DIY Super Simple Curtains.

For months now I have been dying to get new curtains in our living room, the old ones were just too dark and bulky. I want to allow what little sunshine we have the chance to peak into our home, so this morning I made some quick little curtains that will do the job.

Supplies needed:
sewing machine
pins
scissors
measuring tape
2 pieces of fabric that measure 36x32 inches (I used to different patterns because I didn't have enough of just one but I really like how they turned out!)

































Measure and fold approximately 2 inches at top so there is
enough space to fit your curtain rod through.
















Pin and sew!
















Hem other edges about 1/2 inch.




















I am so ready for spring!
Oh hey! Don't forget to check out the Melisa's super cute giveaway on The Prairie Hen's blog!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Valentine's Day Decor

Hello! I've been wanting to spruce up our little home in honor of Valentine's Day & today I got a chance to get started on it!
Just for fun I wanted to share a few photos of my progress with you all.



Love birds.








































Nothing too earth shattering, but festive nonetheless! <3
Have a beautiful weekend!

On To The Next One... Holiday Season!

Hello All! Hope everyone had a beautiful Thanksgiving! I sure did! We went up to New York to spend the weekend with Jake's sister Jen and her husband, Tom, along with their precious baby girl. Mia is six months old and is without a doubt the cutest little girl in the world! It was so nice to spend a little time with her and her awesome parents. My new and beautiful family is definitely what I am most thankful for this year. Move to Pittsburgh guys!

Meet Mia!

Dinner was incredible. Jen and her bff, Kimmy, outdid themselves this year. Everything was delicious!






Stuffing has always been my favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner.


Mia's Thanksgiving feast! Turkey, gravy and cranberry baby cereal!



We didn't have the traditional pumpkin pie for dessert ...
but chocolate covered strawberries and cannolis did just fine!

On our way back home we picked up a Christmas tree! Decorating for Christmas has always been a favorite of mine, and I am always very eager to get it started.

Our perfectly crooked tree!

Maybe I could have waited another week or so but I just couldn't help myself!
Happy Holidays!
