I’m a huge fan of Boden Clothing… and as a result, I follow their tweets. So when I saw this tweet…
Want to know how to make the lovely Boden Birdies from our new online magazine?
Here’s @JudiNolan ‘s how to guide.,,http://ow.ly/4eMdr
… I immediately clicked over! I mean. Crafts and adorable [...]
Now that I’ve shown you the awesome photos from the party, let me show you just how you can build your own party photobooth at home! Trust me, it’s really quite simple, and if you’re a super geek you might just have all of the parts lying around your house ready to go!
Here’s what [...]
Charity can come in many different forms: money, time, word of mouth, items, etc. It can come from the manpower it takes to assemble a home for someone in need or in the generosity of gathering winter coats from your closet for someone who is cold. And it can come in the form of passing [...]

Some days you just need a little banner to brighten things up! That’s why I made this one. Mr. M is pretty darn sick, and he was quite the trooper this weekend bustling our family around from point to point. So I made him a banner that would hopefully get him [...]
