Repurpose / Reuse / Retrash
What do all of the above have in common? They are all things that have been brilliantly repurposed! Or upcycled…reused…retrashed. Call it what you will, it is an idea as old as time. Although nowadays, the movement has a fresh face thanks to Pinterest! As you know, I have a fondness for making things from…
Kid Made: Thankful Table

Make Something + Love This {three}
It’s time for my monthly (ish) round-up of the things I’m loving these days: Love This {three} 1. This post from comedian Kelly MacLean about surviving Whole Foods is hysterical {and true}. 2. We had toast for dinner, and it was brilliant. 3. Do your kids play sports? This is the best parenting advice {from the kids…
Pony Bead Napkin Rings
This is a craft we have been making versions of for years. There is nothing super original about pony beads and pipe cleaners, but I still love the way these turned out!
