When I was 6 I was in Kindergarten. I remember all I wanted to do was learn to read because I knew there was power in reading. I wouldn’t have to wait for my mom to read me a story, I could just read it for myself. That fall I was at my grandmother’s house …
I love sitting in front of a body of water. It’s so calming, and relaxing. Listening to the gentle waves as they roll in. Feeling the breeze coming off the water. Watching kids off in the distance burying their dad in sand and making him a mermaid tail. Days at the beach are the best! …
Y’all know I love a simple craft and this one is simple and can be done WAY before Christmas because it requires things you can buy at any time! I used peppermint candies but I believe you can use any hard candy if you’re wanting a solid other color- either circle candies or maybe jolly …
OF COURSE we’re ending this week of fun crafts with tie dyeing! I mean, we’ve come together through the struggles of mosaic stepping stones, made friendship bracelets because we’re BFF’s, made macrame plant holders to bring zen into our homes and bedazzled our pens so office life can be a little more exciting.

We’re all superheroes for knitting right? Especially knitting sweaters! You can easily adapt just about any sweater pattern to become a superhero sweater! Opt in the super hero colors, add an intarsia symbol, maybe just go ahead and knit a cape! I adapted Megan Goodacre’s Hollywell cardigan (find on Ravelry!) to meet the needs of …
COVID-19 is offically here in the United States and as I live in Ohio, our governor, Mike DeWine has been putting a lot of things in place to help with our social distancing precautions. Just today it was announced the bars and restaurants were allowed to continue to have carry out and delivery service but …
When I started to fill out in High School I realized how annoying it was to go shopping because for the first time in my life I had all these curves and had no idea how to wear clothes. Luckily with time I learned how to customize my tee-shirts so they would have a feminine …
