    Crochet Christmas Stocking

    Crochet Christmas Stocking. I was looking everywhere for the perfect Christmas stockings for my family this year. I also wanted ones that were different colors but the same make. There were multiple options that I found and liked and did not break the bank. But the moment I went to buy them, they were sold out. So, I decided to research crochet stocking patterns. I figured instead of buying an expensive one, why not make one myself? Click here for the pattern I used. I had taught myself how to crochet a few years ago when I wanted to make a baby blanket for my firstborn son. My granny would…

    Laundry Room Refresh

    Laundry room refresh. I may be an oddball but I enjoy laundry. Washing and drying and making all those dirty clothes smell good.

A nice, fresh, beautiful room where you will want to spend time in and complete some loads of laundry. We have lived…

    DIY Dryer Ball Spray

    DIY dryer ball spray. Recently, I have been researching how to replace all the store-bought products that have a ton of toxins added to them. So, I started with my laundry room products.

We have changed the products we were using in the bath and lotions afterward gto see if any would fix the issue. Some things helped but then in a few days, he was breaking out in a rash again. The laundry products were the next thing…

    DIY Toddler Bed Rails

    DIY toddler bed rails. We have recently been on the fence about moving our youngest son out of his crib and into a toddler bed. At some point, toddlers need a little more freedom. Moving them out of their crib gives them a sense of independence. If you are on the fence like we were, check out this post on When to transitions to a toddler bed to help with what signs to look for if they are ready.

    DIY Address Signs

    Address signs. I know I have not shared any DIYs lately. Due to being quarantined to our homes, we have not ventured out to buy materials to make all of our upcoming projects. Believe me, it is driving me crazy that we can’t build anything. I wish we had stocked up on all the materials before being confined to our house. That being said, I will share with you a project we completed last year to add some curb appeal to our home. We had our home built in 2018. Even though it is a new home, there are always projects and upgrades to make the house “our home“. Of…
