My sister is again responsible for today's thrifted Thursday. She called me in a panic from an estate sale asking if I wanted any Fiesta Ware.Did I want any Fiesta Ware? Seriously....ummmm......YES!!!!!I absolutely ADORE the colors of Fiesta Ware. They are amazing.And since I can't show you it all at once (I have to leave you in suspense somehow, don't I?) I am just showing you the greens today.In all honesty, I am not sure that all of it is actually Fiesta Ware. The teapot is marked Fiesta ... View the Post
An Updated Units Style Jumper
I warned you I'd be posting another Units project today... and I really like this one. A lot. Back in the day when I wore "Units" I had a particular favorite. It was a one piece, grey and white striped, sleeveless, boat neck jumper. I LOVED it and wore it all the time with either a white or hot pink waistband. So when I decided to revisit Units in my drafting class I knew I wanted to remake that outfit into a modern one for Gracie. So I started with the jumper idea and made Gracie's outfit ...

An Updated Peasant Dress
Because I was updatingThe Pillowcase Dress a couple weeks ago, I thought it also time to do a bit of an update to the Peasant Dress too. And since Liz and I have both had maxi dresses on the brain....it was a logical choice ;) Sorry no tutorial for this one.....mostly because I was using a self-drafted pattern that I made specifically for Hannie. But if you have a peasant dress pattern you love (this one, or this one are good, or here is a tutorial that is good too) I can tell you what I ... View the Post
Whatever Happened to Units?
Am I the only one who wore Units growing up?I can't remember wearing hardly anything else other than Units in 6th grade.(The skirts, the dresses, the stretchy pants....and those totally awesome knit belts!!!!)Although I have to admit that even though I wore Units almost daily they weren't the actual "Units" brand. See, I grew up here in Utah (which I believe is the knock-off capital of the world) so of course in town there was a little shop open where you could go and pick your knit, have ... View the Post

But somehow, this week, instead of our home increasing in order ... View the Post
$5 Friday– Bowtie Flip Flops
We are a flip flop family in the summer. My kids have been counting down the days until they can wear flip flops (their school dress code doesn't allow them...and even though I have heard for weeks about how everyone else is doing it....we are trying to follow the rules.)But, summer is almost here!!!! YIPEEE!!! And that means it is flip flop time! I found flip flops recently for 98 cents (now that is a deal) and so I bought three pairs of pink for Hannah. And since I have a pink girl, I am in ...
