I think Thanksgiving is a great holiday. I love spending an entire day with my family. We play football in the yard, deep fry a turkey, devour an amazing feast, and just enjoy being together. Unfortunately Thanksgiving often gets overshadowed by the fast approaching Christmas. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Christmas, but I get tired of the "I wants" and the growing "wish lists". So this year I wanted to do something to keep the focus on what we have to be thankful for. After doing some Pinterest research, and feeling inspired by my Facebook friends' daily thankful posts, I decided we would make a Thankful Tree and Thanksgiving Plates. I think they turned out really nice, and they were cheep and really easy to do. Check both tutorials out on my Holidays Page.

    About Me

    My name is Stephanie, I'm the mother of 3 handsome boys and 1 beautiful little girl. I love to craft and create. But I don't like to spend a lot of money doing it. So I decided to make a blog about my crafting successes, failures, and what I learn in the process. (And maybe a few posts about my crazy life) I really enjoy it when I see something I like and then figure out how to make it myself for less (or even for nothing at all). I get inspiration from Pinterest, Etsy, TV, and Magazines and I love to shop at Goodwill and other thrift stores. Hopefully my blog will help you get creative!
