Buttons are the CUTEST. I seriously can’t get enough. I also think they’re a ridiculously easy item to craft with, since you can basically just glue them onto something and call it a day. So when I realized that I really don’t have any Easter decorations for my home (like, at all…Halloween and Christmas wear …
I told myself I wasn’t going to make a St. Patrick’s Day craft. Too many holidays, you know? But then I went to the craft store and as I was checking out I saw these buttons. I’m a sucker for cute packaging, and these were practically screaming, “BUY ME!” anyway, so I tossed them in …

And now we live amidst the Pokemon cards and …

I have always loved wrapping presents. One day, I will tell you about the meltdown I had when I realized I couldn’t wrap gifts as well as my mom could. I was three-years-old…yes, three…and the meltdown was so epic, I remember it today…ha. My kids love to wrap gifts for people, too (although they are …
Cue the Imperial March, y’all. I made a Darth Vader Christmas Tree and it’s easily my new favorite Christmas decoration. Ever. I’m so excited about this and so in love with this golden shrine of Darth Vader heads that I don’t even know where to start. The idea came to me like this: Conversation with …
