Fact: The first Friday in June is National Donut Day. How delicious!

If you aren’t in to eating the sugary treats but still enjoy the idea of them, you can check out how Paper Source is celebrating with their array of donut themed crafty items!

Project: DIY Shabby Chic Rosettes
I really like making these little fabric rosettes because they are simple, don’t require my sewing machine, and are great to use in a number of projects! (Bonus: they are this month’s fabric scrap basket project!) Today, I’m going to show you how to make the flowers themselves, and give you one idea for using them. Next week, I’ll show you another project I used them in that turned out great! Continue reading DIY Shabby Chic Rosettes

They will be collected and put in shelters with the millions of cats that are already waiting for their forever homes. That’s why adopting rather than breeding is so important (for cats and dogs alike!) In fact, both of our cats, Lucky and Mabel, are rescue cats! Continue reading National Adopt-A-Cat Month!
The dirtiest little cat, but also the sweetest. Porker Boy was soooooo happy to have the attention when I went home to visit last week!
