{Easy} Fleece Christmas Pillow Covers




It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at our house...

I have a super easy project I wanted to share... its perfect for this time of year.

I made 3 fleece pillow covers that are so soft and cozy in about 15 minutes out of 1 blanket.

It doesn't get much better than that!

The blanket was one of those 50x60 inch throws that you can find just about anywhere... I think I've seen them at Walmart for as low as $3. There are so many different patterns and colors to choose from! So not only is this project easy, its cheap as well. 

These pillow covers were so easy to make and they're so soft that I might just have to make more.

I've listed all the measurements and instructions of how I made these pillow covers, so help yourself if you want to give it a try.

So very Thankful...



I found the cutest sign for Thanksgiving at Hobby Lobby and I just had to share.                                                                                                                                                         After all these years of decorating, my tastes are constantly changing.                                                                                                                                                                     Lately, I'm learning that less is more... so choosing a couple pieces that really mean something to me keep our house looking clean, open and less cluttered.                                                                                                                         I fell in love with this sign as soon as I saw it, while on a {Girls Weekend} with my Mom and Sisters. 
I just love how its rustic, yet elegant, and simple. 
I'm so {Thankful} for this season and the opportunity to think of the many blessings I've been given. 
I have so much to be thankful for!!!!!
{don't forget to stop at Hobby Lobby and fall in love with all the wonderful decorations}

2020 {Lined} Monthly Calendars

Its been a crazy year and slow moving everything over from my old website. 

But I'm super excited that you are still following along 
on this crazy ride. 

I'm so glad that so many of you like the calendars and find them useful!

I did make a free 2020 calendar 
and the other 2020 calendars are available at my Etsy shop

 I wanted to make them cheap because I know how much everything else in life costs... 
too much!

FREE 2020 {Lined} Monthly Calendars- Printable Download


Calendars are a great way to stay organized and on task. 

One of my favorite things to use my calendar for is journaling. So I made this lined calendar to keep track of all our family adventures... and there are plenty of them (my calendar is usually full by the end of the month).

The lines are great to keep activities separate or just to keep everything neat. There is also lots of extra space for notes or lists on the lined spaces at the bottom and top. 

Life moves so quickly its easy to forget things. These calendars help me remember all those important days and events with plenty of time to plan ahead. Then I can look back and enjoy all the fun things we did.

DIY Easter Sign {makeover}


Easter is one of my favorite holidays!
{actually I really like them all!}

I love to decorate each month and I like the decorations to be simple {and meaningful}. Its ideal to find a sign that looks and says just what you want and doesn't cost very much.... but that is rarely ever the case for me so I improvise.

Every year I come up with lists of new things I want to buy/make. This year I wanted a couple small signs to accompany my wooden bunny.

These signs were so simple to make, didn't cost much,
and turned out so cute!

Hoppy Easter {wooden bunny}


I love spring! I love the green grass! And I love the warm weather!

I’ve been working on these cute wooden bunnies... last year I wanted to make one but never got the chance. This year I got it started but not finished, yet anyways.
