Apparently, there are people in this world who hate candy corn. Until recently, I had no idea how polarizing these defenseless little candies could be. But apparently, they’re up there with black olives, raisins and water chestnuts (all of which I love) when it comes to Foods You Love or Hate. Well…I love them. I …
Well, ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for my quarterly food craft! I’m not crafty very often, but when I am…I like to use candy as my medium of choice. I mean, I can’t feel guilty about eating 32,000 candy corns before the second week of September has even started if it’s for a CRAFT, right?! …
I don’t know why (really, I don’t…) but I seem to do a better job of crafting with food than cooking with it. My M&M Christmas Trees and Berry Centerpiece are examples of my random food crafting. And today, I’m going to keep this trend moving forward with a Candy Heart Wreath. Unlike most attempted …
The 4th of July is right around the corner and I have a new glue gun, so I thought I’d combine the two and get my craft on. A couple of months ago, I bought a stash of red, white, and blue buttons from Michaels. I’ve had these tucked away, waiting until I had enough time to …
I love candy hearts. Mostly, eating them. But it seems I’ve also made a bunch of fun DIY candy heart craft projects, as evidenced here, here, and here (geez…Necco needs to give me a job, y’all!). They’re just so fun and easy to use, and basically all you have to do is glue them to something …

This year, though, …
In anticipation of Valentine’s day I have gathered some simple Valentine’s day wreaths for you to create. Making wreaths can be a bit time consuming, but these particular ones are very simple to make. You can use a variety of media to create your wreath including conversation candy hearts, cupcake liners, ribbon, and even tissue …
Happy Halloween, y’all! This is such a great time of year, and I *so* love all the fun that comes with Halloween prep! I created these fun printable Halloween planner stickers because I know how much fun it is to dress up my own planner this time of year…and I know I’m not the only …
YAY for Halloween, right?! In our house, October is when the holiday madness (and fun) begins. And we kick it all off with Halloween. I created this Halloween countdown printable as a fun way for the whole family to get excited about the spookiest day of the year. Halloween Countdown Printable To use, print out …
Halloween. Is. Almost. Here. I feel like Halloween is the gateway to Christmas, and for that, I love it. But I also love it because my kids love it. Before I had kids, I wasn’t super excited about Halloween – we didn’t get trick-or-treaters where we lived at the time, and it just seemed like …
