Canvas Order #1
A fellow blogger over at Sweet Happenings ordered two canvases from me. The first one is for one of her friends with an ADORABLE nursery who just had a baby. Her nursery is in pinks, teals, and our favorite- chevron! I found a great tutorial for painting chevron via pinterest on PitterAndGlink. See that blog for detailed… [Continue Reading]

Thank You! …and an instagram update
1. THANK YOU for those of you who voted for me in the Riffraff Sweepstakes. I felt like I was running for some kind of office or a prom queen candidate or something silly trying to beg people to vote for me. (totally worth it.)

Our wedding centerpieces are going to be very eclectic. For a few tables, I picked up some big glass vases from a sweet little thrift store for about .75 each. They are all different sizes/shapes. Here is what they looked like BEFORE. (kind of boring, right?) After a few light coats of silver spray paint,… [Continue Reading]

I printed these at Office Depot. … [Continue Reading]

We’re ENGAGED! Taylor blew me away by proposing on December 17th! I know, right? It was over a week ago and I’m just now publishing this… but I’ve been planning OUR WEDDING!

Funnies
My sweet grandma (Mammy) used to wrap her presents in newspaper. She is the ultimate craft-queen so this year I’m wrapping mine in the “Funnies”. The boyfriend and I have recently had a silly argument over this. I call them the “Funnies”. He has always called them “The Sunday Comics.” He thinks I’m ridiculous. I think… [Continue Reading]
