Still, heavily involved in farmhouse talk around our place-making lists, estimates, and other fun stuff. Trying to figure out if we are going to put our bid in or not. You have to put the bid in at the courthouse, in person! What a pain. Drive 5 hours just to hands someone a giant check. […]

Go have a ball!
In the last week or so I've seen a few of the fabric balls around and some kind readers have also spotted a few patterns and such. I thought it'd be nice to post them all here for you, in case you want to make one. I'll post a few tutorial-esque photos in a day […]
E.I.E.I.Ooooooh dear.
Well, we drove way out to the farm house that we have been interested in yesterday. Five looooooooong hours in a car to get there.This house is being sold by court order and about 5 people are bidding on it, so we aren't sure if we are gonna get in on the bidding or not. […]
“Will you still love me tomorrow?”
Just posting to say that I'm taking a day or two off from blogging. Hopefully, I'll have something crafty or real estate-y to share with you when I'm back on. 😎
Giddy-up
Well, that's about as "organized" as my closet fabric stash is gonna get. Mostly it is thrifted clothes and pillowcases. It rained all weekend, which normally would bum me out however, now rain means no pool noise! So, we had a quiet weekend at home exhaustively discussing our future:real estate, jobs, family stuff, and practicing […]
cork coasters
Super quick project: I got this pack of cork drink coasters at the dollar store awhile back. They have white flowered paper backing on them which I thought was strange, since they'll get wet and the paper will come off. I assume the paper is just decorative and the drink is supposed to sit on […]
this and that
Keely practicing her role as resident ghost for the future farm house. Thank you all for your rude neighbor sympathy, but renovation money would be much more appreciated. ha ha ha ha ha. I kid. I didn't think so many people had this noise problems, so it's a little nice to know that we aren't […]
She got it!
The lovely Katurah finally, finally got her package that I sent oh….about 3 months ago!!!The USPS is not a friend of mine. I forgot what I even put in it, until I read her sweet post! Then, I thought that I could have made an even better package now. I've learned how to sew many […]
“I’m gonna move out to the country and paint my mailbox blue”
The photo is just something pretty to look at. This is not a crafty post. It's too hot to sew. If you wanna look at something crafty, scroll down a bit. 😎 So this whole neighbor pool thing is really getting to us. We were trying to be o.k with it, thinking that it'll be […]
inspiration quest
Our library is seriously lacking in the crafting section, but I did get this small stack to sift through. Also, a few magazines. Yeah, so this is an illegal scan of a page from Blueprint. That magazine is not what I thought it was and they are really catering to a much more affluent population […]
