Looking for a new favorite blanket?? Well, you’re welcome, because here it is. We fight over this blanket in our house and I usually win because I made it 😉 You can use any weight yarn with the coordinating hook but I highly suggest using chunky yarn (I used Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick in Moonlight which is a super bulky 6 weight yarn) Another good choice would be Bernat Blanket…
Hello! I’m back with another update on the boys’ room makeover! If you follow me on Instgram (here!), you saw that Christian and I ventured out to pick up the lumber to build their platform beds! While John gets that project underway, I’m working on building up pieces for their big wall above their beds! I scored the cute red star I showed you in my planning post from Hobby Lobby for…
Another nursery project checked off the list! I am seriously loving all the pink and flowery goodness that I get to play around with! Anybody else never think they’d be so girly in their life until they had a daughter?? My original plan for this project idea was to make a mobile for over the crib, but then I decided I wanted a bird cage or gallery wall above the crib, so…
You ever have those times where you know exactly what you need, but can’t seem to find it?? I was getting tired of having all of my highlighters and pens that I use during my bible study loose all over the house. I’m sure John was tired of seeing them spread out on the shelves in the living room too 🙂 I really only use these highlighters and pens for my bible…
The other night, we had a mom’s craft night were we made the most adorable ornaments! I’m so glad my friend posted the idea and ordered these fillable ornaments 🙂 I had the boys’ stuff from the hospital (and by all I mean their hats and bracelets) in a box in the basement waiting to be put up somewhere or something. I had big plans for all that stuff. I’m sure you…
Be prepared to fall in love. Or is it just me whose heart skips a beat at the sight of organized craft supplies?? Because seriously, this space is making me so giddy! I think I’ve stepped it up from craft room to official Place in Progress Studio. What do you think?? If you follow me on Instagram (which you totally should!), you would have seen that I finally painted these shelves that…
Happy Friday! Quick shout out to my husband! Happy 5 year anniversary! Woot! Photo Cred: The AMAZING Morningwild Photography (formerly Lime Green Photography) So, since we put in the floors and took everything out of the craft room/office area, I’ve come to like the room being more empty. You wouldn’t believe how much I had crammed in that room! I didn’t even know until I had to move it all to the…
Don’t worry, we already gave John his Father’s Day present, so no spoiler alert needed 🙂 We are so thankful for everything John does for us. He’s such a wonderful dad and husband and I’m always trying to come up with something good for the boys to get him, but he isn’t easy to surprise! He has been subtly mentioning (for a few years) that he would like metal collar stays. The…
If you’ve been reading for a while, you know that I love making wooden signs.  It all started with my groceries sign that hangs in my kitchen and the signs on the playroom gallery wall.  I just love how much character they add to my home and I can personalize them to exactly what I’m looking for!  I’m so excited and super nervous to announce that I’m adding hand-painted wooden signs to my…
Happy Monday friends! Â Hold on to your hats because I know it’s not really Friday for Frugal Friday. Â But don’t we all need a little Friday in our Monday?? I’ve been cranking out a few projects around here, finally! Â You know what that means??? Â Christian is finally sleeping through the night! Â Y’all! Â Sleeping. Â Through the night. It took about a week of sleep training, but he caught on pretty quickly that I…
