Et Cetera
Not everything I make can be sorted out into these neat categories, so here's the rest of all the crazy that I come up with!
Mom’s 65th Birthday Party
For my mom’s 65th birthday party, we threw Mom an Elvis Presley Beach Bash, complete with surfing Elvis cardboard cutout! But since her birthday is in late September it had a bit of an autumn slant. The homemade cheesecake sandcastle wasn’t an easy task!
James L Jordan Memorial
A few years ago, I was chatting with a coworker about what she should do with all of her late mother’s old costume jewelry. I suggested she decorate a picture frame with her favorites and put a photo in the frame of her mother. She thought it was a great idea, but didn’t really know…
Winter Wreath
Just a simple little wreath for the winter weeks that don’t have a holiday assigned to them. I bought a scarf at Big Lots for $5, wrapped it around a straw wreath, and pinned it in place. Voila!
Scarves, Scarves, Scarves!
I’ve been crocheting a bunch in my down time and made these scarves. I sewed some handkerchief style and infinity scarves as well. They’re on display at the Vermont Truffle Company, ready and waiting to be sold!
Welcome Jackson!
Our friends Katie and Andrew are expecting their first child! They live too far away to for me to be able to attend a baby shower, but they’re visiting for Labor Day and I just had to make something for the new baby. His name will be Jackson and their nursery is nautically themed. I…
Cheers!
This project couldn’t have been created without our friend Kayla! She gave us the bottle opener and basket as a gift and I got to work making it a festive wall hanging. Props also need to go to my husband Josh for suggesting that I stencil the work “Cheers!” on to the top. I had…
Eat, Drink, and be Married!
I made a cute little sign for Kayla and her now husband Chris for their wedding. It’s made from recycled pallet wood, a picture frame and the type of Command strips that are like Velcro, so they could take the frame off and add a photo from their wedding. I designed the lettering, printed it…
Menu Board
In an attempt to be more organized and budget conscious, I made this little board to meal plan. I wrote all of our favorite recipes onto index cards and keep those in a box on top of the fridge. Now, when I go to make a shopping list, I pull out my cards, plan the…
Party Time Wreath
Every Memorial Day and Labor Day we throw these big potluck BBQs to 1) celebrate the beginning and end of summer and 2) Josh and my birthdays! His birthday is at the end of May and mine is at the beginning of September, so it works out perfectly. This year I wanted to make a…
