I will be the first to admit that there are a million different variations of this project floating around out there, but that’s also kind of why I love these little ghosts. We made a version of these every year with my mom when we were kids, sometimes out of cheesecloth and kitchen twine like …
DIY ideas
Last week I asked you guys to chime in by taking the holiday reader survey and your responses have been so helpful as I’m planning away for the next couple of months! (By the way, you can still take the survey for a chance to win a $50 J.Crew gift card!) Not surprisingly, a whole …
Ever a lover of all things gold leaf, I recently decided to jazz up a plain, simple white frame with a bit of a metallic touch. I’d had this pineapple photograph print (by Ez Pudewa of Petit Pippin) for going on a year and a half (or honestly it may have been closer to two …
Well, I’m entirely unsure as to how it happened in an instant, but Labor Day has come and gone and it’s officially time to gear up for football season! We’re big football fans in this house, mainly NFL, but we do enjoy a good college game, too. (Also, we have a football player of our …

Last week on Instagram I shared a little peek of today’s DIY project so I’m excited to share it with you! This is one of those DIY ideas that I love best. Simple, fun, easy to do and seriously so cute when it’s all done. Somewhere along the way I amassed a whole bunch of wooden beads, …
If you hang around these parts at all, it’s likely you have caught on to the fact that decoupage glue is one of my absolute favorite craft tools. There are typically no fewer than three or four bottles in my stash, because I find it just so easy and handy to work with for just …
I know I’m not alone in being totally into the marble craze that’s kind of sweeping the craft world at the moment. Rarely a day goes by that I don’t see a new project hit Pinterest that I just adore. The technique is so super easy that I wanted to give it a go transforming a …
With a little over a week left until Father’s Day, I couldn’t resist sharing some of the awesome homemade Father’s Day gift ideas I’ve been seeing pop up here and there. I’m off today helping out at the 5th Annual Ryan Converse Memorial Golf Tournament in honor of my late cousin (we raise lots and …
Washi tape has become entirely pervasive among the DIY crowd over the last few years and you will never ever catch me complaining about that. I’m a huge advocate of a splash of pretty color and pattern here, there and basically everywhere! That said, I’m particularly crazy about the ingenious ways that crafty people are putting …

We are going to Baby Keegan’s baptism tomorrow followed by a little family party, and then planning on a pretty laid back weekend, hopefully one full of loads of sunshine and shenanigans.
