Halloween Bunting


My friend Camille and an article I cut out of a magazine last year inspired me to decorate for Halloween a bit different this year. I usually like spooky and graveyard like, but this year it is witchy and glitter that grabbed my attention. Not only that, my daughter hates scary. So this can appeal to all. Crows, Owls, Witches, and Spiders are what I used this year. I love how it all turned out, as a matter of fact, when I was hanging them, people were staring at me, I know maybe I just looked crazy instead of them being in a state of amazement. Anyhow, have a Merry Halloween, it is officially October, let the holidays begin.

My Replica of a Favorite Dress

When I saw the fall Niege line, I immediately fell in love with this dress. My copy is very similar, but I made with a different fabric. I used the Oliver and S Birthday Party Dress for my pattern. I love the look of it in this Silk Navy Fabric. It will look adorable with patterned tights and a sweet cardigan. More pictures of Madelyn in it will be posted when she is not in her jammies.

My life at work.


My life at work can be crazy, but at the same time I am doing what I love and that is creating displays that appeal to me and hopefully others. Today since I am into creating a space that women like me would love to work in, I created the woman's den. A place where any creative woman could work and be surrounded by all things that she loves. My den would include the ultimate storage, a vintage cabinet, fun glass jars, metal containers, organizational tools, and very soft colors. I know that the photo is fuzzy,but alas, I am proud of the outcome. Just keep on creating and following my bliss.

Create! It is part of who we are.



I watched this video and cried. It is so inspiring to me and makes me feel like what I am doing here on earth is good.

What to do with an OLD window?

Many of you know that I love to go and find unique boutiques, consignment stores, and treasures. Last year my mom gave me an old window for my birthday and I have been trying to figure out what I want to do with it. Currently it is just hanging in my family room, looking odd I might say. Well a couple of weekends ago, again while shopping with my mom and sister at Home Again in Midvale, I found the idea I have been waiting for. The have painted old windows with holiday motifs. So adorable I am going to create old store windows with my own. I cannot wait to see how it turns out. When it is done I will post my masterpiece:)

Crafting for the Girl

Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year. I cannot remember where I found this idea, but I am going to recreate this for my daughter. Especially when anything kitty is involved she will find this Bliss.
