We’re taking a little break from the drywall and baking today to learn a little trick that will have you wanting to design everything! My friend Kelly is going to show you how to create clipping masks with Photoshop Elements and why bloggers should use them! Don’t turn away, though, because this is actually relevant …
Our holiday meals are pretty much always served buffet style. I mean, when you’re hosting 30-40 people, sitting at a table is usually out of the question, amiright?! So our food gets spread out on counters, sideboards and sometimes even tables (gasp!). Which also means that I never really get the chance to try my …
We’re going to establish some clear expectations right from the bat. Do not, I repeat DO NOT, click away from this post because you think you aren’t good at working with wood! I promise you that you are not any worse than I am and I did this entire project pretty much entirely by myself! …
I’ve always been very intimidated by 3D toppers on top of cakes. They look wobbly and fragile and scare the jeebers out of me! Here’s a secret, though… I always thought they were cake! I’m not trained at all in cake decorating and have never even taken a Wilton class. I just kind of look …
A couple weeks ago, I was lucky enough to come home from a long day at work to find a bee-you-tiful box of goodies waiting for me from David Tutera Bridal! I may have let out a squeal or two and then started planning my wedding. You know, my wedding that happened 12+ years …

I’m still alive and breathing and miss all of you guys SO much! The bakery has 3 weeks under its belt, and I’m starting to get the hang of this thing. We had our Grand Opening this past Saturday and the support was just overwhelming! It’s actually been overwhelming since we started but it always …
Super simple really! A couple weeks ago, I was a lucky duck enough to receive this awesome box filled with Martha Stewart’s new line of glass paints and stencils! and I was really excited, but I hemmed and I hawed, because honestly, I’m just not very good with stencils! There’s always seepage and leaks …
I may have briefly mentioned about 2 months ago that my husband had started working on a tree fort with a swing for my son. It took a couple weekends for me to start seeing what was going on… But one evening, my husband walked in and said it was all done and the kids …
An old college friend of mine asked if I would make some art display boards for her 2 kids, so I went straight to my trusty supply (that never seems to get smaller) of old cabinet doors! These are the same doors I’ve used to create a Repurposed Cabinet Door Holiday Wreath and Wall Art …
