{Washi Tape Notecards}

July 22, 2013 By meredith 5 Comments

I'm smack in the middle of enjoying two sweet babies, but wanted to share a quick, easy, and inexpensive craft idea with all of you this morning!  It's so easy, that it's actually something I do on a somewhat regular basis to make my grocery shopping a bit more exciting {because who says grocery shopping with an infant and a toddler in tow isn't exciting enough?!} To brighten up your next … [Read more...]

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend!  I'm so excited to share with you today one of my most favorite projects I've ever made.  I would have shared it with you this time last year (when I actually made them), but this little 'ole blog didn't exist yet. This craft is perfect for Halloween candy or objects...you pick!  I just knew that if I filled these jars with candy, they wouldn't have … [Read more...]

I'm hanging out over at Bear Rabbit Bear today with my good friend Melanie for her Kitchen Week series! I'll be sharing a huge part of my kitchen (even thought it's really not big).  I'm sure you've seen tons of different (and super cute) versions of this all over Pinterest.  I was inspired by a few myself, but wanted to keep it super simple.  I give you the, {Menu Planner Board} Head on over to … [Read more...]

{handmade baker’s twine}

August 1, 2012 By meredith 6 Comments

 I wanted to share a super simple and inexpensive twist on a favorite packaging material of mine, Baker's Twine!  I'm sure you've seen it...the stuff is all over Pinterest!  I love the simplicity of it, but I haven't been too fond of the prices that I've seen them sold at.  When I saw a fellow blogger's tutorial for making a handmade version, of course I wanted to give it a try for myself.
