With the big reveal of our Disney treats Halloween costumes, I couldn’t let my little Dole Whip and Mickey Ice Cream Bar go trick or treating without an epic trick or treat bag! This Disneyland treats bag will be the perfect way to stay with our theme and have plenty of room for all of their Halloween treats!
These bags were so fun and easy to make! To create these bags, you need… [Read more…]
My absolute favorite food at Disneyland are Mickey waffles! I have to plan a character dining experience at the Plaza Inn each time we visit, just so I can get my hands on more of those delicious waffles. They are the greatest! I even have a Mickey waffle ornament and now a shirt with Mickey waffles on it. The obsession continues as I now have a Mickey Waffle costume I get to wear this Halloween!
I love my Mickey waffle costume so much! It is the best because I can wear whatever I want under the costume and easily be able to slip the costume on and off as I go to Halloween functions. I think the best part about this Mickey waffle costume is that it doesn’t require any sewing! To make this costume, I used… [Read more…]
Laundry is one of my least favorite household chores. It is never ending! But the thing that makes laundry more tolerable is having a beautiful space to do laundry in. I gave my laundry room a quick face lift and it made a world of difference. I LOVE my laundry room now. It is all thanks to this fun laundry room accent wall!
The best part about my accent wall is that it doesn’t take long to create at all. I wanted to create a space that was modern but also a little quirky. These simple laundry symbols were just the right thing for my space. [Read more…]
I’m only a month behind, but the May album cover makeup look is finally here! I am excited to introduce you to my Good Charlotte makeup look!
When I was choosing what albums I wanted to create makeup looks for, I absolutely knew I needed to do the first Good Charlotte album. It was the first album that I heard in the pop/punk category. It really introduced me into the world of alternative music, my favorite genre of music! [Read more…]
The 4th of July is my favorite holiday! I love enjoying the summer sun, going to the parade, watching the hot dog eating contest, and of course the fireworks! Sometimes it is hard to find just the right patriotic shirts for my family to wear. I feel like a lot of them are really cheesy, or super trashy. So, I have to rely on myself and make my own! I will show you how to make patriotic shirts, too!
We have a little artist at our house. She is constantly creating pictures, books, crafts, etc. Kids all over the world are just like her! The dilemma is that children’s art is so cute, but where do you display kids art in your home? We have had different versions of kids art displays in our homes we lived in in the past but none of them seemed to be big enough for the amount of art that this little girl keeps pumping out! That’s why I took matters a little further and made this giant kids art display station that is in her bedroom! Not only is it the perfect place for her to display all of her most treasured creations, but it is a place for her to be inspired to create even more artwork!

In fact, I bought my first Silhouette Cameo on a Black Friday deal 6 years ago! You can make custom home decor, gifts, clothing, accessories, cards, toys, and just about anything you can possibly think of with a Silhouette Cameo. I now own the Silhouette Cameo 3 and I love it!

You can get vinyl for home decor, clothing, windows, and everything between. I love making custom holiday shirts with my Silhouette Cameo and vinyl from Expressions Vinyl.

We just got back from a trip to Disneyland and it was just the best! I am pretty sure I was the most annoying Instagrammer on my personal account because I posted all of my photos so they could be added to my photo books. But I also wanted to be able to see a photo to remind us of our trip all of the time. I had looked at picture frames at the Disney store, but they were just too pricey! Thankfully with a little vinyl and my Silhouette Cameo, I could whip up something I like even better than anything I saw at the Disneyland shops!
I love the song, “Zip-a-dee-doo-dah” because I grew up watching a Disneyland sing-a-long that had that song in it. To me, no song screams Disneyland more than that one! I knew that the lyrics, “My, oh my what a wonderful day” would sum up our trip perfectly! To make this frame, I used… [Read more…]
My husband used to be an elementary school teacher. It was always interesting to see what kinds of gifts his students would bring him. A lot of times, he would end up with loads of candy. Candy is nice, but there is only so much candy one person can take before it gets a little old! When it was time to come up with a gift to give my daughter’s preschool and dance teachers, I knew I wanted to give them something practical and personal. That’s when we came up with this darling handwritten water bottle teacher gift idea!
These water bottles turned out just so sweet with this little 5 year old handwriting and artwork. I know that they will be treasures for her teachers and will be sweet reminders of my daughter each time they use them. I think the best part was just how simple they were to make! Here is what you need to make your own… [Read more…]
I am so excited to finally show you a little something I have been working on.. My office makeover! Slowly, this little townhouse we are renting is starting to feel like my very own space. I knew that I could handle renting for a while because I have killer tools to help me make any room look personalized, aka vinyl and my Silhouette! I have been dreaming about how to decorate an office one day and I finally got to do it!
