Recipe: Shamrock Shake!
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! I spent hours slaving away in the kitchen to come up with a very special treat just for you! Okay, fine. I spent about 5 minutes in the kitchen, but that’s all you’ll need to make my version of the infamous McDonald’s Shamrock Shake! Continue reading Shamrock Shake Recipe
Project: Classy Clovers Nail Art Tutorial
Saint Patrick’s Day falls on a Monday this year. That means all your parades, bar hopping and ridiculous “KISS ME, I’M IRISH!” outfits must be reserved for the weekend.

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.

Project: Small Crocheted Bowl Pattern
You may remember me mentioning that I acquired a new crafting desk from IKEA the other day. I won’t be posting photos of it til it’s 100% completed and adorable, but in the process of getting it to that point I’m finding I need more storage baskets and bowls than I’d realized. 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
