Stick a Fork in Me, I’m… Indecisive?

This past weekend, I was flying solo. Alone. Singleton, yet again. The hubs was traveling for work, so Charlie and I had free reign of the house. I figured I should use my time wisely and A) watch some horrible chic flicks and b) do something creative. I certainly watched my fair share of awesomely [...]

Tilt me, Shift me

As I’ve stated waaay too many times on this blog, I am by no means a photographer. Or a photoshop wiz. But I like it. A lot. And so does my husband which makes us two peas in a pod. I read a lot of photography blogs and have noticed a cool technique that a [...]

A good White Elephant

This blog is slowly turning into a showcase of “look what I bought”. Sorry for that. But I had to share this little guy since I’ve had my eye on him for quite some time, and finally bit the bullet and dished out a few bones to make him mine.
Why, it’s my favorite little elephant [...]

Home Hodgepodge

Because I’m officially obsessed with all things photography, I decided to try and hone my picture taking skills in low lighting conditions. And where better to practice than my dark house?

Mama’s got a new bag

Some of you may have noticed some changes to the artful abode recently. We purchased the rights to my blog’s CSS (say what? Yeah, I’m not quite sure either) and my lovely husband has been helping me with sprucing up the place. We’ve done away with the standard gray and hunter green color scheme and [...]

I made a few minor tweets tweaks on the text sizes/colors, but overall it seems that the birdie invitation design was a winner from the get go. These were printed on simple white card stock [...]

Tweet Invites

As you very well know, my big sis has a bun in the oven. When an event like this comes around, I can’t help but get creative and get involved, whether is be designing a nursery or helping to throw a baby shower. I’m basically a wannabe Martha Stewart, but without the criminal record (zing!). [...]

Make me a Mobile

Remember that kickin’ mobile that I made for the bodacious boy boudoir? It’s time for a little tutorial on how that $12 gem came to be so you too can enjoy the soothing swishes and turns of a custom mobile…without breaking the bank. If you have a nephew/baby on the way, or just want some [...]

Crazy Chair Fixation

The good thing about having a blog is that I have to rack my brain to find interesting things to write about and share with blogland. The bad thing about having a blog is that some of my topics stem from poking fun at myself, further spreading the silly things I’m in love with that so-called [...]

On the road again…

We’re planning one of our many trips down to Florida for Easter Weekend. Both of our families are pretty important to us, so we spend a good part of our weekends making trips down to Florida to see the in laws. It’s quite the treck, but we’ve become pretty good at packing up the car [...]
