Project: 30-Minute Arm Knit Infinity Scarf

I have recently learned to…. KNIT! It’s very exciting for me, because I’ve been a self-taught crocheter for about ten years but never so much as picked up knitting needles. Even though every Thursday evening for the last 7-8 months, I’ve gone to a Knitting Group. I know. How could I wait that long to learn? Well, I had a lot of projects to crochet first!

Wordless Wednesday: Close-up

Already the middle of the week! It’s flying by. So far this week has been pretty nice outside. A little rain on the weekend, a little chilly wind yesterday, but mostly nice. Currently the birds are all singing outside my window and the sunbeams are shining in (which the kitties adore, of course)! I picked a close-up of a tulip from the Flower Show for today’s pic, in anticipation of weather to come! Aren’t the colors pretty!? Share your Wordless Wednesday photos and links in the comments! I’d love to pop in and say hi!

An Irish Blessing

An Irish Blessing by Katie Crafts; https://www.katiecrafts.com

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day, to all the Irish readers out there, including the ones who are only Irish on March 17th! I am going to a nice dinner tonight, so I have my fancy green shirt picked out, my nails are ready to go, and I will likely wear a green bow in my hair as well. Whatever it is you plan on doing to celebrate, I hope you keep this Irish blessing in the back of your mind! It’s a lovely thought not just for today, but for every day. I wish you all happiness!

St. Patrick’s Day Nail Art Design: Plaid & Shamrocks

Tomorrow is Saint Patrick’s Day (and today is my baby cat’s 10th birthday!) I recently saw a really cute design by CutePolish on YouTube (one of my favorite channels!) where she showed a design called “Lucky Green Plaid Nails.” I really liked it for the upcoming holiday, so I made a few changes and came up with my own similar design, inspired by hers!

Philly Flower Show 2015 Recap

Philly Flower Show 2015 Recap

As you know, last week the Husband and I went on our annual date to the Philadelphia Flower Show! It’s my favorite event of the year. It happened to be a crazy snowstorm that day, so it was basically empty, which meant we were able to take our time and examine pretty much every inch of it without crowds pushing us out of the way or a hundred people ruining each photo. The theme was “Celebrating The Movies” and it was wonderful. Continue reading Philly Flower Show 2015 Recap

Wordless Wednesday: Butterfly

I’m slowly getting better at this “Wordless Wednesday” thing, and trying REALLY hard to not post a ton of WORDS with it! This shot was taken last week at the Flower Show. A full recap post is coming up with tons of pics of gorgeous floral displays, flower closeups and more butterflies, but I had to share this one early. This beauty fluttered over in the “Butterfly Experience” tent and landed right on my sweater. She looks like she belongs, doesn’t she?
