Now there aren't many things I have under control around here right now......the laundry......my closet......the storage room......getting fully dressed before going out in public... But there is one thing that I finally have down to a science and that is meal planning.(And if that ever breaks down heaven help my family.) Here's what I do: On the side of my fridge I have hanging a list (just a simple list on lined paper...it hasn't been scrapbooked and isn't a printable...) that lists the ... View the Post
Tab-Top Curtain Tutorial
(Do you like how I had yet to trim the threads in this picture?)I got this itch to make new curtains for my sewing space a while ago. But, the fabric I wanted was $20 a yard, which I wasn't willing to spend. Fast forward to last week, went I saw at Joann's that it was 50 % off and I decided it was time to get going and make the curtains. I bought 6 yards of fabric which was perfect for 2 curtains (my curtain rods are pretty high) and they touch the floor perfectly.I had previously decided ... View the Post

I am currently three outfits down and three to go, with bits and pieces in between like blind-stitch hemming (I don't know why but I dislike blind-stitch hemming, so I always leave it until the end, even with the nifty foot-- I am weird.) But I am totally stuck at finding a girls' navy blue skinny belt ... View the Post
The Bow-A-Constrictor Tutorial
I've been working on cleaning up and organizing the house...and trying to solve some storage issues. One of those issues is Grace...and all 8 million of her hair bows. We've been keeping them in a bin but she likes to look through them to pick out which one she wants and they usually end up in a pile on the floor. So in order to solve the problem I made this: The Bow-A-Constrictor: It was easy to make, it solves the problem, and I think it will be cute on the wall. In fact, I plan to make ... View the Post
