Occasionally I do things other than cooking and felt flowers. And by occasionally, I mean every day I design things. Signage, brochures, invitations, flyers, marketing plans, billboards....and so on. And while we're being honest here, I'm also a keep-it-on-the-down-low-Tone It Up-er. As cheesy as some of it may be, the workouts, change of pace and [...]
What's great about this recipe is you use whatever you have available, and the outcome can be very different every time. What you need: 1 head of cabbage, chopped 2 carrots, peeled and chopped 1/2 cup frozen corn, defrosted roasted red peppers (mine came from a jar), plus juice 1/2 small onion, chopped 1 tomato, [...]

It's pretty fantastic what you can accomplish in a few text messages! A dear friend was hosting a brunch for the arrival of her friend's third child (yes, third ;). She sent me the invite via text and asked what I could come up with to dress up the tables. Luckily for her I had [...]
I'm participating in the March Meet the Maker Instagram challenge this month. It's my second year and only at seven days in, and I'm already feeling so inspired! Even though several of the prompts are the same as last year, I have pushed myself to think outside the box - and even plan ahead on [...]
