15 Creative Family Costumes

September 25, 2013 By Michelle Barneck Leave a Comment

It’s time to start thinking costumes and I love that my kids are still little enough that they don’t argue at the mention of family costumes. I think it is super fun to coordinate and went on a search for the best family costumes. There are so many creative families out there and I think you’re going to love what we stumbled upon!

Lions and Tigers and Bears…oh my

There are so many adorable ideas, how can you choose just one? I’m hoping I have a few more years of having my kids think family costumes are fun so we can squeeze in as many as possible.

Have you done/do you do family costumes? What is the best family costume you’ve seen?

10 Fun Pumpkin Ideas for Fall

September 4, 2013 By Michelle Barneck Leave a Comment

The other day I was searching for a pumpkin post in the archives when I discovered that I have a whole lot of posts that include pumpkins. This probably stems from my deeply embedded love for fall, but even I was surprised how many there were. So, I thought it would be fun to do a round up of my ten favorite pumpkin posts.

This is gonna be fun right?! Let’s get on with it…my top ten favorite pumpkin posts.

Pumpkin Caramel Apple

I mean it has an actual branch for a stick. What’s not to love?

Doily Pumpkin Treat Bag

The most adorable treat envelope ever.

Pumpkin Caramels

The easiest treat you will ever make! Two ingredients.

Pumpkin Wreath

I love how the white pumpkins have a totally different mood!

Paper Pumpkins

If you can fold paper in half, you can make these!

Houndstooth Pumpkin

Duct tape is a girls best friend.

Pumpkin Steamer

Starbucks knock off, like drinking fall.

Pumpkin Game

No sew cloth pumpkins for the littles to toss.

Pumpkin Pedestal Centerpiece

Made with dollar store supplies.

Pumpkin Spice Rice Krispie Treats

Like the originals with a little surprise.

You think that’s a lot of pumpkins? I had even more posts that didn’t make the list. I’m telling you, I love fall and I can’t wait for it to get here! The kids are back in school and it has even started cooling down just slightly. Can’t wait to hear the leaves crunching and head on down to the pumpkin patch!

Just wanted to pop in and wish you all a Happy 4th! We are so blessed to have the freedoms we do and so thankful to those who keep our country safe! God bless you all!

If you follow on instagram you already know about these fun letter my sis and I made last minute. I may just leave them up through the end of July. I think we have the best colors. Seriously, what’s better than red, white and blue?

Anyway, enjoy your parades, BBQs, and fireworks and we’ll be back with more fun projects soon! If you just can’t wait, here are a few fun patriotic projects from the past!

4th of July Decorations: Flag Canvas

June 20, 2013 By Michelle Barneck 30 Comments

Disclosure: I am a Cricut affiliate and received vinyl to use as I pleased. Here’s what I did with it.

Being in scouts I get to recite the Pledge of Allegiance once a week so when I was thinking of patriotic decor for the 4th my mind naturally gravitated towards it. I had a picture in my mind of what I wanted, to create the American flag out of the words of the pledge. I love how it turned out!

I designed the typography flag using Cricut Craft Room and cut it out of Cricut Vinyl using my Cricut Mini. I used transfer tape to place the vinyl on a canvas to create one of a kind 4th of July decor.
