DIY Painted Sugar Skull

October 1, 2014 By Tanya 29 Comments

    I have a heavy influence of Spanish and Native American art and history in my artistic psyche, probably since I grew up in a community with both cultures represented via food, art, and music, they are interests that I find myself continually drawn to.  And, I love bright colors, and sometimes a well-placed…

 So, it’s almost Fall right? Like, so close to Fall that a pretty, glittery wreath is totally necessary at this point. I mean, when do we not need a new wreath, you know, never.   So, I am working (yeah on like 5 ongoing projects at the same time because we love a challenge right?)…

Dots & Burlap Happy Easter Banner

March 12, 2014 By Tanya 14 Comments

Are you seeing signs of spring where you live? I found our little cherry blossom buds blooming on their branches, and tiny daffodils reaching for the sun, getting a bit taller each day.  Do you get a little flurry of excitement when you see those first blooms and longer days? I sure do, they are…

Gilded Washi {Dollar Store} Binder Clips

March 4, 2014 By Tanya 28 Comments

  I realized this weekend that I have never done a washi tape post. Like, not one. So while I was cleaning (yes, the craft hoard is a mess.  again) I found a few pretty rolls I had picked up a while ago.  And if you give a girl some boring office supplies, some washi…

DIY Cake Stands

March 2, 2014 By Tanya 31 Comments

      I am really loving color right now, especially against a clean, light background.  It’s so fresh and pretty, there aren’t a whole lot of things more refreshing than the vibrant colors of springtime.     Do you remember the antique white stands  I shared last fall? They held my shabby fabric pumpkins…

DIY Rag Rug Throw Pillows

February 4, 2014 By Tanya 19 Comments

   We seem to go through pillows, or pillow covers quickly. For me it is more of an evolution of an admitted pillow addiction.  But for the kids, it is survival of the fittest.  Especially pillows that are destined (or have the unfortunate luck) to end up in our playroom. I love our playroom.  I…
