New Etsy Finds…

It is probably no surprise that I scour Etsy for ideas and gifts.  The Pounce feature is one of my favorites.  I can sit and pounce for hours longer than I would care to admit. So, I thought that it would be fun to do another overview of all the awesome and inspirational stuff I [...]

Crafty to-do list…

The good news is that I was actually able to cross something off my crafty to-do list.  I made the other pillow for the man room.  It looks just like this one does, so I won’t post pictures of it. But I was a little more confident with this one, which is good because I [...]
