Tutorial Tuesday: Pup treats and a GIVEAWAY!

Hello! My goodness, I don't know about you but weeks have been flying by lately and I can barely keep up. Halloween came and went in a blink, Thanksgiving is days away and Christmas will be here before we know it. Time has got to slow down a bit. I was always told- time is going to go by faster and faster as you get older. Man, they weren't kidding!

Ok so this weeks tutorial is a little different than the others. The others have been more "crafty" but this one involves baking. But not for you, for your pup! This week I've decided to share a recipe i've been using for a little while now. Pup treats! I know some of your may not have pets but that's ok. But some of you do and your pup's will love this recipe for sure! I found it on the internet a while back and have changed it up many different ways and this way is what I found to be the best. : ) They are much, MUCH cheaper to make than to buty in the store and much healthy for your pup. Here's what you'll need:

Tutorial Tuesday: Give Thanks Jar

Holy toledo it has been a long...long couple weeks with this move. I've decided I don't like moving! It was fun for the first few days but now I am officially over it. I'm done! We are almost finished painting and have all our furniture in the house. All that is left now is to clean, unload boxes, organize, decorate, and get the yard fixed up. Sigh. That list just gave me anxiety. Ever had 500 things to do and no idea where to begin?...yeah, that's this girl right now. I'm running out of petrol oh and did I mention I don't like moving?

Ok, enough of that...I do see a light at the end of this long, very long tunnel. The end is near. Thank you Jesus! It will all pay off in the end and I am really looking forward to it. I apologize for all that... I feel better now. Really I do.

Tuesday Tutorial: Acorn Frame

I've got a quick tutorial for you today... because I have boxes all over my house up to my ears, more painting to do than I want think about and stuff scattered between two houses. We are moving this week and it has been NUTS!

Recipe of the week: Icebox cake

We were going to my sisters the other night for family night and we were in charge of the dessert. Yum! I love being in charge of dessert. There was a request made for the Icebox cake I made a few weeks past. I don't mind making recipes I've made before, especially this one. I think it's fun to tweak things here and there to try to make it new.

So, while deciding which recipe to share with you...I thought, what better than the Icebox cake!

A little taste of what's to come

I can't believe the holidays are right around the corner. I love every single solitary thing there is to love about the holidays. The stores are decorated. Family get togethers. Scented candles. Pumpkin pie. Windows are open. Shopping. Pulling tubs of decorations down from the attic. I love it all.

Speaking of the holidays...I am just about ready to add holiday bows (among a few other things) to the shoppe. These ribbons are so fun! Here is a little taste of whats to come!

Tutorial Tuesday: Placemat Pillows

Ok ladies, no sewing or ironing. Promise! Just a little hot glue will do the trick.

I came across a few different placemats while out the other day and thought…those could make a couple cute pillows. I remembered I had a set of four I picked up at Goodwill for $1.50 over a year ago, that I have yet to use…I am unfortunately known for that.  They are not nearly as cute as the others I saw but will do the trick! So I ripped the tag off those suckers and made’em into pillows!

Triple Chocolate Truffle

If you're a fan of chocolate, chocolate or chocolate than this one is for you. I personally would not say I am a huge chocolate fan but this is to die for. I came across this recipe and couldn't  resist giving it a try and well, to be honest it won my heart - instantly. If I had to describe this dessert in five words, they would be...It is oh so easy and a huge crowd pleaser. Ok, so that's more then five words, but this is about indulgence. Fun to make too. Here's how...

Blank Canvas

Ok...so I decided to create a blog. Yep, that's right...a blog. Upon reading others I got inspired and decided to make my own. Can honestly say I never thought the idea would interest me. But it did...and I kinda like it. I like the idea of a new way to challenge my creativity and capture life, love and the little things...So, I am excited to start my new journey on this blank canvas and bring color, fun and smiles to it!
