We’re just under a month out, so I thought I’d get us all organized by bringing out the Easter Scavenger Hunt printables and the Easter Egg Hunt Invitations.
Each year my street gets together to hold an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids. It’s been going on for years now – I’m pretty sure if I searched my computer I’d find shots of the girls at 3 years old (they are now 9 and 11), so I think it’s safe to say […]
If you could whip out an easy, cheerful, bright and full Easter wreath for less than $20 and in about an hour wouldn’t you try? Then you’re definitely going to be all over this easy Easter wreath I made last week.
This post is being shared as part of the festivities leading up to National DIY Day on April 2nd, 2017. Join the #craftsquad and check out the other projects being shared by bloggers all over the world. (click logo […]
I was asked recently where I drew my inspiration from, and I admit whole-heartedly that I am a plagiarist.
I see an object/creation and I try to decide whether I can make my own version. Sometimes it’s from images on Pinterest, sometimes magazines and a lot of the time it’s HomeSense (HomeGoods is the US version of the same store).
I can easily spend an hour or two just wandering the aisles dreaming up places to put all the goodies on display. I […]
I’m going to start by saying this Spring vignette is NOT a sponsored post – not that it matters, I only accept sponsored posts from companies I use and believe in – but for the record, this one is not.
With Spring-like temperatures basting our Vitamin-D deficient bodies here in SouthWestern Ontario – it has everyone hoping, wishing and thinking SPRING!
I’m right there with you – bring on the sunshine and flowers!
I know this is just a tease by Mother Nature. […]
These strawberry brownie kebabs are an easy treat that you can whip out in minutes (especially if you buy two-bite brownies) to make for Valentine’s day at school.
There’s not much to it really, you will need:
Skewer […]
My Mom makes meringues.
She makes a LOT of meringues.
Up until I made this recipe, I’d assumed that she adored meringues for the volume she turned out.
Now I know that a little goes a looooooong way. (No wonder she kept offering them to us!)
This recipe – adapted from Kraft Canada uses 3/4 of a cup of egg whites and it makes roughly 140 meringue poppers.
This is the kind of treat you want to make when you have to send snacks to […]
I’ll start this by saying that just because I made my hearts out of wood, does NOT mean you have to.
In fact, if I wasn’t trying to get in some practice with my scroll saw, I would have made these heart decorations out of cereal boxes.
As it was, I definitely needed the practice.
If you were to make these […]
Good morning sunshine! (referring to you and not necessarily the weather as I typically write these posts at night).
Have you been taking down your Holiday decorations? Perhaps you’re already done? Maybe you’re planning on being proactive and leaving them up all year in preparation for next year?
Don’t laugh – stores start Christmas decorating before Hallowe’en – AND they now have “Christmas in July”, so it’s not that far a stretch.
My family – or my Mom anyways – is very superstitious, […]
We had fun last weekend. We were laughing and giggling away because of the task our advent calendar had us scheduled to complete: ugly Christmas sweaters.
When I first put the idea into the girls’ calendar, I had thought we would buy some ugly Christmas sweaters from the thrift store, but when last weekend rolled around, I decided we didn’t need to spend any more money to still have the same fun… so I brought out some old t-shirts and let […]
I was a little torn in posting this;
I LOVE my home.
I love it in all it’s messiness and chaos – as far as I’m concerned this is my ‘forever home’…
but it’s not to the calibre of the images I see of other bloggers’ homes.
At the very least, my photographic skills (while I am working on them) are not to the calibre of my favourite bloggers, so I feel self-conscious in showing this Holiday Home Tour to you.
On the other hand – […]
