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!
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??
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!!!
This year for Valentine’s Day, I wanted to add a Modern twist to my decor. I thought it would be fun to try something a little different from the traditional red, pink and hearts but also, still stay true to the holiday’s fun, flirty style. I did a background of black and white, with pops of color using mostly pink and green. Then added lots of unique, easy and creative DIY’s that everyone can do. Also, remember it’s all about the details! If you look careful at all the pictures the final touches really finish off each space! 😉
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!!
Well, it is a wrap on Christmas 2018. Hope you all had a HAPPY, HEALTHY, and FUN Christmas!! It seems to fly by faster and faster each year. All that planning, decorating, and cooking is now a distant memory and it is time to think of what the New Year will bring. It is always exciting to look into the next year and think about your hopes and wishes for the New Year…almost like a new beginning!
