Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Saturday was rainy and chilly. My mom took me out to lunch and shopping for my birthday, which is tomorrow.

Elfster Gift Exchange
Recently I was invited to be a part of an Elfster Gift Exchange with other crafty people from all over. (Elftster is a Secret Santa type of gift exchange.) For this exchange our Christmas gifts to each other had to be handmade and our budget was $10.00 or under. I made a scarf for my… Continue reading Elfster Gift Exchange
Happy Monday

Until I realized that it had been shipped. And delivered. To the wrong house! Our regular mailman retired and… Continue reading My Favorite Dollar Store
Dollar Tree Haul
Hey there! I haven't felt like writing in a while. It's been pouring rain for two weeks and has just been yucky. I love a rainy day, but two weeks of rainy days is just too much for me.

Yardsale Footstool Makeover
Last year I found this cute little footstool at a yardsale. I picked it up and put it back down a few times, but something just kept drawing me back to it. It was cute in the way it was made but yet I did not like the fabric at all. Which is why I… Continue reading Yardsale Footstool Makeover
