Sewing, Crafts, and Home DIY
2012 has been a very, VERY weird year. Some things were great and some things you couldn't pay me a trillion dollars to go through again.

Some things will be really good, most things will end up mediocre. And unfortunately, some things will be sad. But one … [Read more...]

Duhn Duhn Duhn...only 6 days until Christmas! If you're like me, you probably still have most of your presents still left to wrap. And if you're like me, that present wrapping will probably remain to happen until, um...December 24th...possibly 11:59? Okay I don't wait THAT long but my hubby sure does. So we need to have some flexible, easy (and still cute) gift-wrapping options. Like printable gift tags! Remember my post about … [Read more...]

It's Amy from Amy's Craft Bucket again--hello! Many of you may find yourselves snuggling around a crackling fireplace gently nursing a warm cup of hot chocolate. Maybe your drapes are drawn open and you can see gentle white snowflakes undulating through the air until the finally join the thick blanket of snow that makes up the landscape of your winter wonderland. That would not be the case for me. Until last week, we were still … [Read more...]
Are you looking to throw a fun Christmas party? I really wanted to do one this year so I threw together a little party "mockup" plan using these fabulous Cookies & Milk printables from Hostess With the Mostess. Check it out... Cute, right? I'm really proud of myself for my Photoshop skills at working these images together. But I think we're all in agreement that the printables really make the party. They are just those extra details … [Read more...]

Who do you think is the easiest person to shop for? Your kids? Your spouse? Your Mom & Dad? How about the hardest? Typically I think most people would vote that the hardest person to shop for is the menfolk. We always want to be able to give gifts that are special and meaningful to the recipient, but sometimes giving your husband another new tie just doesn't really have that impact. So if you have just purchased your husband or … [Read more...]
