Easter Hope Sign
“…hope in the Lord; For with the Lord there is lovingkindness, And with Him is abundant redemption.” Psalm 130:7
Inspired by a sign from Fyne’s Designs, I had pinned onto my Easter Pinterest board a while back, the other day I set about making my own version of a H-O-P-E sign. (there are shopping links towards the end of this post, if you’re inspired to make one yourself) Read the rest of this entry
Mod Podge Peat Pot Easter Baskets
I made these fun and colorful Mod Podge Peat Pot Easter Baskets a couple years ago, when we still lived in our former house. As I’m preparing to decorate for Easter in our new 100 year old house, I thought it would be fun to show you again how I made these mini Easter baskets.
This was one of my favorite crafts I’ve ever done for Easter. To make these peat pot baskets was quite easy, (this could be a fun craft for kids too) I just found it to be so relaxing, puttering away on them, and it was very low cost as well.
So here’s what I did:(I will have shopping links for you towards the end of this post) Read the rest of this entry

But not in our new 100 year old home, our dining room here faces east, so we get lovely morning light, but not that direct full sun throughout the day. So here’s what I’m trying this year to get some grass growing in a container on my dining table: Read the rest of this entry
DIY Simple Pin Attachment
Here’s a super quick tip…
Be warned! This might get confusing because I’m going to talk about a ‘pin’ on Pinterest and about an actual pin… one-with-a-sharp-point, pin.
A while back I pinned (on Pinterest!) a way to make a simple pin attachment for all those cute felt pins and embellishments. Unfortunately the actual link for that is broken, so I don’t know how to find out who actually posted it originally. Here is my pin, I’m talking about (on Pinterest). If you know the origin of it, please let me know!
I was so excited to finally be able to actually put that clever idea from that Pinterest pin into action a few weeks ago. Read the rest of this entry
DIY Window Treatments, Step by Step
I made the window treatments in our Breakfast Room with just simple sewing techniques. The styles of window treatments I’m about to show you, are some of the easiest to DIY… it is just basically stitching a few rectangles.
Since I just found out the Waverly fabrics I used for these are 50% off through March 21, 2015, I wanted to get this out to you ASAP! (I have the links to all the fabrics and materials needed for this project listed towards the bottom of this post)
Here are some tips of my techniques and details about my style selection for these window treatments: Read the rest of this entry
