So the holidays have come and gone this year, and my house almost feels empty without decorations busting from the seams. I still wanted a little bit of winter flair so I decided to create a fun and festive Pinecone Winter Wreath using my favorite winter colors, silver & blue. Pin It First I gathered [...]

Last week I came across this GORGEOUS Christmas ornament garland from Creative Outlets of a Thrifty Minded Momma while surfing Pinterest. Thought this would be the perfect last minute project to spruce up my home before the holidays. So instead of using castoff ornaments like the one above, I purchased a couple of packages from the [...]

Well Christmas is fast approaching and I find myself running out of time to complete extensive new projects for the holiday season. Between shopping, birthdays (both my hubby and my daughter are this week), and holiday parties, I’m short on time… and patience! So while trying to organize my craft closet, I ran across a [...]

Tis’ the season to deck the halls and trim the tree! Since I’m putting some finishing touches on my decorations tonight, I thought I’d share my progress… with the help of my adorable helper! I just LOVE seeing the joy of Christmas through a child’s eyes! She was such a BIG helper in hanging ornaments [...]

I’m trying to decorate on a budget for the holidays and wanted to design something to spread love and cheer throughout my home. So what’s better than mistletoe, right? But not just any little mistletoe, an oversized collection of mistletoe balls! Pretty cute, huh? The project was inexpensive and easy to make, perfect for the [...]

As most of you know I have an (almost) 4 year old miracle named Ellie. She’s in preschool and LOVES math and anything to do with numbers. I thought a Christmas block calendar would encourage her counting skills and be a fun little Christmas craft that she can keep in her bedroom. Let’s begin! First [...]

As the holidays are fast approaching, I decided it was time to settle down and get organized! Since gift wrapping is my biggest nemesis, I started there. While at Target last week I picked up one of these tin buckets for $2.50. I gathered all of my supplies… rolls of wrapping paper I’ve collected from Target, [...]

Oh how I love the Dollar Store! While wandering aimlessly through the aisles the other day to kill some time, I spotted some 9ft tinsel garlands that were screaming for a cheap project. I scooped up 4 garlands (2 red and green, 2 red and gold). I found some cheap cardboard cones from Michael’s in [...]

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays as it welcomes cooler weather, bonfires, cute costumes and scrumptious foods! Here is a collection of some of my favorites finds from Pinterest in these past few weeks! Love this adorable craft project for the family! Use your footprints and some white paint to create ghosts and a [...]
