DIY Fabric Pennant Banner

This is a great project, even for a beginner. If you can cut triangles and sew in a straight line, you have all the skills you need. I prefer sewing it, but you could use Stitch Witchery in a pinch. We hung ours in our son’s nursery as a solution to a blank wall (we aren’t… Read More DIY Fabric Pennant Banner

Two Minute Sensory Bottle with Everyday Items

This DIY project is so easy it’s laughable. You can make it in two minutes with items you likely have in your pantry. Baby toys and activities don’t need to be complicated or expensive. Here’s how you make it: Step 1: Gather your supplies – Empty water bottle, label removed (I used coconut oil to… Read More Two Minute Sensory Bottle with Everyday Items

Ultra Hydrating Homemade Body Butter

We often forget that our skin is our largest organ. Everything we put on our skin can be absorbed into the body. Maybe you eat organic, whole foods. You drink water, exercise, and get eight hours of sleep. If you haven’t taken a serious look at your beauty routine though, now is the time. Here… Read More Ultra Hydrating Homemade Body Butter

Homemade Play Clay

Every opportunity I get I introduce our 9 month old to sensory experiences. Everything in the world is new to him and I love watching him discover and learn. This morning I whipped up a batch of play clay he can squish through his fingers, mold, poke, and throw. I’ve been meaning to buy some… Read More Homemade Play Clay

Christmas Craft- Salt Dough Handprint Santa Ornaments

I am so excited to share this craft with you today. Yes, this is another one of those ideas I saw floating around Pinterest that screamed my name and gave me an excuse to ignore the boxes in our closet that have yet to be unpacked.

Christmas Craft – Mistletoe Footprints

It’s December, which means the countdown to my favorite holiday has begun. It also means my poor son will be the pawn in all the crafts and projects I feel like making this year. Our first craft is a canvas with tiny footprints decorated like mistletoe. We did this one to surprise daddy, but if… Read More Christmas Craft – Mistletoe Footprints

DIY Monthly Onesies- Photo Op!

Our son is two months old today, which means it’s time to update the baby book and take some pictures. We want to make sure we capture all of his milestones because we know babies grow up quickly. In order to do so, we’re taking pictures of him each month in these DIY onesies. One… Read More DIY Monthly Onesies- Photo Op!

Thanksgiving Day Menu and Crafts

This is a big Thanksgiving for us. It’s our first year hosting and it’s PW’s first turkey day. My family is coming down from Seattle to see us (…see the baby) so there’s slightly more pressure to pull off a great meal, although in the grand scheme of things I doubt they care about the… Read More Thanksgiving Day Menu and Crafts

DIY $10 Rustic Storage Crate

With mere weeks to go until this baby is born, my husband and I are crossing items off our list and getting those last-minute things for our baby. We have a little nook in our hallway that we’re using for late-night feedings. We don’t need much furniture in the little area, so aside from the… Read More DIY $10 Rustic Storage Crate

Easiest Sewing Project Ever- DIY Adjustable Crib Skirt

News flash: baby bedding can be crazy expensive. Most of it is also a death trap. Sure, our parents used crib bumpers with us and here I am alive today, but think about putting one on your baby’s crib now and you’ll be nominated for the “worst parent of the year” award. Are people worrying… Read More Easiest Sewing Project Ever- DIY Adjustable Crib Skirt
