Month: October 2012

Do you ever see pictures and wonder how people get kids to sit so still and perfect to capture it? I do! Just about every “pretty” photo of children that I see I wonder how in the world they got it. Seriously, it is so incredibly hard to take a half-way decent picture of one child, never mind two!

I am excited to introduce the first new item in this year’s Thanksgiving line. Last fall we created our give thanks pillows which we have continued to sell this year and introduced a new color, but we also thought it would be fun to add some more Thanksgiving related items.

 A couple of weeks ago I showed you all this bench I made for our dining room. Well, I finally got all of my photos uploaded and ready so I could show you how I made it. It was completely inspired by the farmhouse table I made a couple of weeks earlier using Miss Mustard Seed’s tutorial.

Here are the last two projects from New Hampshire.  The original plan was to place the table that we showed you last week on this wall here in the kitchen. It looked great here but poked out just a bit further than was ideal so while I was home we hunted through some of their old pieces in the basement to see if there was anything that might work in this space.

I thought I would show you another little vignette from my parent’s
house. To be honest I can’t take much credit for this one. My mom had it
pretty much all put together when I got there and I just played around
with it a teeny tiny bit by adding the ladder and the artwork of my grandfather.
