This recycled craft will warm the heart of any fan of the highlands… I am a BIG fan of decorating BIG along with using what I have in different ways. I don’t often get to wear my wool plaid scarves here in SoCal but I love plaid so I just can’t get rid of them. […]
Sweet dreams for the happy couple with this super cute stenciled doe and buck pillow case set. I love to decorate with the deer theme whenever I can. I even simply use antlers most of the time. Included in the FolkArt Woodland set of stencils there is a charming set of doe and buck stencils […]
