We are halfway through March & Spring fever is starting to set in in our household! I am so ready to say goodbye to all the snow. I do enjoy winter for the most part, but holy man, does it ever draaaaaag ooooooon. With Easter right around the corner, we are slowly starting to pull out some decor and put our Easter clings on the windows. The kids are in full brainstorm mode for how they want to decorate their eggs this year. I managed to get a head start on egg decorating and want to share these easy speckled Easter eggs with you! If you haven't already d[...]

1 Hey friends! Popping in today to share a quick craft with you! A few weeks back, I tried my hand at 'Fluid Art'. If you haven't already heard of it, fluid art is the art of acrylic paint pouring.

Schedules get juggled, meals are constantly being eaten on the way to one rink or another, & I constantly wonder whether I'm in the midst of losing my mind, or whether I've already lost it! Our home is filled with rather heated debates at times over which NHL is the most superior (Canadians for Carter, every other team for Tucker). We even try to increase the excitement by placing little wage[...]
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas... the trees are up (yes trees, yay!), the lights are sparkling and everything feels so cozy. All the decorating has me wanting to create and craft. ALL.
