Bathroom Makeover – ORC Week 1

The challenge, which takes place in April and September, was conceived and is hosted by Linda of Continue reading...

Decorating with Wall Art — 12 Months of Goals
Once a month, my friend Carrie of Curly Crafty Mom and I both set a monthly goal for ourselves. It's a great way to get things accomplished. It's been rough for me lately.
