So…I have a slight love affair with Halloween. I have so many fun memories of Halloween.

I, again, was Pin-spired. By this: It’s a slipcover for your slipcover. Haha! Actually, just for the cushion on a singular cushioned piece. I liked the idea for adding in some sort of color or accent that can easily be switched out and is much faster to make than a slipcover. As Halloween draws nearer,…
Sisal Rope Basket Liner

Changes to my Living Room
Ironically after I wrote the post entitled “I have a disease” I actually got sick. Like for real sick, puking and whatnot. It was horrendous. On the plus side, I lost like four pounds in one night! And now I’m pretty much better…this bug left as quickly as it came. Although I’m left with a…
I have a disease…
I’m having what is known in the medical community as “CRAFT BLOCK.” It’s a severe disease that occurs after a major crafting holiday (typically in January) but only lasts usually a couple of weeks.
