Every year I have the child care kiddos make Christmas gifts for their parents, usually something “big” and a photo ornament. One year the photo ornaments were based on blank wood cut-outs but this time I went even simpler and started with a craft foam kit. True confession: I don’t…
I feel kind of silly getting so excited about a box of samples, but some days you just need a little pick-me-up, and my Walmart Beauty Box arrived on one of those days. This may sound silly too, but these boxes are fabulous on their own! Not only are they…
The guys made quick work of taking the last of the siding off. Says the lady who doesn’t go up and down the ladder… Our bedroom is on the other side of this wall so I wonder if we’ll notice any difference in sound or temperature now the siding is…

It’s here! My Winter 2018 Beauty Box arrived, and it is FABULOUS! But, before I show you all of those goodies I figured I should post about the Fall 2017 Beauty Box first. Fair is fair, right? The colors and design of this box really appeal to me, which is…
