Hello! Welcome to this week’s Happy List. I am honored that you are here. This week on the blog I shared the new table legs we made for our kitchen table. That project was long overdue. I also wrote a little tribute to our wedding anniversary. I love love, don’t you? As always, I am so thankful you chose to spend a few minutes here. I enjoy sharing what creatively inspires me and I love connecting with you and hearing what you’re up to. If you want to reach out, you can always comment on this blog post or email me here. You can also reach out on Instagram or…

Hello! Welcome to the Happy List. I’m glad you are here. Congratulations are in order. We made it to the end of January, the seemingly longest month of the year. Go us! We may or may not be crushing 2025, but we’re still here! HOUSE KEEPING NOTE: If you tried to comment on the blog this week and received a recaptcha error, I apologize. It should be fixed now. (crosses fingers) In fact, if you want to try to comment on this post to help me out, that would be great. Thank you to the person who reached out to me on social media to let me know. It takes…

Hello, welcome to the 375th edition of the Happy List! Whether this is your first or your 375th Happy List, I’m tickled to have you here. This week on the blog I shared the reveal of our refrigerator that we built in with cabinetry. That was a bigger job than we anticipated (they always are), but completely worth it. I also rounded up some of my favorite heart crafts made out of wood! I have a fondness for February because that’s when we got married. Of all the ways you could spend your time, I am so thankful you chose to spend a few minutes here. I enjoy sharing what…

Why, hello there! Welcome to this week’s Happy List. I am happy as a clam that you are here! This was Refrigerator Week on the blog. It’s more exciting than it sounds, at least for me. Ha! I wrote about the effort we expended to prep our kitchen to build a cabinet around the fridge. I also wrote about the things we did to customize an old refrigerator to make it look as close to panel-ready (a fridge with cabinet fronts) as possible without actually giving it cabinet fronts. Also, special thanks to Beth at Creatively Beth for featuring not one, but two of my Valentine’s Day crafts on her…

Hello and welcome to the first Happy List of 2025! I can see you’re starting the year off right by reading blogs and I, for one, would like to encourage this behavior. Not that I’m biased or anything. This week on the blog I discussed transitioning holiday wreaths to winter wreaths. It’s currently snowing and I’m already craving color, so don’t be surprised if I ditch the winter decor soon for tulips. I also shared how to make a magnetic bulletin board and why we had to make one in the first place. Be glad there are no pictures of the gross before. As always, thank you for being here.…

Hello! Welcome to the last Happy List of 2024. I know, I know. It’s a Monday and Happy Lists are supposed to happen on Fridays. Way to shake things up, Annisa! I thought one last round of things that inspired me would be a good way to sign off the blog until next year. Consider it a gift, of sorts, from me to you. As always, thank you for being here. It is an absolute honor to share this little spot on the internet with you. I pinch myself regularly that I am able to do this “work.” I put work in quotes not to minimize what I do, but…

Hello! Welcome to this week’s Happy List. It is less than a week to Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa! Are you ready? This week on the blog I shared more details about the Christmas ornaments I made this year. What will I do for next year? No idea, but it will be fun to figure out. I also shared how I decorated the fireplaces in our home for Christmas this year. There are three of them and each is a little different. As always, thank you for being here. I enjoy sharing what creatively inspires me and I love connecting with you. Seriously! I love hearing from you. If you want…

Hello! Welcome to this week’s Happy List. I am delighted to see you here today, especially on Friday the 13th. I’m not sure December needs the energy from a Friday the 13th, but we’ll roll with it. This week on the blog I shared the way I repurposed antique doorknobs to make Christmas decor. I’m obsessed with those cute little things. I also shared our Christmas tree! It’s in a new corner of the living room room this year. I’m really shaking things up. Haha! As always, thank you for being here. I enjoy sharing what inspired me this week and I love connecting with you. If you want to…

Hi! Welcome to the first Happy List of December. The year is flying by and I’m happy you’re spending a little bit of time here with me today. It was a big week on the blog. Maybe you should lower your expectations for next week. Ha! I shared our dining room mantel all decked out for Christmas with cardboard gingerbread houses. I also shared the recent makeover I did on the stairs that access our attic. I’m biased, but I love how both turned out. As always, thank you for being here. The Happy List is my way of balancing my media diet and finding the beautiful, interesting, and inspiring…
