Creative & Pinteresting

If it’s crafty, artsy, design-related, day-dreamy, storytelling, photography, or otherwise makes my life easier through innovation, then you will find it here.

Macro Lily

I played with my macro lens some more this week. This time, my favorite cat Lily is on the other side of the glass. She just sat there and looked at me while I flashed away. I'm super excited, because I caught what I wanted to in serious clarity [...]

Macro Lens Flower

For my 30th and Valentine's Day, my wonderful husband got me a 100mm Macro Lens for my Rebel! I am so excited! Here are some of the shots that I took messing around with a plant that was in my in-law's kitchen. I moved it to the porch and [...]

Cow

Lately, I feel like a cow. I'm breastfeeding my son, and it's taking everything I have to keep up the pace. We recently decided to supplement with bottles, and I am not sure how I feel about it. I went to a petting zoo with my kiddos this week, [...]

Egg and Pepper

My mom makes this every time I go home, and it's one of my favorites. I recently began making it in my own home. My girl loves it (2.5 yrs old), and so does the hubby. It works as a lunch or dinner just as well as for a [...]

Lobster Pie

I love lobster! This one is a yummy Christmas Party Classic for my family of origin. My sister still makes it for her parties, and it goes so fast that this year she almost didn't get any! People know to get in line early, and take as much as [...]

Initial In The Box

Even if you aren't crafty, this project takes only a few minutes and gives you a creative decoration for a child's room! When Girl was born, her Aunt Gee and Uncle Z gave her wooden initials. I made them into initial shadow boxes to hang on her bedroom wall [...]

Fonts

I have been asked by several people where I come up with my fonts. I have several resources, but I will include some links here for free font sites. Lately, if I am making a logo or something of that nature, I will manually manipulate these fonts within Photoshop to [...]

Back To Reality – Countdown to Thanksgiving

After a fantastic October that included the birth of WickedBoy and a few weeks of leave for WickedHubby, we enter November back in reality. Somehow there's always a place in my mind that cons me into believing that the world will change because my life did. Wait, we have [...]

Silly Suppers

During our last deployment at our last base, I was the new mom of a 2.5 month old. I was selling my house in preparation for a cross-country move, and it was the holiday season. In the military, lots of us call deployments like this one "Operation Deny Holiday". [...]
