FREE QUILT KIT!

Are you a quilter? Want a free quilt kit? Here's your chance!

However, there is a catch. Once you make the quilt, you must send it back. Your quilt will be sent out to children in the hospital. What a great opportunity to help, and all you have to do is donate your time and skill!

If you are interested click HERE to request your free kit!

If you are like me and can't quilt, but would like to help please spread the word on your blog!

Benson and Claire

Have you heard about Benson and Claire yet? I know many of you have, several blogs that I follow have posted about these adorable kids. I was too late to participate in the Bloom online auction, but still wanted to do something to help. I've mentioned before I have an Etsy shop, so for the rest of the year all the proceeds from my shop will be donated to Benson and Claire. Click HERE to visit my shop or HERE to make a donation to them on your own. Happy Holidays!

attempted trash to treasure

I have a LOOONNNGGG list of blogs that I visit on a regular basis, and I am so so SOOO jealous of the all the talent out there. I am NOT one of the those people, which you are about to see proof of...but I SOOO desperately want to be one of "those people."

When I see other people finished product I always think to myself "I would never to think to put those papers/ribbons/colors together...so tonight while working I went against my gut and took a risk (for me) the old me would of done all one design, and then thrown it away. I love the idea I had, I just don't love the finished product, at all. Try, try again I shall!

My loving hubby made dinner tonight (chicken and soup) the soup came in this nice little box, and the husband even said "cool box, unnecessary for soup, but cool" and I said "ooo, gimme it! I'll Mod Podge it!"...then a conversation about what Mod Podge is followed.

The "cool but unnecessary box"
My attempt at being "one of those people"


I didn't make that tag either, I bought it from THIS great etsy store!
