Better late than never, eh? Just about all my crafting time in the past month went towards Ollie’s birth sampler. Before: Now: As you can see, the cross stitching is mostly complete. (There is still a bit missing on the upper red flower on the right side). Then, the backstitching…

Last year I got a bunch of Valentine crafty stuff, but never put it together. So this year, I thought I’d get on it. I suppose you could say my “nesting” was expressed in crafting productivity! First up, I made this “kissing ball”- using a 3″ diameter floral foam sphere,…

My sweet baby, Oliver, was born February 10, 2014, 1 week early, weighing 6 lb 12 oz and 20.25″ long. I studied hypnobirthing hoping for a natural childbirth without drugs, and we achieved that. We spent a few days in the hospital and arrived home on February 12. Since then,…

Continue reading →: January Snowflake Wreath + Baby Shower
My house felt so bare after taking down all the Christmas lights and decorations. I felt inspired to make a snowflake wreath for the front door. I needed something pretty and sparkly to brighten up the cold days and long nights during a “polar vortex” with record low temps; plus…
