{Pool Table} Dining Room Tablecloth

before After pool table table cloth

What do you do when you need a table cloth that fits a massive pool table--table top? You certainly can't find one that fits (and looks good) at just any store, and if you try to buy one from a specialty store you are going to spend a ridiculous amount of money. My good friend, Sarah, from While They Snooze, suggested I buy 2 or 3 table cloths and sew them together. I took her advice, and that's exactly what I did! I'm so incredibly happy with how it turned out, and best of all I now have a … [Read more...]

Pearl Ribbon Necklace

Ribbon Pearl Necklace 1

I'm not one to make my own jewelry, so this is a fairly new concept for me. I figured a great way to take the plunge was to make a pearl ribbon necklace. It seemed fairly easy, and since I've been wanting to make one for quite some time I figured this would be a great beginner jewelry making project! As you know I guest blog from time-to-time on the Bowdabra blog, and by doing so I receive quite a bit of ribbon to use for my projects. Last month I receied a wide variety of the new Ribbon to … [Read more...]

Screen shot 2011-10-10 at 8.14.25 AM

I first got the idea to make this inexpensive Halloween decoration thanks to the all-might Pinterest. I pinned this idea a few months ago, and during one of my many trips to the Dollar Store I found Severed Hands. That's when it occurred to me that I could plant this bad boys and make my own sort of "zombie planted hands". Depending on how many Zombie Planted Hands you "plant" will depend on the cost of matierals. In my case I needed 6 hands (although 5 were only pictured at the time). That … [Read more...]

Cutting Vinyl with a Cricut {Mini Tutorial}

August 12, 2011 By 3 Comments

We posted a few weeks back about making your own Bean Bag Toss. We also mentioned that we were going to give the Bean Bag Toss we made to friends of ours as a gift. We wanted to customize the toss, so we decided to add some vinyl. Our friends just built a game room/bar next to their home *which is on acres of land out in the middle of no where. They have dubbed their new game room/bar as "The Joint in the Woods". We figured it would be most appropriate to add "The Joint in the Woods" to the … [Read more...]

Last Saturday, I had the opportunity to attend the Central Florida Bloggers Conference at Park Maitland School, in Maitland, Florida.
