Last year, I showed you some photos of my boys' "Caps for Sale" Halloween costumes a few days after the holiday, but since it was post-Halloween and no longer timely, I didn't share the tutorial at that time. But I have received quite a few questions about the DIY elements of the costumes, so I thought that this year I would provide the quick how-to well in advance of the holiday. And today, I've joined with some other fabulous bloggers that have created 17 more fantastic DIY costumes for kids ... View the Post

DIY Sheet Music Feature Wall + Free Printable Song Lyrics Posters
Remember that rock & roll themed playroom that I created for my boys in the former storage space under our basement stairs?! I hope you do, because it's one of my favorite spaces!
