Adding color and lots of little personalities and Adding color and lots of little personalities and faces to our weekend. Because love wins and death is conquered….so yes, this is for sure how we celebrate🎉 
Also, every time I cracked an egg this weekend, I squealed in the sound or noise that I thought the personality of the egg would sound 😂😂😂 obvi.
I would PICKle you as my Valentine over and over i I would PICKle you as my Valentine over and over if I could! 😂
Also, yes, this is clearly a @claussenpicklesofficial because duh, they are the best! ❤️

The alternate caption could also be “yup…..it’s a Valentine pickle. Because my kids are obsessed with vinegar soaked veggies. Just swipe for the Halloween pickle proof 🥒 “
For the record, I got approximately zero adulting For the record, I got approximately zero adulting things done while constructing this cardboard @encantomovie Casita of my daughters dreams. Except of course inserting many phrases in place of the “we don’t talk about Bruno” song…..ya know, “we don’t talk about dishes no no nooooo. We don’t talk about laundryyyyyy.” 🏠 🎨 💛 
Also, the minute the hot glue was dry, Esther picked up the Casita, hugged it and ran it to the living room where she played most of the afternoon. A moment of Mom win to warm my heart 😭❤️
“May you find the light that guides you home” “May you find the light that guides you home” 
One of my fave song + fave yearly progression that makes me allll happy and sappy. Merry Christmas 🎄 I hope you’re finding light this holiday season!
If I’ve said it once and I’ll say it 3 squllio If I’ve said it once and I’ll say it 3 squllion more times: I LOVE PAINNNTTTTT! Here’s the thing……paint is always, 100% paint-overable. If you paint something, step back, live with it for while but just doesn’t feel right…..simply paint over it. Like really that simple. 
I’ve done this a handful of times in our own home….bathrooms, bedrooms, hallways (like so many times in the hallways 😂)! 
Painting to me is a slight reflection of life: nothing is perfect, and even when mistakes or missteps feel overwhelming they are always worth fixing and usually fixable annnnnd it’s amazing how much a  small moment can bring big joy…..or in this case a big moment on a biiigggg wall 🎉🎨
I am doing my last restock of these little nutcrac I am doing my last restock of these little nutcracker buddies tonight at 7pm (central time)! So if you’ve had your eyes on them, especially after seeing them in @hgtvmagazine (gahhhhhhh, still can’t get over this), then be sure to find yourself in my shop tonight at 7pm central!
Even thought I had alllll the intentions of postin Even thought I had alllll the intentions of posting this sooner, I make no apologies because I don’t like living in the land of the “shoulddas”. Especially during this season of intentional slowing down and anticipating the arrival of Christmas. 
Download this coloring advent village and take a few min away to color each house and talk about the season and the way you can shine light! 
PS, download the file on my blog amongst the other holiday themed doodles coloring sheets…..AND we printed our village in gargantuan size from Staples….(their engineer print) and I am not one but mad about the fact that it will take up nearly half a wall! 😂 ❤️🎄
Tis the season for my crafting fingers to be full Tis the season for my crafting fingers to be full of hot glue burns and can honestly say it makes me happy. Like so thankful and happy! 
Okkayyy well maybe not the burns themselves but the fact that I’m over here, in my little studio space in Wisconsin crafting my heart out and you’re sending the love right back to me with all the support! Support for the doodles and painting and costumes and sewing and other colorful things that I’m eager to share! 
SO thankful. Like I’d really love to give you all a humongous big hug right now. 

And for all the online shoppers this weekend, use code YAYcreatives for 20% off everything in my shop through Monday night. Including these happy Colorful felt trees! (I meannnnn, look at their personality 😂😍)
