If you love crafting and creating projects, let me give you 5 reasons a Cricut Explore Air 2 is a MUST own piece of equipment. I previously owned a Cricut mini and enjoyed many years of crafting fun with that little machine but it didn’t prepare me for the amazing projects I could create with the Cricut Explore Air 2. Heck, I even designed my entire office around my pretty new equipment. This handy machine really makes crafting so much more fun.  I can whip up everything from matching family shirts to this cute farmhouse style container to hide my cat litter boxes.  [Read more…] about 5 Reasons I love my Cricut Explore Air 2 + DIY Farmhouse Style Cat Litter Storage Container

One of our favorite shows is “Trolls: The Beat Goes On” on Netflix. My  little one loves Poppy so I was inspired to create her this DIY Trolls Poppy Purse she can wear to remind her of her favorite character.

We’ve definitely got some Trolls fever in this house. Right now we’re all about the DreamWorksTV animated series “Trolls: The Beat Goes On” on Netflix. The kids loved the movie so naturally the animated series is a favorite. My daughter just loves Poppy! Who could blame her? With that wild pink hair, what’s not to love?! I bought her a Trolls shirt the other day and she was so excited. Being the girly girl that she is, she asked for a purse to match. Have you tried looking for a Trolls Poppy Purse? I have and there’s not much out there, so I did the next best thing! I decided to make her one and this DIY Trolls Poppy Purse was created.

DIY Farmhouse Inspired Coffee Jar

Fall is my favorite time of year. It also seems to be my busiest time of year. Between the kids going back to school, busy season for my work and so many things I want to and see, it’s such a busy time. Every year before the kids start school and my schedule kicks into overdrive, I sit down and use this time – the calm before the storm almost – as a time to reflect on what’s worked in our routines and schedules and make any necessary changes. One thing that works best for me is setting time aside for me each morning. Before the day starts, before the kids wake up and before I need to prepare for what the day throws at me. Just a few quiet moments with me and my cup of coffee. I even revamped my kitchen counters to include a little at home coffee bar.  A spot for my coffee maker, my favorite mugs and my newest addition, this DIY  Farmhouse Inspired Coffee Jar.  [Read more…] about DIY Farmhouse Inspired Coffee Jar
