While the obvious answer is to simply keep the phone away from water, that’s easier said than done. Just a few months ago, I bought a new phone on my Walmart Family Mobile monthly plan. It was time for […]

All opinions are mine alone. #YourTaxCash #CollectiveBias We recently used some of our tax refund to upgrade our phones and service through Walmart Family Mobile. The Upgrade came with a free (valued at $7 same as a new release rental) monthly movie credit through VUDU so I thought it would be fun to plan a special family movie night and include the toddler since […]

Hand/Heart String Art Valentines Gift Idea – You + Me
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.
I recently created and hung a hand/heart string art creation in our room. When I was a child, my mom had these two string art sail boats that hung in the guest bedroom. Like Anne of Green Gables, I had a slight fascination with that room. It was always quiet and sort of mysterious in there. I would sneak in and look at the wall paper with the prints of gentlemen and ladies lounging under trees, strolling by the stream […]

The other night it got pretty hot in our room and I woke up sweating, […]
Old Dresser to Toy Shelves Makeover
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.
I love makeovers. Similar to the way we are made new in Christ, makeovers take something old and worm transforming it into a work of art. Thus my old dresser to toy shelves makeover. Our current toy storage system was okay, but as little man grew, his toy supply did too. Something needed to change and given the small size of our house I wasn’t sure what to do. Until I got the idea to change an old dresser to […]
Shower Spa Bombs – Make your Shower a Spa Experience!

I’ve been seeing these shower spa bombs on Pinterest and really wanted to give them a try. They all seemed to have the same basic instructions, mix soda and water and dry. Time to give them a try! Some instructions said to mix the oils in with the soda water, others said to add the oils after drying the “pucks”. Some recipes said air dry for 24 hours, others said to dry in the oven. After a bit of experimentation […]

All opinions are mine alone. #GiftOfPhilips #CollectiveBias I don’t know about you, but I often find men to be very tricky to buy for.

Someone once asked me what my all time favorite item was that I’ve reviewed, and in nearly 4 years […]

Burlap Mason Jars and Fall

I love fall! Did you hear that? I LOVE FALL!!! The weather becomes a little nicer and sleeping with windows open and a cool breeze whisking in is just about the most refreshing way to rest that I can think of. Especially with all the little night bugs singing their tunes. Another reason to love fall is the food! The crisp, sweet-tart smell of apples and the smooth rich smell of pumpkin. The apple tree did great this year […]
Mason Jar Lights for Fall
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.
With fall coming on, for some reason I got it into my head that I wanted some “warm” outdoor lighting. I knew I wanted to make Mason Jar Lights but wasn’t quite sure how to go about it. Candles seemed neat but also very short-term. That’s when I got the idea to use string lights. It was perfect timing when a company asked me to review their solar-powered string lights on Amazon. I immediately knew I would use them, but had […]

If you’ve ever wanted a simple bible memorization trick, printed or written out verses placed around your house are the answer. Today I want to show you how easy it is to make your own printables. It’s best to choose graphics for this and not photos. Photos tend to take up far more ink and unless you have a professional printer, they never look as nice on paper as they do on your screen.

I am sharing How to Make a Tie Dye Tablecloth thanks to BluePrint Social and Tulip® #TieDyeYourSummer I’ve always thought shibori style dying was beautiful.

Creative Air Plant Decorations for Gifts
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.
There were a lot of confused people last week when I posted a photo of my to-do list on Instagram and one task simply said: “air plants”. People were wondering if “air plants” meant placing house plants outside. It made me chuckle. While I’m sure one could “air” their house plants, I was referring to my need to make my Creative Air Plant Decorations for Gifts. Air plants are in the Genus Tillandsia and there are over 500 species of […]

Something about spring makes me want to grow things. I don’t know if it’s the siren-smell of coming-to-life dirt, or what it is. But spring is the one time I like to dig my hands down into the earth and plant gardens and flower beds. It’s also when my creative juices like sap, flow fast and free. Bubbling up and out into amazing ideas. Like my pallet planter for butterflies. Because just having pretty flowers this year wasn’t good […]
