Have you guys seen painted cutlery before? it’s so much fun, I love how it adds a custom punch of colour to a party. Although it’s been on my list to try for a party for quite a while, I just never got around to it. I felt bad ‘wrecking’ cutlery. Sure, I could have …
Is anyone else feeling the November pressure? Every time around this year I get so overwhelmed and my to-do list feels out of control. It doesn’t seem to matter what I’m doing or what I’ve taken on, I think it has a lot to do with dear daylight savings. Today is a really simple organization …
Today I’m excited to share with you the quickest way to make a leaf garland and floral crowns. This is the last post of DIYs from my birthday dinner party- you can check out the whole party, the Monogrammed Velvet Napkin Rings, and my Naked Cake Cheat too if you like. This one is going …
Remember back in March when I shared the ‘Before‘ of our new home? Yeah, neither do I because it was SO long ago! The kitchen has actually be done (well, this much done) for a while, but I’ve been too lazy to share it! Lazy? Yes, cleaning your kitchen day to day is much different …
I’m back from Vancouver and am so excited to tell you that our Diploma team won first place in their case competition! So now that I’m back, I’m bringing another DIY from my birthday party a couple weeks back! Today I’m talking about the Monogrammed Velvet Napkin Rings and how to make a simple bunting. …
Guys, I have a dirty secret… I have subbed grocery store cakes for homemade cakes on a handful of occasions. And no one knew because of my excellent lying makeover skills. Is that bad? If so, it gets worse. I was asked to do a wedding cake for a small wedding… like very last minute. …
If you’re like me and haven’t done much in the way of Halloween decorations, this is your chance! We’re having a party on Friday (super low-key) so I thought I should get a little bit of Halloween on our walls. I love printables and found a couple awesome ones for you on the web, then …
Halloween is THIS Friday, guys! Can you believe it? I’m not even done making my costume. I’m optimistic I will have it done for Friday though. But what do I have done? These cork coasters, of course. This is the last video DIY for a couple weeks while we work to prepare more for you …
So I’m 25 now. Woohoo! A couple weeks ago, I had my 25th birthday and invited some of my closest girlfriends over to celebrate. I thought it was a great excuse to get fancy and cook a delicious meal (before games, of course). I was picturing something something girly and luxe, but my budget was …
Halloween is coming! Despite having ignored it completely on the blog so far this year, I do know it’s creeping up on us! I thought I’d bring you a fun and super quick way to bring Halloween into your home… and your fridge. I hope you’ll find this as funny as me- I crack up …
Happy Monday! How was your weekend? Mine was super relaxing, a friend treated me to a pedicure and our family enjoyed our weekly stroll to Starbucks and let the kids play in the school fields (the best kinds of days). Today’s project is a quick one- it’s Monday after all, and today my class …
Earlier this week I tweeted that I love my Brushed Nickel Mini Pumpkins but that they are ALL that we have that’s ‘fall’ in this house. Thanksgiving here has come and gone and I have nothing else that’s seasonal in my home. I’m disappointed about it… but really this year, there just isn’t enough time …
