Project: DIY Decorative Thumb Tacks
I bought two really cute Martha Stewart (of course!) message boards at Staples to go above my new work area, and while some of the push pins come in fun colors, it wasn’t quite enough. Obviously I had to make my own! I love the way these fabric covered thumb tacks came out, and love even more that they only took 5 steps! Continue reading DIY Decorative Thumb Tacks
Project: DIY Back of Chair Cushion
One of the things I needed when I got my new work/crafting desk was a tall stool. I got one with a back, as my back is always hurting and I knew I’d need some support.

Rather than buy even more than I already have, I thought I’d take a stab at making them myself! Continue reading Small Crocheted Bowl
Project: 80s Dance Party Nail Art Design
It’s very rare that my sister, Jessica, lets me paint her nails. However, when I brought home some really fun nail polish colors and told her it was for my blog, she agreed (she still, of course, rolled her eyes so hard they almost fell out of her head.) We dubbed it 80s Dance Party! Continue reading Nail Art: 80s Dance Party
