The Wizarding World of Harry Potter
I've always loved books. As a child, I would spend hours in the library reading. I don't get to read as often as I wish I could anymore, but literature has made a strong impact on my life. One of my son's names, Christian, was inspired by my fascination with tales by Hans Christian Andersen. Another, who goes by the nickname Max, is a nod to my favorite childhood book, Where the Wild Things Are. I hope that I can inspire all four of my children to escape and dream in books the way I used … [Read more...]

DIY Spooky Shadow Box Decor for Halloween
I just love to craft for Halloween! Even though it's September I'm already buying Halloween items. I purchased several small items from Dollar Tree and used them to create a spooky shadow box decor in my home. Instead of pricey shadow boxes, I used $1 picture frames to make my own collage boxes. My kids are fascinated by this spooky wall art gallery. They like to look at it and talk about it. As the seasons change, I can easily swap out the paper backing and insert something … [Read more...]

Faux Quilting: Christmas Tree Wall Art
I love to decorate for the holidays and, obviously, hand made home decor is my favorite. With all the things that have to get done during the holidays, it can be hard to squeeze crafting in. One thing I love about my sponsor Foamology's products is that I can quickly and inexpensively create wall art. I used Design Foam to create a faux quilted Christmas tree to deck the walls with. Beautiful Robert Kaufman fabric gives the project a gorgeous elegant … [Read more...]

Make a Scary Halloween Plush Animal
It's the storyline of so many horror films and nightmares: a toy comes to life as an evil creature. There's something about the dark that makes innocent toys suddenly seem ominous and creepy. To play off that fear, I thought it would be fun to make Halloween decor that was creepy but not gory. It's really simple to transform an innocent plush toy from my sponsor Goodwill San Antonio into a creepy Halloween demon. Supplies: Stuffed animal (only $1 at Goodwill San … [Read more...]
