I’ve kind of been in a crafty funk. With Halloween over, it still seems too early to make Christmas crafts, but I was totally uninspired for fall craft ideas. Finally, I stumbled onto some inspiration in the Target One Spot of all places. (more…)
It’s no secret: I love owls and I love Halloween. I saw an owl on Pinterest that I really liked from Lincoln Street blog. You can see it in her post here, but I’m not sure if she actually made it. I had no idea where she got it from, so I determined I would make one of my own. (more…)

I’ve been seeing these “mixed media journals” AKA SMASH books everywhere – they have them at the craft store, in blog posts – everyone has one, but no one can really explain what it is.
