This past year has been a whirlwind of activity for us. We became full time RV’ers in April and spent quite a bit of the year in Maine, along the east coast, and now in Florida. While in Maine, I looked for a fun Christmas ornament that would represent our time there and never really…
I love my dogs. And I love the holidays. So naturally, I love to combine the two. I mean, my dogs are part of the family, right? While they may not understand the holiday season, or our crazy traditions that we carry on from year to year, it is fun to include them in the…
It’s that time of year to plan out all the holiday gatherings. My family is pretty large and the holidays are a great excuse to get the whole family together to celebrate and enjoy each other’s company. Because we are a crafty kind of family (I didn’t fall far from the tree), we love to…
As you probably already know, I love colorful projects. I’m not a fan of scary, so for Halloween, I tend to go with neon green, bright orange and purple rather than just black and orange. Seems more fun to me. When I ran across all the brightly colored holiday socks at Walmart, I had to…

We will soon be living full time on our RV, so I have been looking at lots of creative ideas for storage. And that totally brings to mind the dogs. They do not seem to travel light, if you know what I mean. I wanted to give them a sweet little Valentine gift that would work…

Craziness. It is that time of year. Being a crafter, I usually spend the entire months of October, November and December creating ornaments, decorations, and gifts for Christmas. I love to put a bit of myself into everything I do. Unfortunately, that leaves little time to shop for those gifts that simply cannot be made….
A group of my friends and family have been exchanging Christmas ornaments with each other every year for the past 18 years. We make an ornament for each member of the group and meet the first Saturday in December to exchange them. That means a crafting party, folks! My kind of fun. Since there is usually about 15-20…
How about a reveal from another crafty competition with Mona from Craft Klatch? This time our challenge was to create something for the holidays with newspapers. Fun!
