Do you like ribbon? I might have a little bit of a ribbon problem… If it weren’t for my budget limitations, I would have every ribbon possible! This is a month of love for me – my sweet guy was born on February 5th! Valentine’s Day swoops in right after that. I’d been thinking of(…)
Happy Halloween from Jax & I! My little man decided he wanted to be a “choo choo” this year. He has since learned that he is actually an “engineer”. I love how his costume came together! And it was very cheap to do. His clothes were: Osh Kosh overall bought when they went on sale(…)
I’m so excited to be working with e-textiles again! (The robot page was my first effort.) Quiet books and LEDs can really be a perfect pairing. I really like to include a lot of interaction into my page designs, and what better to add than working lights? This is a very simple e-sewing project –(…)
It’s been a while since I’ve reviewed an iPad app, but we certainly try out a lot of them! I mostly get apps for Jax by checking the iTunes app store regularly for free educational apps. As those of you on the Facebook page know, I often post links to apps that are free for(…)
Scroll down for a giveaway! I’m in the process of turning Jax’s old nursery (a room that adjoins our master bedroom) into a craft room. A spare room down the hall is becoming Jax’s big boy room. My budget is pretty much nonexistent, so I’m thrifting and salvaging whatever I can. On a recent trip(…)
Camping! S’mores! Lanterns! This page is sponsored by American Felt and Craft, who provided the felt and crinkle material. When AF&C reached out to me about providing felt for some of my designs, I knew it was meant to be… The next page I had planned to make was a camping one, and the gorgeous(…)
Our little blog is 1 year old this month! While I’ve been making websites since 1997 and blogging since 1998, it wasn’t until I had my little Jax that I decided to create a separate blog for all things crafty, creative and kid-friendly in our lives. It actually took a few months before I started(…)

Do you like the sweet ribbon I used on my ice cream parlor quiet book page? I think it was a perfect addition to the ice cream parlor awning. I have extra, so I am giving away two 37″ lengths of this cute ribbon to two lucky readers. The ribbon is 3/8″ wide, white with(…)

We will be reviewing the many iPad apps Jax has been trying out recently. The iPad is great for car rides and waiting in restaurants. I stick mostly to educational and pretend-play when choosing apps for him. We are giving away one of each of these iPad apps! See below for details! We have had(…)
The winner of my handmade mini Valentine quiet book is Jaclyn S.! All entries were placed in order (duplicate comments removed) and the number was chosen at random. I wish everyone could have won, but I definitely don’t have time to sew 26 of them! I’m stretched as it is watching Jax and working 30hrs(…)
