I've said it before and I'll say it again: the mason jar is the LBD (little black dress) of the crafting world. Mason jars are so versatile and you can do so much with them! I'm joining up with several crafty friends to share a variety of gifts that you can give that are packaged in mason jars. We're sharing gift ideas for men, crafters, children, etc. I'm excited to share a mason jar gift that a little boy (or girl!) would enjoy. This Minion mason jar gift will make you … [Read more...]

Make Cap and Diploma Graduation Party Favors
This post is part of a campaign with Tiny Prints and Looksi Square, but all ideas and opinions are my own. Child #3 is about to "graduate" from kindergarten, and I have to say that it's still bittersweet. I'm proud and happy for her, but sad to see my "baby" grow up so quickly. I imagine that's what it must feel like for those of you with high school and college graduates: a mixture of "yeah, we did it!" with "there s/he goes". As I've mentioned before, I tend to cope with mixed … [Read more...]

DIY Couples Costume: Popeye and Olive Oyl (and Swee’ Pea, too!)
What costume could be more perfect for a couple with a new baby at Halloween? Only Popeye, Olive Oyl, and Swee' Pea! It's hard to choose because we've had so many fun costumes over the years, but THIS is probably my favorite: Popeye and Olive Oyl! Our baby girl was just 3 months old her first Halloween; our own little Swee' Pea. Her costume was a Christmas sleep sack worn backwards over a red shirt. I sewed a strip of lace around the collar, and a white sailor cap finished the … [Read more...]
