New Blog Button!

creatively-southern-button

Hey there peeps! Hope you had a good weekend! We had two straight days of rainy weather here which left me to finding things to do to entertain a toddler indoors.  Lucky for me, she was very content to coloring, planning an indoor tea party, helping clean and cook, dancing around the house with mommy, playing with legos, and watching Mickey’s Clubhouse. Every.single.episode. :)

I did manage to get some time yesterday to tweak a few things on the blog and I’ll be sharing tips with you later this week. I’ve really been wanting to work on a logo design, but that’s a project that I’m learning I can’t do by myself. [Please click to continue reading...]

Random Facts About Me

25-random-facts

Hi friends! Today’s post is a little different from what you usually see here. There’s no DIY projects today, no crafty creations, or homemade recipes. Today is simply about me. Wow, does that feel weird! Not in a selfish kinda way is this about me. No, this is because I want to know more about YOU! Since I’ve been tweaking a few things on the blog, I’ve realized that there are several projects, how-to’s, and lots of holiday decorating, but not much under the surface of who I am and all my quirkiness. Let me tell you, there is plenty of quirky where I come from. (Some would probably call it dorky, but whatevs.)

So here are 25 random facts about me and I hope you’ll share a few about you (so I know I’m not alone here in my crazy world!) :)

New Year Goals

resolution

Happy New Year peeps!! It’s time to look at what changes are coming for us in 2013. Do you make new year resolutions? In our home, we don’t like to call them resolutions. Mostly because resolutions are something that you never keep, right? So, we make goals. Yeah, we know we need to exercise more, spend less, eat healthy, stop procrastinating, reduce, reuse, and recycle, all that good stuff. But this goes beyond all the bad habits we are trying {Read More}

Heavy Hearted

Although I had a post ready for today, I cannot think of anything but the heartache and sadness from the shooting in the Connecticut elementary school Friday. My heart hurts so much for everyone involved; especially the innocent children who’s lives were much too short and the parents and families left behind. I cannot even begin to imagine what it must be like for them. Cannot. even. begin. It’s only natural that many would question their faith when something this {Read More}
