As promised yesterday, here is my new list of goals that I hope to accomplish before my next birthday. On a sidenote, I might be getting old enough that I need to do like a half-age before age kind of list (i.e. 16 before 32). Or else fill it up with really easy...
It's that time of year again. No, not pumpkin spice season. Today is my birthday! I turned 31 in the wee hours of this morning. We are kind of Event'd out, though, so not doing anything big. Ian has something small planned for tonight, and then tomorrow we're doing...
As promised yesterday, here is my new list of goals to (hopefully) accomplish before my next birthday. Take a vacation with just Ian (I've pretty much decided this will go on the list every year). Get to see my little sister. Create a lookbook for the screen printing...

I've been talking about painting rooms in the house for a few weeks now. I got sidelined for a little bit with my back being hurt, but this past week I finished up all of the little touches in the master suite. And today, I'm showing you our transformed master...
Awhile back I joined in a Pinterest Challenge to try to actually DO some of the things I'd pinned. It ended up being easier and more fun than I'd anticipated, so I've decided to do it again, on my own with no link-up. I've picked 6 pins that I want to accomplish in...
Between sewing lessons improving my skills, and being sort of broke when it came time for buying Christmas gifts, I tried to think of things I could make to give family. Now, my mom is a kindergarten teacher up in Ohio. They have outdoor recesses even in the winter....
1. I started the Beginner Sewing Series at Stitch Lab on Friday. We went over the basics of our machines (which was useful as refresher since I hadn't touched my machine in awhile), and learned how to make a drawstring bag. The also introduced me to an oh-so-handy...
