Here's a cute and easy vase that is perfect for St. Patrick's Day or maybe if you just like a little sparkly rainbow in your life! I filled this vase with gold-foil … [Read more...]

This is such a fun and easy St. Patrick's Day Dessert (or really any day!) and even my mint-and-cake-hating husband loved them!
