What comes to mind when you think of Thanksgiving? Maybe spending time with family, or all of the things you are thankful for? These are both wonderful things and should absolutely be recognized. But let's be honest here - we also think about food. As a vegetarian, though, turkey is not the first thing on my mind. You want to know what is? PIE. All kinds - apple pie, cherry pie, chocolate pie, dixie pie, pecan pie, and on and on and on. My grandma was quite a baker while my mom was growing up, and in turn, my mom became quite the baker herself. She is practically world-famous for her pies. Ok, so maybe not world famous, but definitely famous amongst our circle of family/friends/coworkers/etc. So, in ... View Post
Thanksgiving Picture Frame Craft and Free Printable
I cannot believe we're nearly to the end of October! This fall is just flying by in a complete blur, and the month of Thanksgiving is already quickly approaching. Last year, around this time, I made an adorable, interactive Thanksgiving picture frame with one of the mom groups that I am a part of. I absolutely loved the concept, and it was incredibly simple to make. So, I decided to make another one that better matched my decor, and share it with all of you! This is a great way to get you, and your kids, into the spirit of Thanksgiving. The idea is to write something that you are thankful for on the frame every day, much like a gratitude journal. Studies have shown that gratitude journals are incredibly beneficial both mentally and ... View Post
Easy DIY Halloween Glitter Pumpkin
A couple of weeks ago, I mentioned that I had nearly ruined a pumpkin in an attempt to create this Crayon Art Pumpkin. Well, I couldn't just let that pumpkin go to waste. I wanted to find a way to make it usable, but I knew I would somehow need to cover the entire top of the pumpkin. So, I decided to make a fun Halloween glitter pumpkin. I even went one step further and added some stripes to it. It was super easy to put together, and it is now totally worthy of display. (This post contains affiliate links.

Halloween Dirt Pudding Cups
I hadn't had, or even thought about, dirt pudding in years. More years than I am willing to admit, really. As a kid, though, I loved it. I only remember getting it here and there at school functions or parties, but I just thought it was so fun. And absolutely delicious, of course. With Halloween approaching, I wanted to find a fun, yet easy, Halloween treat to make. I really have no idea why dirt pudding popped into my head after all these years, but I thought it could potentially work well. And did it ever. These Halloween dirt pudding cups are totally adorable, and so easy to make. (This post contains affiliate links. To see my full disclosure, go here.)

Fun DIY Halloween Wreath
I love decorating for Halloween - even more so than Christmas. Now, don't get me wrong, I absolutely adore Christmas and the whole Christmas season. But there is just something so fun about all of the spooky, witchy, ghostly decorations. I do have to be careful in my house, though, as my 2 year old is easily spooked. Fortunately, this super fun DIY halloween wreath that I put together has not been a problem. This wreath was such a breeze to put together. It requires minimal supplies, only about 15 minutes of your time, and it turned out so cute. I love a craft that gives you a lot of bang for your buck, and this one definitely fits the bill.

Halloween Crayon Art Pumpkin
Halloween is just around the corner! Can you believe it?! I love decorating for Halloween, and I have been busy getting my craft on in preparation for the spooky season. The first craft I wanted to share with you was a lot of fun to make, but to be perfectly honest, it was a bit of a pain in the rear. I first got the idea for a Halloween crayon art pumpkin when I saw this post on Pinterest. I thought it was totally adorable, and I knew I wanted to make one for myself. And while the end product is definitely unique and fun, the journey to get there was a bit bumpy. In an effort to keep this from becoming a novel, I will keep the faux-pas brief. First off, I didn't have the tacky glue that was recommended in the original post. So, ... View Post
