Hello! Welcome to this week’s Happy List. I’m thrilled you’ve joined me here. This week on the blog we made the transition from Halloween to Thanksgiving. First, I addressed the issue of whether or not our house was haunted. Second, I shared how to make turkey art out of denim jeans. It’s not as weird as it sounds. We are so thankful to you for reading this blog. It makes our day. If you want to share the blog or an idea we post on social media, we would be very grateful. We also love talking to you. If you want to connect with us or ask a question, you…

Hello! Welcome to this week’s Happy List! I’m delighted you are here. This week on the blog I shared an easy-to-make wheat wreath. If you’ve always wanted to make something with those cool, gold floral hoops, this is your project! I also shared the antique music stand that I found for our music room. I’ve idly been looking for a music stand for years and this ended up being THE one. I love it. Thank you for reading this blog. It makes our day – both mine and Handy Husband’s. If you want to share the blog or an idea we post on social media, we would be very grateful.…

Hello! Welcome to this week’s Happy List. The world is a heavy place and I intentionally keep the Happy List light as a respite from that. Hopefully, it gives your brain a chance to rest before you get back to reality. That’s a long way of saying I’m delighted you are here. Feel free to stay as long as you want and come back often. This week on the blog I shared the gallery wall I’ve been working on in our living room. It has a whole bunch of mismatched nature art and I’m infatuated with it. It’s going to make me a little sad to take it down in…

Hello! Welcome to the Happy List. I’m delighted you are here. This week on the blog was an eclectic one. I like to keep you on your toes! I shared the home maintenance task we’ve been focused on and how that’s led to some ‘interesting’ conversations. I also wrote about hot sauce and all the things the recipes don’t tell you about making hot sauce. Thank you for reading this blog. It makes our day – both mine and Handy Husband’s. If you want to share the blog or an idea we post on social media, we would be very grateful. We also love talking to you. If you want…

Hi! Welcome to this week’s Happy List. I’m glad you’re here. This week on the blog I shared pictures of our fall front porch. I can’t explain why but I love decorating for this season more than any other. I also wrote about the new curtains in our kitchen, which is another space that is giving off fall vibes. Fall must be my season! Thank you for reading this blog. It makes our day – both mine and Handy Husband’s. If you want to share the blog or an idea we post on social media, we would be very grateful. We also love talking to you. If you want to…

Hey, hey, hey! Welcome to this week’s Happy List. I’m glad you’re here. First, fun news! My Halloween Duct Tape Decals were featured over at My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia, Funky Junk Interiors, and Creatively Beth. It never gets old to have your work showcased on someone else’s website. This week on the blog I shared a flower arrangement I made using a vintage toolbox as the vase. I tend to make more flower arrangements in the fall than any other time. I’m not sure why but I’m not complaining about it. I also revealed the new rocking chairs on our front porch. Those have been a long time coming…

Hi! Welcome to this week’s Happy List. I hope you enjoy being here so much that you come back again. This week on the blog I shared our dining room mantel all decorated for fall with my leaf-stamped wood rounds. I love that this mantel will take me all the way through the end of November. I also wrote about our quest (dramatic much?) to find a new bluetooth speaker that looked good and sounded good. We only need our speaker to play music or podcasts. I don’t need it to run my life, so that’s why we don’t have a voice assistant like Alexa. Thank you for reading this…

Hi! Welcome to the Happy List. I’m so glad you’re here. This week on the blog I shared how to leaf stamp on wood. I don’t make things just for the sake of making something. I have to use it! Next week I’ll share how I’m using these stamped wood rounds in my house. It looks so good and not at all like a preschool craft. (Pretty sure.) I also shared the happiest craft I’ve made in a good long while – Halloween decals with duct tape. This craft was pure joy and I’m going to love the heck out of my decals for the next two months as they…

Happy first day of September and welcome to this week’s Happy List. I’m glad you’re here. This week on the blog I shared some tips for helping your child transition to a new school. I’m not a psychology or education expert. I’m just a mom who has learned a few things after our kids have transitioned to new schools many times. I also wrote about when, how, and why to match your picture frames to your wall color. Hint: DRAMA! Or, maybe, like me, you just rant out of other color options that looked good. Ha! Thank you for reading this blog. I don’t take your time here for granted.…

Hello! Welcome to this week’s Happy List. I’m delighted you are here. It’s been a bit of a transition week for us. One of our kids started school. The other has another week. The school bus comes at 7:08 a.m. Between you and me, I’m not operating at peak performance levels at 7 a.m. This week on the blog I wrote about the best part of summer. I neglected to mention in that blog post that not having the school bus come at 7 a.m. is my REAL favorite part of summer. Haha! I also shared the wood acorn wreath I made. I absolutely love it and think this is a…
