DIY Leather Pulls with Cricut

posted on : June 18, 2021 posted by : Jessie 0 Comment

This post is in partnership with Cricut, a company I love. All opinions here are my own. Thank you for supporting the brands that help support this blog.

I have been working on remodeling Saylor’s bedroom for awhile now. This room might be small, but it sure is going to mighty. While working in a small room, it is so important to not waste any amount of space. Every space is equally important and needs to be super organized. So, I am labeling anything and everything I can with my Cricut Maker. Wait till you see what I have created in the empty space inside her lofted bed…AHHHhhhh…it’s so good!

Hello Spring – DIY Porch Sign

posted on : March 7, 2019 0 Comment

It is hard to tell from the weather lately, at least where I am, but Spring is just around the corner. Really, it is, I promise…the flowers and trees will be blooming and we all will be sneezing and swatting away the bugs in no time. That means it is time to get the house ready for the Spring season. The easiest place for me to start is with the porch. This year I was thinking of adding a standing sign for something a little bit different. I always see the signs in the stores and think so cute…I could make that…so why not try it out and see if I really can make it??

DIY Unicorn Valentine Card

posted on : February 8, 2019 0 Comment

Well, it is that time of year again ♥ Valentine’s Day ♥. It always creeps up on me and I am running to the store at the last minute looking for those little cards to send into the classroom and all that is left is organic healthy snacks or fun dip. So, I end up on Pinterest frantically trying to find something easy but cute to make. This year is a little bittersweet for me. It is my last classroom Valentine’s day party. My youngest will be in middle school next year and it is just not cool anymore to give cards, I guess. According to my daughter she will just have a real Valentine next year…Yikes!!!

It is that time again…my guilty pleasure TV show is back…The Bachelor. I really can’t explain why it is so awesome, it just is!! So many women and so much drama is just so entertaining. In Germany, Jessie and I had many afternoons watching The Bachelor and the Bachelorette and my personal favorite Bachelor in Paradise in her bed eating junk food, shhh, Don’t tell Greg…he also has a secret, well not so much anymore 😉 love of watching the bachelor. I am sure he will love me announcing it, I guess we will see if he reads this!!

DIY Christmas T-Shirts

posted on : December 20, 2018 1 Comment

It is no secret I love my cricut…the project ideas are endless. This year I was thinking about our Christmas card what I could do to make it original. We didn’t take any really amazing family pictures, next year we will have to work on that!

So, I decided to go with the ever so popular family pajama Christmas photo. To make it my own I thought I could make my own t-shirts. I asked my kids what they would like and my daughter of course suggested emojis or unicorns. Emojis won since I didn’t think my son would appreciate a picture of him in a unicorn shirt! The best part is I had all the shapes my cricut already and didn’t have to buy any emoji images. All I needed was the t-shirt and iron-on. The most difficult part of this t-shirt is the layering of the iron-on. It was a longer process then normal but the finished product came out so cute.
