Bow Tie How To

These look so quick and simple to make. I know that's not entirely too true but it doesn't look too hard to try!

And I think they would look so cute in Katie's hair- especially with all the new strawberry fabric MJ showed me.

Argyle Yarn Christmas Wreath

Oh goodness, I love this wreath. So classic and fun at the same time. I wonder how much yarn it would take, though?!

Towel Rack from a Quilt Rack

I love this idea to use a quilt rack for a towel rack. They are a dime a dozen at GoodWill. Easy, cheap, high impact!

French Chair Redo- Reupholstery

This looks just like my French chair! And it doesn't look TOO tricky to redo it. Someday!

Toy Organizaition

I snapped this yucky cell phone picture in the basement of Corn Wagon Quilt Co. in Utah last week. I looked at it (and after I could stop staring at the beautiful red) and thought, "There has to be a toy storage correlation here." I'm still hunting for the perfect way to organize the toys and keep them looking great, minimized, and functional for the kids. Suggestions would be appreciated!

Sewn Mail Organizer

I've been looking for a new way to organize my bills. Right now, stacked up on my desk in piles, then occasionally filed away compactly isn't really cutting it (particularly since my desk is in the master bedroom!) I'm so impressed she MADE this- it's beautiful!

Red Velvet Cupcakes in a Jar

What is it about Red Velvet Cake that just gets people excited? I mean, I'm one of those people since we had it as our wedding cake. Anyways, I'm going to make these Red Velvet Cupcakes in a Jar next time I have a party. I think people would flip out, really.

Update- I made them! So fun!

Another Chair

My new chair from GoodWill looks a lot like the one on the right. Really. I need to paint it and think this house is great inspiration.

Cupcake Flower Pots

This is so clever and cute. I love that I could totally do this, too. Another item to add to my list!

Silhouette Wall Idea

I love everything about this wall. The colors, the silhouettes, the printed wall behind the solid mattes, everything. So pretty.

Thonet Chair Pillows

My mom loves her Thonet chairs but they are pricey and hard to come by. These Chair Pillows are a lot of fun and so creative.

from Belle Maison

Since I love Paris and my husband's name is Ben, I think I'm going to have to make some prints like these for our house somewhere. Simple and cute.

Kids Storage Chairs

Kids have so much stuff- I love the idea to keep things tucked away like this. And with Knock Off Wood's simple, foolproof plans, I hope to have some of these eventually!

Grograin Ribbon Wreath

I've been eyeing this wreath for a while and think a nice springy color might make an appearance on my front door soon.

Girl's Shirt from a Men's Top

I love this men's shirt turned into a sweet, pleated girls top. So fun.

Stamped Spoons as Herb Markers

I'm happy to find another use for my metal jewelry stamps, especially since I love herbs and can actually grow them.

from Monkeys Always Look's Etsy Shop

Update: this will NOT work on stainless spoons (I should have known but certainly didn't). I ruined my stamps trying! I'll have to find a softer metal!

Hooked Shelf

I don't really need a coat (much less a rack, remember that scene in Wayne's World?) in sunny Arizona but I want to make one of these for my bathroom. It's so pretty. That remodeling guy is so tricky.

Bows for Girls

Thank goodness I have a little girl because I used to get seriously upset by all the ridiculously cute dresses at the mall. I'm sure these hair clippies would have the same effect. I can't decide which I like the most, they're all so fun and creative! Check out Funky Polkdot Giraffe on etsy.

Kids Table and Chairs

This kids table has me dreaming! I've been thinking about it since I first saw it and think I'm finally going to be able to have my own. I found a pretty similar rectangular table and I'm going for it as soon as I get the cast off my sanding hand. I love the white but think I might do red. Either should be so fun for my little guy!

Scarlett's Crib

I need to preface this post with saying that I would totally name a daughter Scarlett if I could convince my husband. As it stands I call my daughter Katie Scarlett when he isn't listening. So, I fell in love with this crib instantly! The whole room is amazing and I love the name hanging on the wall. I'm hoping that names as decor don't go out of style too soon because I think it's so fun and that everyone is secretly a little vain about seeing their name. I know I am.
