Upcycle a floppy disk storage box to use for storing greeting cards. Do you enjoy sending and receiving birthday cards? I do! While I appreciate any birthday wish, I’d much rather receive a birthday card in the mail than an email, text, or Facebook message. I like to keep an assortment of greeting…
Can you believe that it’s the start of a new year? The older I get, the quicker the years pass by! This card is from my grandmother’s collection. I can’t read the date that it was sent but based on the other cards from her collection, it would be from 1905-1910. I enjoy using her…
Did you make goals for 2013? I never make resolutions for the new year but I do like making goals. I like making goals and definitely like checking items off a list as I complete them. Let’s see how I did with my 2013 goals. Home Goals I made three home goals and only…
When was the last time that you’ve had a corn dog? For me, it was a long, long time until recently. My love of corn dogs started in elementary school. I can remember dipping my corn dog into a puddle of mustard on my tray and enjoying the combination of hot dog, the crunchy and…
I am excited for the new year and beginning new projects in our home. Painting furniture and accessories is such a wonderful way to give new life to items that you are maybe not so excited about anymore. Or maybe you found that great side table at a yard sale, and you just need…

This week I’ve shared two projects that I love. I’ve had so much fun the past couple of months crafting items for Christmas. It just may be hard…
Last week I had so much fun participating in a virtual cookie exchange with 29 other bloggers. As you can imagine, my cookie file is now full of many new recipes to try. I shared Iced Ginger Cookies for the cookie exchange. This cookie recipe was shared with me by my friend Jeannine and is…
I recently was introduced to Jolly Chic clothing and love their style. Best of all, their prices are very affordable. I’ve mentioned before that I like having cute clothing to wear to work but don’t like taking time to go shopping. Jolly Chic is going to be a great resource to easily add affordable work…
Welcome to Throwback Thursday !!! Boy, this been a busy blog week! Here’s what I’ve been up to: I shared my experience at Vintage Lynchburg Holiday Sale. I still haven’t decorated and shared How Christmas Should Look. Snowflake Wine Cork Ornaments were shared as part of a Christmas Craft Showcase. And finally, Iced Ginger Cookies were shared in…
I fully intended to get my house decorated for Christmas but it simply hasn’t yet happened this year. You see, I spent all of my weekends during November getting my booth ready for Vintage Lynchburg Holiday Sale. I’m too tired (and lazy) to decorate at night after a long day in the classroom, so as…
