"time is making fools of us again" - j.k. rowling

i've been a bad blogger! from my normal forty-hour work week, to fulfilling orders, to trying to be the best wife in the world, to endless house hunting, to playing hair extraordinaire, trying to become a mommy to a teeny tiny prim & proper bulldog (more about that later), constant travels & do it yourself goodness - i have just lost track of time! there are many things in the works right now; they are just not photo worthy just yet! stay tuned, my friends! xo m

:: baking: Easter Treat ::



I got this adorable idea from Ms. Martha Stewart and just had to try it out. They were a huge hit at our Easter dinner! They were incredibly easy to make & will make an appearance again, I'm sure!

I also made some yellow melt chocolate covered oreo chickies... they just weren't photograph worthy though. I haven't mastered the chocolate covered anything yet... What types of treats did you make for Easter?

:: Happy Easter ::

Remembering the reason for the season. Happy Easter!

in You I find my peace
in You I find my strength
in You I live and move and breathe
let everything I say and do
be founded by my faith in You
i lift up holy hands and sing
let the praises ring!

Easter Bliss

I *borrowed* this idea from the Room to Inspire blog. Instead of the burlap used in the original tutorial; I used some extra minky fabric as well as a patterned fabric I had leftover from a previous project. Funny enough, the fabric actually has little bunnies on it as well - it was meant to be!


This was a quick and easy project that you and your children can create together. I plan on attaching the bunny to my niece's Easter basket. This would also be really cute as a name "place card" at your Easter brunch!

PS: Can you spot the bunny in the fabric?!

Happy Easter!!

* craft:: initial hook

These little hooks are perfect for any entry way, closet, bathroom, children's room... basically anywhere in your home or office! I made one for my closet to hold all of my fun, costume jewelry as well as one for the entry way for the Mr's keys!

photography: Tiffany's

Ms. Holly Golightly could not have said it any better... "That's right. I'm just *crazy* about Tiffany's!" Well... what girl isn't?! My wonderful, ever-so-loving husband, surprised me with not one, but TWO of those little blue boxes. My eyes widened like saucers! For ME?!!! I slowly opened the first box & to my surprise... a cupcake bracelet!!! Cupcakes & Tiffany's?!! NOT POSSIBLE! Oh, but it is! He surprised me with the cupcake charm to either put on a necklace or a bracelet. ::sigh:: pure bliss!
