Have you heard of Project Life?? I am so excited about this! It’s a simplified way of scrapbooking, but still has major style and a touch of handmade. I had heard about Project Life from other blogs, but was reminded when I saw Heather Bailey instagram a comment about the edition that she designed. Say […]

Garden season is in full swing and I am LOVING it!! This is the first year that I have S.P.A.C.E. to really go crazy. It is also the first spring/summer in our new home so we are learning much about our land. One of the niftiest things about it though, is that we now live […]

Here in the northwoods, I’ve been dreading bug season now that I have little ones. I can’t stand the thought of having to put harsh chemicals on them everyday just so they can go outside. And my hope is that they will be outside every day! Little boys, trees, and sunshine! {aka, mama gets some […]

Once you have mastered the basic envelope pattern…or not…whatever…here is a modified envelope twist. It’s made out of knit material and is just dreamy soft and snuggly.
