My littles and I spent a couple hours yesterday making Valentine's boxes for some friends, it's such a fun activity to do with my 8 little hands. They helped stamp bags and tape them up with washi tape while I filled them...we are pretty good assembly line worker bees! We thought since we love making (and eating) chocolate fondue so much that maybe they would too! And so … [Read more...]

These Pillowbox Surprises are super easy to put together and are really fun for your recipients to open.

Breakfast in Bed: Housewarming/Hostess Gift Idea
My littlest sister and her husband spent the beginning of this summer driving across the country to start a graduate program out east (stopping in Chicago for a few days along the way, yay!) They moved all their belongings from Washington state all the way to New York without having a clue as to where they'd actually be living. A few weeks ago I talked to them and they … [Read more...]
