I love fonts ~ especially when they’re free!  During one of my first graphic design classes in college, my professor introduced us to the wonderful website dafont.com, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Believe or not many fonts are quite expensive. The complete te Trinite type face will run you around $3,840! If you ask […]

Similar to the lack of updates on my 365 project, I realized my crazy-busy life has kept me from posting almost anything since being engaged! It’s crazy to realize it’s been over 7 months already! I feel like doing a little trip down memory lane with everything wedding-related so far…. Almost all pics & comments […]

Are you trying to make the holidays a bit greener this year?  As you know, Monday, November 28th is Cyber Monday — the biggest online shopping day of the year — So, why not start the season off by making this a DIY day instead? The Nature Conservancy’s Green Gift Monday concept encourages us to: […]

I love receiving all types of special custom painting requests and was recently given quite a big challenge — a four-foot canvas of the Vegas Skyline done in a “painterly-style”… The giant blank canvas was a bit intimidating at first, but I admit once I found my rhythm it was quite enjoyable! After a few […]

The holidays are quickly approaching, and I’m thinking of making my first advent calendar this year for my fiance! Or, I might not be able to keep the idea a secret and perhaps if he wants to join in the effort, we can make it for both of us (I’ll do all the odd numbers […]

  • Heather E - Nice collection of Advent Calendars. I just wanted to point out that item #22 is NOT DIY. I bought one myself from Target. It is cute, and I have enjoyed it, but I think it was misleading of the original blogger to post a craft DIY and then use a Target picture.November 15, 2012 – 8:33 pmReplyCancel

    • Danielle Marie - My apologies for the wrong claim, but thanks for pointing this out 🙂 Also, see Natasa’s comment below.November 4, 2013 – 12:25 pmReplyCancel

  • Natasa - Thanks for featuring my blog!
    Heather E, I have taken that photo from another blog and have linked back to it. The inspiration for the DIY craft instructions has come from the photo and I never have claimed that the photo is the actual diy project and not a store bought item. It is just there for inspiration and illustration. 🙂October 31, 2013 – 11:28 amReplyCancel
