Remember last month's Apple themed greeting cards from #MyFavoriteBloggers? This month, the theme was "Pumpkins", and I finally got to create a fall craft! Somehow, I've just never gotten around to making anything for fall. I'm not a huge fan of Halloween, and last...
One of my favorite drawers in my 72-drawer card catalog renovation is the one holding my collection of embroidery thread. It's just so pretty and totally appeals to the crazy, anal-retentive organization nerd in me. When I used to cross stitch, I had a little...

Last week, I had posted that some friends and I were going to be making snowflakes to send to the Connecticut PTSA to help decorate a new school for the students of Sandy Hook Elementary. Since then, they have posted on their website that they are no longer taking...
