Recently, my 3-year-old wanted to spend the day making Christmas crafts. This was not a problem for me as I love crafting. So I dutifully scrolled through Pinterest, looking for kid-friendly fare. I passed pipe-cleaner candy canes and handprint snowmen—and then I saw it. A pin for making your own snow globe. The following internal […]
It’s November. And when November comes around each year, I am not thinking about Thanksgiving. No. I am already planning for Christmas. My mind is going over travel plans, gifts to buy, and how to create memories with my little ones. When I was a child, I lived in utter anticipation of Christmas. A few […]
Get your stretchy pants ready! Thanksgiving is almost here. Who doesn’t look forward to the piles of food and afternoon naps? It’s arguably the best day of the year. If you are fortunate enough to arrive at someone’s home, get fed, and be sent on your way hours later with a bag full of leftovers, […]
I love decorating my home with the seasons, but sometimes constantly buying new decor can be quite expensive—and just not possible. Decor trends change, and my own tastes change (my husband will attest to that). So, usually, I like to switch up my seasonal decor from year to year as well. One simple and cheap […]

It’s the cold and flu season, and both of these viruses and others are running rampant through schools, work places — and our homes.

When we moved into our current home three years ago and December rolled around, I knew I wanted holiday wreaths hanging on the all front windows. I also knew I didn’t want fake wreaths — nor did I want to spend $15 per wreath. I googled some ideas, browsed Pinterest, and decided I would make […]
