about

I am a stay at home mom of two, ages 6 and 3. I enjoy doing crafts, particularly scrapbooking, although I do a lot of other crafts as well, like sewing and jewelry making. My time lately seems to be spent doing more projects for my home and my blogging certainly reflects that right now. I am hoping once I put to rest some of the DIY home projects I have in store, I can focus more on scrapbooking.

I started this blog as a personal blog, but realized a lot of what I was sharing was craft projects. I decided to focus on crafts and DIY to share with all of you what I love to do most - create! I am hoping to inspire you to get out there and realize you CAN make beautiful things for your home, family and friends.
