Best Friends Day.. a free candle cozy pattern
There is nothing better than a best friend. God put them on this earth to be there for us no matter what is going on. They are the most supportive people in your corner. They know when we’re upset and are always willing to hide a body for you. I mean, am I right? Or am I right? Not that we’re all out hiding bodies or anything…. LOL. They also know how to have a good laugh with you. And let’s be honest, they’re also the first person to laugh AT you or tell you that you’re wrong. They are so important that Best Friends’ have been given an official…

Galentine’s Day… a holiday for the ladies.
If you are like me, you cherish the friendships you have with your girl friends. I don’t know where I would be without mine. They are my sanity. So, what exactly is Galentine’s Day? Galentine’s Day is to Valentine’s Day like Friendsgiving is to Thanksgiving. It’s celebrated on February 13th. It’s a great way to let your friends know how much you appreciate them. And let’s be honest, sometimes your gestures are all they get. Not everyone has a significant other or a SO who celebrates Valentine’s Day. It’s just something extra to let the girls know how much you love them even though we show them all year round.…

North Mountain Spa Set
I’ve got some exciting news. You can now find my washcloths and soap savers at North Mountain Apothecary! I met the owner of North Mountain Apothecary, Keisha Burns, about four years ago at a local craft show where I was introduced to the Cherry Almond Body Whip. I have been hooked on this scent ever since and I can’t seem to make myself buy anything else. I love how soft her products make my hands feel. A good hand cream is vital when you are a crocheter. My fingers crack in the winter months due to the yarn and cold temperatures. I wanted to give you guys a little insight…

Stacked Pumpkins…. new pattern
IT’S SPOOKY SEASON! I can not believe it’s already my birthday. That means school is starting soon (next week for us) and shortly after that Fall comes. And you know that Fall brings all sorts of good things. Pumpkin lattes, corn mazes, hay bales, sweaters, and knee high boots. I can’t wait. It’s been so hot here lately that I am gladly going to welcome the cold weather. I have a new pattern ready for you guys. It’s stacked pumpkins. What better way to get ready for Fall/Halloween? These pumpkins can be made separately but I have designed them to be stacked.

Christmas in July.. Week 4
I am so sad that today is the last Friday in July. It’s also the last week in my Christmas in July campaign. We have been so busy with buying our house and my daughter turning 18 that I haven’t even had time to enjoy hardly any of the Christmas movies that were on the Hallmark channel. But, that’s ok because the Christmas season will be upon us soon enough. Oh, and check out what my loving husband bought me tonight! We had to run my son up to the mall to get his new phone activated and we took a stroll into the Hallmark store. It’s the Hallmark Nightmare…

Christmas in July… Week 3
Miss Priss Plant Hanger You’re going to think this post has nothing to do with Christmas but I promise it does. This week’s project is for the plant lovers. The Miss Priss Plant Hanger is designed and named in honor of my niece, Priscilla. She’s a huge plant geek just like I am. This hanger is made to fit the 4 inch terra cotta pots. Those pots are absolutely perfect for putting a baby succulent or plant in. Or even better for you to take a cutting from your favorite plant to share with a loved one. All you need to do is buy a terra cotta pot, work up…

Christmas in July
You either love it or hate it…. personally, I LOVE IT!! Hallmark Movies & Mysteries has already begun their holiday movies and don’t get me wrong, I love them, but the real deal starts TODAY on the Hallmark Channel. Those are the good ones since nothing bag happens in them. No sad stories. There’s always a snowball fight and then the almost kiss. You know what I’m talking about. It’s awesome even though it’s cliche. The Christmas in July movies get me so excited every year. It’s just what I need to get myself into gear and start prepping for the holidays. It gets me so excited, that I have…
