well, first of all. i am sorry for my disappearance this week. we recently put hardwood floors in, and now, it is time for the trim. so i've been kicked out of the house, along with my already busy schedule, so i've spent the week thinking of new ideas and things to share with you all! of course it is raining today, and looks like it will be doing the same tomorrow.

ooops. just got a call, as i am writing to you, looks like i am going to be a teacher again!

sorry for the false alarm, i will finish my thoughts with you this afternoon.

loves.

sixty degrees.

i love a beautiful day that i can open the windows, and fill our house with sunshine and color. i am babysitting today, and cleaning, organizing and being a cook! i stumbled across these wonderful prints on etsy this morning, just wanted to share the happiness with you.

de-clutter, re-decorate, paint.

well, i guess it is the time of year, or the birds chirping outside.. all i know, is my re-decorating itch is in full force. i have a list of things on the agenda. paint, nursery, stitch pillow covers, plant, blah blah. the list grows daily. most of what is on my mind, takes cash. but one of my monthly reads is the real simple magazine. guess what: today they had an article on ways to organize and decorate for free! who doesnt love that? there are 10 different simple ideas, and i'll share some with you..

1. cover boxes with wrapping paper

2. repurpose bracelets for napkin rings

3. hang mix & match artwork on one wall

hope this gives you a little free inspiration, for all 10 tips, click!

good reads.

i feel like the best way to fuel your energy to get something done, is to buy a book about it. it is always refreshing to have something in your hands that teaches you something new. so, as i have been trying to craft more and more, i thought it was time to buy a couple of books to guide me along. applique your way and one yard wonders, are two go to books for an easy and achievable fabric project. i cant wait to crack the covers! i just wanted to give you a little sneak peek, they should be in my mailbox on friday. and next week, i will do my first ever tutorial and give you a step by step guide to create one of the projects from the books. do your research, is there one you would be interested in? let me know!

7:14 am, here she goes...

today is my one and only day off this week.

so, i have a long to do list.

i will be back this afternoon, to inspire you with how much i get finished, happy wednesday!

i have missed you.

well, hello its been a long time since thursday, and i have missed sharing life with you. how was your weekend? i was a teacher today, so i had to wait until after school to say hello! even though the weather is saying snow snow snow for tomorrow, i cant get spring and flowers, and bright colors out of my head. i have been fawning over fabric rosettes for months. i finally bought a book to teach me the tricks of the trade for all handmade flowers. i just wanted a share a few of my inspirations, and new ideas that i am going to try and craft by friday, wish me luck!

love any of these as much as i do? visit etsy, of course.
