to [...]
Aaaah, it’s FINALLY cooling down here in AZ. Yay! To celebrate, we are sharing our DIY autumn wood sign (home decor tutorial + free printable) that was part of cute Amy’s new fun Fall Festival series at The Idea Room.

Craving pumpkin after today’s big Sunday family dinner? We were too so we whipped up a quick batch of mini-cupcakes and topped them with the new Cool Whip Frosting [sprinkled with pumpkin pie spice] and added a sweet pumpkin marshmallow. Mmmm! Take a peek at our pumpkin pie spice cupcakes: Each Sunday we splurge on [...]
Today we have a two-for-one post! We’re sharing easy Halloween and fall crafts that you can do for a few bucks, thanks to the help of the craft goddess herself, Martha Stewart Crafts!

Eeeek! Halloween is just over a month away and we have some spooky projects coming up, but in the meantime, we’ve had a few requests for the tutorial on our haunted birdhouses [originally featured on Shanty2Chic] that were pictured with our spooky Mr. and Mrs. Skull plaques earlier this week. Yep, we never put [...]
Here is my finished Easter table setting. I love fresh tulips, they scream spring and brighten up the room! Yellow is my fav! To bring Easter outside, I filled my aqua birdhouse with a few kissing eggs. Do you spy the wreath? That was a breeze to make… I hot glued green basket filler grass to [...]
Happy Wednesday! We’re excited to have Aimee from It’s Overflowing here today, sharing her bunny Easter eggs!We’re sure a lot of you recognize these awesome projects…
Something Kelli & I share is our ♥ for decorating for each holiday. While Kelli’s main staging space is her darling foyer, mine is the fireplace mantel. Since I swap decor here so often, I thought an interchangeable holiday frame would make it much easier on this busy momma:
We know St. Paddy’s Day hasn’t quite passed yet but we’ll be swapping our green decor for lighter, more Easter-y hues quite soon! Starting with these fun candy pomander eggs, created using yummy Easter Smarties:
I love love love St. Patrick’s Day! My hubby’s heritage is from Ireland and we named all 4 of our kids Irish names so we go all out when it comes to this lucky holiday (: So I thought this glitter shamrock banner would be perfect for the holiday! I saw Rebecca Cooper’s darling simple [...]

All you need is white chocolate, Oreos and a variety of cute pink and red Valentine themed sprinkles. [...]
