I blog to share tutorials, crafts, sewing projects, recipes, frugal finds or tips, and host giveaways. I have two crazy kiddos and one law student for a husband who is sometimes seen around our house. (He has 3 weeks left though so we are in countdown mode!!) I get bored and craft as my creative outlet. I think it helps keep me sane! I definitely dig home decor, sewing, crocheting, hand embroidery, spray painting, hot gluing and anything else I have to do to make that project just right.
Aside from crafting, I love Diet Dr Pepper, playing the wii with my hubby, watching some reality TV, eating chips and salsa like it's going out of style, and playing games with family and friends. Some of my favorite projects I have featured on my blog are:

I changed up this
wooden pencil holder to add a bit more flair to my computer desk. The paper was picked out by my hubby so it was a bit more manly.

I made these
Luggage Tags to add a little pop of color on my luggage and to help me id my bags quicker!

I whipped up this
Camera Strap Cover with frills to sport my camera in style, plus it has a nice padded minky fabric for my neck!

I made this
Art Smock out of a vinyl tablecloth. Very cheap and a great way to keep my kiddos clean during those crazy art projects.

I made this nice
Book Momento for my hubby's 30th birthday filled with admiring thoughts from others. I have a LOT of fun over at
