Easy & Cheap… DIY Napkin Rings

Having a beautifully set table is something new and different for me. It’s definitely a luxury when you’re living in a smaller space. I took the plunge decorating my holiday table, and I’ve been {sort of} keeping it up ever since.  I say “sort of” because there are many times when the placemats and chargers…

Easy Birthday Bunting Tutorial

Pinterest inspired great things of me this year for Wade’s birthday, not the least of which was the amazing Happy Birthday Banner. It was pretty easy to make, and I am finally coming back a month after the fact to give you the full tutorial! I found great Birthday Bunting inspiration and told you I…

A Cloche Before & After

Before the world of home décor blogs, I honestly had never even heard the word cloche… let alone knew what it was.  And can I admit that I still am not sure how to say it? But after seeing so many great cloche redos all across the bloggy web, I started scoping out Goodwill in…

A Table Top Tree for this Family

It all started as a suggestion from our favorite neighbors with their own little curious wee one at perhaps setting up a table top tree this year. A smaller tree that just MAYBE would be able to survive the ever inquisitive Davis Man. It is definitely NOT a stunning, glamorous tree by any means.  But…

Have Yourself a Merry Little Mantle…

When we completely gutted and renovated our cozy little house, we decided to demo the existing fireplace and add some MUCH needed square footage to the kitchen. Therefore, sadly, we can’t hang our stockings by the chimney with care.  :(  Boo hoo, BUT… we do have this nifty little ledge that has become our make…

A Holiday Table with BLING!!

In my life as a mom of three in our Cozy little house, I do NOT usually make it a habit of decking out our table with placemats and napkins and centerpieces galore.  As a general rule, when you’re dealing with a smaller space, LESS is MORE, right?  But… I’ve been inspired by Christina’s beautiful…

Bloggy Love!

We are having a GRAND time away, and I thought this would be a great time to give a SHOUT OUT to some friends with NEW and FABULOUS blogs. You’ve met my good friend Kristi before from Cooking Unbound.  She really has a great concept… cooking without being TIED to a recipe!!  She shares lots…

Pinterest Par-tay… Countdown to Turkey Day!

Today is Pinterest Inspired Party Day!  A party created for the sole purpose of motivating all of us addicted pinners into actually MAKING something we have pinned! I HAVE actually tried several RECIPES I’ve pinned, but all the other amazing things… not so much.    :) I loved the Countdown to Thanksgiving that we did last…

My Memories Digital Scrapbooking GIVEAWAY!

I love to scrapbook.  I have SEVEN filled albums chronicling our lives for the past 11 years.  But… I have STRUGGLED to keep up with it as you can see from the fact that my books date only up to 2009! It was a miracle that I even got Wade’s book {‘08-‘09} done before Davis…

Before & After… Living Room Love

The Living Room is the heartbeat of the house, or, uh, is that the kitchen? Regardless, it is definitely an important room. When we bought our place, the Living Room was not exactly what we had in mind as a cozy place for us to rest our little derrieres.  One word that definitely came to…
