Feeling Lucky

Be the first to comment
I was feeling lucky yesterday. Hubby won some money on two different scratch off tickets and I won a raffle that I had entered back in December and completely forgot about. With all the good luck floating around here yesterday, I decided to get a head start on St. Patrick's Day cards. This is the first one I came up with. I listed it in my Etsy Shop last night, and hopefully it will find a home soon! Is anyone else crafting for St. Patty's Day? Whether it be a greeting card or any other craft, I'd love to see what everyone is coming up with for the holiday. Post your pics here! If...

I Gotta Have One

Comments (1)
I've been on a cleaning/organizing trip recently (I may not be acting on it, but I'm definitely thinking about it). I was looking online to get some inspiration for my craft space. I don't have an entire room dedicated to my crafts yet, but it's never too early to start planning! Check out some of these great work spaces I found!  I just love the bright colors in this room!     Is that a dowel holding those spools of ribbon? Why didn't I think of that?

National hot Dog Month

Be the first to comment
Being from Chicago, you know I love a good hot dog, but they don't seem to be too popular with anyone but the kids these days. Have hot dogs gotten a bad rap?For centuries together, hot dogs and sausages have suffered from their fair share of misperceptions about their content and manufacture. But today's traditional hot dogs and sausages are growing leaner. The fact is the U.S. Department of Agriculture requires by law that meats used in hot dogs and sausages must be muscle meat, just like the fresh ground meat sold in supermarkets. The vast majority of hot dogs and sausages consist of the...

Nurseries to Die For

Comments (2)
As the baby bump gets bigger I find myself thinking more and more about the nursery I'd like to have for the new little one. It's amazing how far we've come from the basic "pink" or "blue" baby decor. Here's a few of my favorite nurseries that I've run across. Stephanie McWilliams Abbey-Francis
