Although winter definitely has its downsides – hello, snow-shoveling and icy roads – the truth is that I usually spend the rest of the year thinking about how much I love all of the cute accessories that come along with it. You can’t exactly wear a hat and scarf in the middle of July (unless […]
I definitely could define my style as being a bit on the feminine side. Frills, lace, florals – you name it, I’ve probably worn it at some point this week. So I’m always bummed out each year when winter rolls around and suddenly it’s too cold to wear anything except the chunkiest sweater you can […]
Today’s post is something festive and fun! This is the time of year where all I want to do is curl up on the couch and watch Christmas movies. With all of the holiday happenings that go on this time of year, it can be hard to think about what you’d like to start sewing […]
I don’t know about you, but when it comes to decorating for the holiday season, I’m usually looking for something cheap and simple but still festive. Our house always plays host to both Thanksgiving AND Christmas dinners, so every year it seems like before I’ve even gotten the last of the cranberry sauce out of […]
By now we’ve been seeing Christmas decor in just about every store since right around the time Halloween ended. I’ve been seeing some really cute holiday decorating ideas like throw pillows, dish towels, and Christmas bunting, but – maybe because they know we won’t have it displayed for very long – all of it has […]
When there’s a new baby in the family, you know how important it is to make all of their first holidays a magical experience.

What’s more adorable than little woodland critters scuttling around the forest? Think Bambi-esque; it doesn’t get much cuter. I always had a soft spot for Thumper, and bunnies in general. In winter, with everything covered in a thick blanket of snow, animals look stunning against the bright white. I always love when I catch a glimpse […]
As the weather gets colder, it’s no big surprise that people tend to prefer jeans, leggings, and comfy yoga pants over skirts and dresses. Tights can be a pain to deal with and your favorite summer dress doesn’t always look as stunning when paired with a sweater and boots. If you love dresses but hate […]
I’m notoriously cold in the winter time. It’s not uncommon to for me to walk around my college campus wearing fleece leggings under my jeans, three sweatshirts, a winter jacket, an ear warmer, a hat, gloves, three pairs of socks, and boots. No exaggeration. My quilted jean blanket is my lifeline when I’m working in my […]
There’s no denying that while we may hate icy weather, we love cuddling up indoors. There’s something so comforting about snuggling up in front of the fire under a warm blanket. If you have to brave bad winter weather, why not do it in style and make a cozy sewing project that looks fashionable and keeps […]
