However, when you have DIY holiday projects up your sleeve, you […]
Fall is such a great time of year. As a lover of colors, I particularly appreciate the changing leaves with all their hues of red, orange, brown, and yellow. My childhood home had seven or eight trees in the yard surrounding it, and at least four of them would drop leaves every autumn. Raking certainly […]

Winter is one of my favorite seasons of the year…to stay indoors. Don’t get me wrong—there are few things more beautiful in nature than the sight of untouched sparkly snow and icy trees. However, I much prefer admiring the snow from a distance, wrapped in a warm blanket and drinking a cup of hot cocoa. […]
Learning how to make your own snow globe has become a favorite activity for crafters of all ages. That’s because when you make a snow globe, you bring a touch of winter magic right into your home. Many other winter decorations are lovely, but they just don’t have that same whimsical appeal as a simple […]
