You might want to sit down for this, or at least hold on to something. Are you ready? Here goes: I did something crafty today and it didn’t involve yarn or a hook. Truly. I kid you not. Friday afternoon, I signed for an eagerly-awaited package at my door, brought it into the house, tore […]

So I’ve been staring at the smiling Hershey Kiss on this garage sale travel mug for at least two years. I’ve never liked it, and I often think about scribbling over it with a Sharpie. Today I decided to take action in a much more attractive way. If you have your own straight-sided, handled cup […]

Busy busy busy day today, but I think I can spare just a moment to discuss something that I know is on everyone’s mind today: Scarves. Don’t try to deny it. You’ve been preoccupied for the last several days, wondering how you will ever keep your neck warm as the weather turns more and more […]

Yesterday I cleaned up the parts of the kitchen that I need on a regular basis, namely the sink and the counter tops. Today, I tackled the table, which has served as a favorite dumping ground recently. When it was all cleared-off & shined-up, I realized it would look so much warmer if a Fall […]
