I love these Free iPhone Wallpapers from Kim at Everyday Parties. She has a whole year’s worth of images available. I haven’t done a lot of work with graphic design, other than a little here and there for the blog, so I appreciate other people’s efforts and talents. Drop by and check out all of…
Check out this fun project from Chas’ Crazy Creations. It makes use of a string of battery operated lights to put some sparkle into a painted canvas. There are so many different possibilities with this craft!
Claire at Pillar Box Blue has another simple but beautiful project that will make a beautiful display this winter. You won’t need a drill or an outlet for these easy lanterns because the LED lights are powered by a battery in the cork! They’d look awesome lighting my hallway. You have to drop by Claire’s…
Victoria at Dazzle While Frazzled shared a great tutorial on how to set up a Couples Gallery Wall. Of course, the tutorial can be applied to any gallery wall, but I appreciate that this particular one includes both heads of the household. Too often the decor in a home reflects just one partner (usually the…
I really enjoy the concept behind this pretty floral hanging from Adrienne at Wonderful Creations Blog. She cleverly combined found objects from her yard with stash objects in her craft room to come up with this pretty home decor item. There are so many ways to go with this craft! Vary the flowers, add some…
Tarah from Grandma’s House DIY shared a great project for organizing all the jewelry that collects on the the nightstand. She started with an inexpensive mirror and went from there. You know you could adapt this for other types of frames. This post comes along at a good time because I’ve been thinking about making…

We’ve entered the rainy/gloomy season here in Spain. Already I find myself sleeping later in the morning and wearing long pants. You get used to carrying an umbrella and wearing layers. The cafes have started putting their tables in storage until next season, see you later sunshine. On the bright side, the bars have started…
It looks like October is going to fly by as quickly as September. Yesterday I sat in front of the TV and watched a movie marathon of 90s actions films. Today I planned to watch Big Bang Theory but apparently Netflix Spain no longer carries the show, can you believe it? They do have Star…
Our friends from Moldova are taking a driving tour through Spain and have stopped by to stay with us for a few days. It’s been fun to see our adopted city through new eyes. For this week’s featured post I’ve chosen this beautiful Thank You Card from Terri at Nutz About Stamping I love the…
I feel like September got away from me a bit. I was travelling, preparing to travel or recovering from travelling the entire month! I’m ready to settle into Autumn and make the transition to cooler weather although Rick is not happy about it. That being said, based on the pumpkin themed crafts being shared with…
I immediately thought of my grandchildren when I saw these delightful fleece hand puppets from Mary at Joy With Purpose. You’ll find patterns and detailed instructions in her post. Make a set for the young ones in your life and be prepared to watch some really cute puppet shows.
