Christmas Light Up Marquee DIY
Hey, everyone. It's Laura! There are a lot of things to love about the holiday season (like time with family and friends or delicious food), but one of my favorite things about Christmas is the decor. I love the glittery silver and gold and the soft glow of candles and Christmas lights. So this...
Update on Today
Wow! What a rough couple of weeks for my family. We didn't get much of a chance to celebrate Bouncer's 7th birthday because Paul had kidney stones. Emergency room - seriously thought he was dieing, I have never been so scared, CAT scans, lots of pain killers, visits to the... Continue reading

Tin Can Planter
I love gardening. I really love gardening. And with my current apartment situation gardening outside is not an option, even a container garden. I thought I would have to wait and then I thought maybe, just maybe, a small herb garden on my window sill would be a way to... Continue reading

Paper & Glue - Some Pages
I really enjoy taking out my art journals at night and doodle, draw, paint, glue, whatever. It's so great for winding down or working out frustrations of the day in a healthy way. If you have always wanted to try out art this is a very safe, inexpensive way to... Continue reading

Listening To... Phoenix
This is the first Phoenix album I have ever owned and I must admit what drew me to it was it's gray cover with orange and pink on it. My favorite! Phoenix Bankrupt! Also, *cough* it was only $9.99 at Target. I was in the mood to try something new... Continue reading

French Macaroons, We Have Arrived!
It all started with this tweet... Our days of living a lie are over! We have tasted macaroons and they are... kind of strange but good. Sadly, we did not make them. So maybe our days of craft fraud double life are not over completely. But, I would like to... Continue reading

Trying Something New
I have always considered myself a "doodler". Meaning, I don't really draw, I don't really paint, I am not pursing being an artist. I'm just a happy little doodler. I'm not ready to shed the title doodler and I'm not making a big statement about being an Artist now, but... Continue reading

Vote!
It's super important to me (Jess). I started caring about politics my sophomore year of high school and worked on the Clinton/Gore campaign, making phone calls, handing out buttons, etc. It was before I could even vote. Some of my politics have changed over the years but I still think... Continue reading
