Happy Holidays!

As a rule, I wait until December 1st to break out the Christmas decorations...but my son and I brought the box in the from the garage yesterday and I'm tempted to get started a day early! Many of the homes in our neighborhood are already decked out - love this time of year!

30 Day Photo Project Complete!

So my husband and I each completed our 30 Day Photo Projects! It was really fun, we both took some great photos and I love that every picture reminds me of what I was doing on every single individual day of the month. Here are some of my pics:

DIY Pillowcase Dress

We've decided to make our kids at least several handmade gifts this Christmas, and I'm so pleased with how the pillowcase dresses I made for my daughter turned out! They are so adorable and so easy to make! I used an actual pillowcase and bias tape for the purple Amy Butler print dress, but got a bit adventurous for the apple print dress and used cut fabric and my own handmade bias tape. I followed the Prudent Baby tutorial for both dresses; find it here!

Pinterest

Are you on Pinterest? Of course I see it all over blogs now, but I've been hesitant to check it out because, well, it seems like something I'd become slightly obsessed with! I had some free time on my hands this morning, however, so I ventured on over and searched "moroccan tile." This first image basically confirmed my "you-will-become-obsessed-with-this" suspicisions...
