These DIY grill rubs are the perfect present to mix up for Father’s Day (or any other guy-gifting occasion). I might’ve mentioned once or twice that Adam is not the *easiest* person to buy/make presents for. But years ago, I made DIY grill rubs from some spice mix recipes here on the blog and they […]
edible christmas gift idea- pesto pasta dinner kits
Who would’ve guessed that our surprise once-every-ten-years snowstorm would stir up such a flurry of surprise posts? But these cutest little edible Christmas gifts are another one! Adam tromped out in the snow to save all our massive bushes of basil, turning my kitchen into a veritable pesto factory the day after the snow. And […]
teacher appreciation gift printables
I have such a special place in my heart for teachers. Not only did I used to be one (and thus know just how challenging AND rewarding that job can be), we also have somehow lucked out with a running streak of awesome teachers for the kids. I hope they know they’re appreciated all year […]
christmas gift wrap idea- picture wrap!
I’ve mentioned in the past that we had a ton of Christmas Eve traditions growing up, and we are trying to continue most of them with our little family. Which means Christmas Jammies on Christmas Eve! This year, I made personalized gift wrap for the kiddos and thought I’d pass the idea along. To create […]
edible christmas gift idea- gourmet cookie dough
I may or may not have been *slightly* late to the game in figuring out that I need gifts for all of the wonderful people that work at Adam’s office. And then I may or may not have spent an afternoon weekend perusing pinterest and all sorts of old blog recipes trying to figure out the […]
gift wrap ideas- the prettiest packages
So I’ve always loved pink Christmas trees and white Christmas trees with sweet pink decorations, but am fully committed to a “family tree” (aka- a place to pile on all of our eclectic, homemade, and souvenir ornaments). However, last year Adam got me a rose gold tree when artificial trees went on sale. Pair that […]
DIY wooden mountains
I pulled these DIY wooden mountains down from Bohden’s nursery to use as décor for his bear birthday party. And then we used them for a sweet friend’s mountain-y bridal shower. And then we put them up as décor on the mantel for a Woodlands-y baby shower. At all three of these parties, people kept […]
DIY mini bath bombs
We are starting to make our Christmas lists around here, which is pretty much my favorite. We do two sets of lists- lists of things we’d like to receive for Christmas, but then also lists of everyone that we want to surprise with a gift this year and ideas of what they might like. We love […]
lemon rosemary salt scrub recipe
With Mother’s Day just around the corner (how, may I ask, did that happen? It was just Valentine’s Day, right?), we thought we’d pass along this oh-so-easy, and yet oh-so-fabulous, lemon rosemary salt scrub recipe. Because, last minute DIY gift perfection. In fact, with sandal season upon us, it’s so easy that you might make […]
free printable lego gift wrap
I am so excited about this printable Lego gift wrap y’all. Seriously. Allofthehearteyes about it. And here’s why- pretty much every time I give Legos as a present, the recipient knows they are Legos. In Burke’s case, it’s because his entire wish list is Legos. But even for Piper (who usually receives an even mix […]
