Hello friends! Let's talk planners. They're perfect for keeping us organized, and for recording the daily happenings in our lives. But, what I also love about them is the chance to be creative; to make my planner an extension of me. With that in mind, today I'm sharing a recent planner project--a DIY Coin Envelope Planner Insert.

diy unicorn party cupcake wraps and toppers

I've been so inspired by all the unicorns popping up everywhere! They're pretty, and magical, and feminine, and I love how much they've inspired art, pop culture, design, and the craft industry as well. Recently, I put together some Unicorn Party Ideas and shared them on a local lifestyle TV show, Studio 5. Today I'm sharing one of my favorite ideas, Unicorn Cupcake Wraps and Toppers!

diy unicorn headband

Have you noticed that no matter the age, girls just love unicorns? Unicorns are everywhere right now, from Starbucks to the toast in your kitchen. Unicorn parties, of course, are not far behind. My 7 year old wants a unicorn party. My 14 year old wants a unicorn party. Heck, even I want a unicorn party! So, I decided to put together some ideas for creating your own unicorn party. First, I've got a Unicorn Headband DIY craft that can be used as a party favor, or as a party craft. This would even make a great Halloween or everyday dress up costume.

diy perforated notepads for teacher

Hello there friends! It's that time of year again (how??) and today I'm sharing a quick and easy gift idea for your child's new teacher this year.  Since my daughter spends so much time at school, and her teacher works so hard, I like to let her teacher know how much I appreciate everything she does at the start of the school year. It seems to set a good tone for the rest of the year, and it makes her feel appreciated. Totally worth it!

mini album with typecast, fuse, & heidi swapp

Hello there, friends! Tomorrow is (Inter)National Scrapbook Day, so I'm back again to share a sweet mini album all about my daughters. Like some of you, scrapbooking was my gateway into the world of paper crafts. It’s my first love, not only because of the creative outlet it provides, but also because I believe in documenting stories.

moana party ideas: part 1

Happy Friday friends! I'm so excited for the warmer weather because that means spending more time outdoors at barbecues, picnics, and parties. One popular warm weather party theme that I predict will be even more popular this year is the luau, polynesian party, or...a Moana party!
