< Though last year's DIY Starburst Tree Topper from Pipe Cleaners remains a favorite, this year’s tree has a more rustic feel to it in a brown and blue color scheme, so the glitzy topper didn’t quite fit. I started thinking in textured brown tones like burlap and rope, and remembered seeing a mirror border …

Last week Michaels sent me one of their pre-lit faux Christmas trees to participate in their Dream Tree Challenge as well as a small fortune to shop for fun Christmassy finds and DIYs of my own making. And a few days ago I posted photos of me shopping at Michaels looking for the goods. And …
This genius idea {which I am in no way claiming to have originated but merely stumbled upon a youtube video of it a few months ago} is yet another way to make your scarves work for you. Light scarves, as we all know, are the perfect transitional accessory from Summer to Fall. They warm us …
Last week I posted a little DIY paper flowers inspiration and was inspired most by the first two photos… the flowers on the mirrors, and wanted to recreate something similar in Delilah’s room at my mom’s house. She has a few mirrors in her room that needed a little sprucing up and I thought this …
Let me first start by saying that this may be one of my all-time favorite DIYs EVER… and I think my best DIYs come from pure necessity and/or a real desire to have something fabulous that I can’t find elsewhere. For instance, I can NEVER find really great boot shapers… thus, some of my boots …
I had so much fun DIYing with Delilah last week {and she did as well} so I’ve been thinking about new little projects we can do together that we can both enjoy. My lucky towheaded niece has her very own room at my mom’s house and I thought we could definitely do a few fun …
Last year for Delilah’s birthday, I got these adorable pewter lace up oxford style kids shoes for her and unfortunately she wasn’t a fan and rarely chose to wear them. I didn’t take it personally though, she has a fondness for all things pink and purple at the moment and I know she’ll grow into …
I LOVE this project from Holly at In the Fun Lane for so many reasons but mostly because these large matchboxes that are so handy to have around are also so ugly to look at! And since they last forever, you have to look at the ugly box for the longest time {oh oh oh, …
On a hunt for some chunky curb chain to use for another DIY project I had in mind, I found and bought this very thin copper chain of the same shape but very tiny in size. While it’s not right for the original project I had in mind, I think it’s lovely all the same …
Just thought a fun little gathering would be all the more festive with customized dip dyed chopsticks! Especially because, it’s relatively free! But shhhh… don’t tell Ralph’s that I snatched a handful of “free with Sushi purchase” chopsticks! I was hoping the Chinese food delivery the night before would come stocked with chopsticks but they …
An easy way to update a simple wallet, clutch or small leather good… or simply to add your own personality and individuality to it. It’s easy and quick and the design is only dependent upon your imagination! What You’ll Need… * Leather or faux leather wallet {Mine is a Christopher Kon Double Zip Wallet in …
These are one of two pairs of ballet flats in my closet… the other pair are actual ballet slippers. It’s not that I don’t like them, I do, but I have the hardest time finding a pair that not only fit my feet correctly, but that stay on and that I can actually walk in. …
Years ago I used to make little lingerie/pajama sets of tanks and underwear with ruffles – you can see some of them here, along with a DIY for the ruffle boy shorts & bikinis… but I always used ribbed wife-beater style tank tops rather than spaghetti strap tanks. I’ve had this pretty vintage lace trim …
I love a great t-shirt DIY and this one is extremely simple! As shown above, you can wear it two different ways… the first is simply sliced {and reminds me of one of my favorite artists, Lucio Fontana} and the second style, by creating pseudo-bows out of each sliced section. You can choose to wear …
