Thrifted Thursday—An Orange Dreamsicle
Last time I went thrifting I ran across this little beauty. It was orange, polyester, and only $6. Done, done and done.And did I mention that it is just my size?It was destiny.Of course the wind happened to be blowing the day I took the pictures.Perhaps that was destiny to.(It kept us indoors where we got a lot of housework accomplished.) Am I really going to wear this perfectly preserved piece of history? You better believe it.Leave the jacket for another outfit, add in some tights, tall ... View the Post
Suspenders Tutorial
This morning I realized that I never posted the suspenders tutorial I made for Project Run and Play on on our blog so.......since #1 suspenders are on my mind (due to the fact that I'm making some red ones for Grace this week) and #2 I've spent all my spare time talking to Elizabeth about our super exciting news (which we will be sharing VERY soon) instead of sewing I give you the suspenders tutorial.

Which is how I got the idea for her bacon shirt. Way back here,when I made her and Simon mo williams pigeon shirts, Grace was sad because hers didn't have a hot dog. That's when I decided that Grace would enjoy meat themed T-shirts. And I was right. Too bad it took me so long to make her one. ... View the Post
The Art of Homemaking: Creative License—Sometimes it’s Hard to Hand it Over
Want to guess what my 3 year old chose to be for Halloween this year? I'll give you a hint... ...she isn't a KISS groupie. (Don't be ridiculous. She doesn't even know who Gene Simmons is. MC Hammer, maybe but Gene Simmons...like I said, don't be ridiculous.) No idea? You give up? That's what I thought. That's why I made the sign. And the sign doesn't lie. That's right my beautiful little girl chose to be a shrieking eel for Halloween. (You know, "Those are the shrieking eels your ... View the Post
