I always dread taking down the Christmas decorations...not just because it's a whole lot less fun than putting them up, but also because the house always feels a bit uninspired when the festive decor comes down. I blame it on winter. It's cold and dreary outside, and it affects the mood inside as well. I never thought I'd decorate for holidays like Valentine's Day, but in the past couple of years I've discovered that this lovey-dovey holiday is actually perfect excuse to start bringing ...

Five Ways to Get Your Home Organized With Cricut Joy
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cricut. All opinions are 100% mine. Cricut has long been established as the ultimate crafting tool! And while I get my craft on from time to time, I've always used my Cricut cutting machine primarily for organizing. While I love my Cricut Explore Air (and am coveting a Cricut Maker for it's ability to cut even more materials), the truth is that both machines are much more powerful than what I need for the majority of my projects. I love ... View the Post
How to Create a Custom Door Label with Cricut
A year after completing the makeover of our master bathroom, the barn door on our closet remains one of my favorite details of the space! Based on your comments, it seems to be one of your favorite features as well. Over time, a lot of you have asked me how we added the "Dressing Room" label to the barn door, so today I wanted to share the easy DIY tutorial. I created this custom door label using my Cricut electronic cutter, which is one of the most versatile and fun tools I own for decor, ... View the Post
Reasons I Love You Valentine’s Day Countdown Banner
This post is sponsored by Target and American Crafts, but all opinions are my own. Read my full disclosure. My boys LOVED the Countdown to Santa calendar that I drew on our chalkboard wall for Christmas, so I knew I wanted to create a fun Valentine's Day "advent" calendar for February. When Target offered to send me a box of Valentine's themed American Crafts craft supplies from their One Spot, I jumped at the chance. As soon as the box arrived on my doorstep I ripped it open and was ... View the Post

What You Get for Valentine’s Day When You’re Married to a Blogger…
I hope everyone had a fantastic Valentine's Day, or simply an enjoyable Saturday if Valentine's is not your jam! Scott and I were originally going to stay home with our boys, but after finding a last minute babysitter, we left the house with no real plans other than to spend a few kid-free hours together. It ended up being a crazy evening that finally culminated with us having dinner and exchanging gifts around 11 pm. When the babysitter arrived, we left the house with no clear destination. ...

Non-Candy Valentines: Free Printable Valentine’s Day Cards
My boys' school has a wellness policy that requires that no candy be handed out at class parties, but since the kids enjoy giving and receiving little gifts, I designed these cute non-candy Valentine's last year. My son loved handing out these wiggle eye rings to his kindergarten class, and they were a huge hit with his friends. This year, I'm sharing these free printable Valentine cards with you! You can download them at the end of the post. I bought several bags of multi-colored wiggle ... View the Post
Valentine’s Gift Bags and a Bag Topper Printable
Valentine's Day is right around the corner, and I've been busy preparing gift bags for Beckett to give each of the kids in his preschool class. I started (as I often do) by searching around Pinterest for ideas, and as always I found lots of inspiration, but nothing was quite what I was looking for. I had a few requirements: no candy; something fun and age appropriate for 2 to 2.5 year olds; low budget; and, finally, something that Beckett could help to create. A few weeks ago while shopping ...

The Language of Flowers
My book club is one of my guilty pleasures! I love having an excuse to read a good book every month {and I love that my book club girls really read the books}! This month, we read Vanessa Diffenbaugh's The Language of Flowers, and beside being a moving story about a woman with a gift for flowers who is struggling to overcome her past, the book also inspired me to learn more about the meanings behind the flowers that we give and receive. With Valentine's Day just one week ... View the Post
Valentine’s Day Decor: DIY Kate Spade Inspired Xs and Os

Ombre Cupcakes – Perfect for Valentine’s Day
While my favorite colors are shades of blues and greens, my younger sister is a fan of anything red, pink or purple! To help her celebrate her birthday last week, I made her cupcakes with pink icing - three shades of pink icing to be exact. The ombre cupcakes turned out so pretty that I had to share them with you because they would also be perfect for Valentine's Day! I started by making two dozen strawberry flavored cupcakes, and I baked them in purple and pink polka dot cupcake papers. I've ... View the Post
