How to Make a Fox and Cottage Night Light

I think everyone I know bought a set of those woodland creature plastic eggs from Target this year. I was tempted to buy two.

Sweet Chambray Sneakers Tutorial

Since I go through shoes hard and fast there is no reason to spend 50 bucks on a pair of name brand sneaks that are going to be hitting pavement so hard that they are worn out in a month or so. And when I saw these cheapies over at Wal-Mart for less than $6, I knew just what to do!

Tie Dye Dream Pillow

The Cat and the Canary No Sew Applique Pillow Tutorial

My sister and I are both undergoing some big changes in our home decor.
