Modern Fabric Studio
I love that we have a window in our stairway, but I don’t know what it is about windows and stairs-the windows always look too short. So I decided to take the old phrase “fake it till you make it” and put it to use-well maybe just the fake it part….but I really like the [...]
To put it simply: The reason or reasons one has for acting or behaving in a particular way. The general desire or willingness of someone to do something. What exactly motivates you or keeps you motivated? For me it tends to vary-which I’ve found really works for me(probably part of my self-diagnosed ADD and inability [...]
You ever have one of those days where no matter what you do or what you put in it to try to “pretty it up”….you’re just having a bad hair day. Well my blog and lackluster website were having a REALLY BAD HAIR DAY! And sadly I wasn’t doing much about it-kinda ignoring it actually [...]
So instead of doing WIWW, I’m going to switch it up and show you a mid-week DIY I did today. Does anyone else start projects without having a plan? Yeah that’s basically what I always do. So last night I got an idea that I wanted to switch things around a bit when Justin was [...]
Then head on over to Nicole at The Lovely Poppy’s blog and enter her 3000 Fan Giveaway! There are some fabulous items and services you can win-one of them being a pretty cool chevron throw pillow cover(wink, wink)
I saw these on Pinterest the other day and was convinced I would make them for breakfast today-well I made them-they turned out pretty good(had to sub raspberries because I couldn’t find organic strawberries. They were actually pretty easy to make too and E was excited because he thought he was eating a cookie for breakfast. P [...]
Not even sure if that’s a phrase-think I just made it up, but it pretty much sums up what we were doing for dinners this past week. If you know me, you know that pre-planning is not my strong suit…hence making crock pot meals alittle difficult since I tend to forget to get things ready [...]
I have a sick little guy home with me today so after placing my fabric orders and answering this mornings emails, I was twiddling my thumbs on what to do while he relaxed on the couch. Sewing was out of the question since he would freak out if I was not within seeing/hearing distance and [...]
And I feel a bit guilty that I just took down our Christmas decorations today-well the trees been down for awhile, but everything else was still up. To make up for it I decided to make a Valentine’s decoration-I really never do valentine’s day decorations-don’t know why it’s just not something I’ve done. Anyways here [...]
So I really thought I took more pics this week, but I guess not-or I just forgot-which could be the case. Dress: Target Boots: Aldo Dress: Target Boots: Boston Store
I’m a day late on this post but with good reason…I’m been trying to get back into the swing of things after a very fun-filled weekend. E has a little group of buddies and all of the other boys have birthdays a week or two apart in February-E’s is in March. Well we [...]
s you can see this site is undergoing a bit of a transformation…..or actually QUITE a BIG one! I am beyond excited about this and have been working with an amazing designer, but I’ve been a bit indecisive so we’re still making some tweaks. I promise things will start to look better [...]
Ok so kind of a poor showing for my first time linking up with Lindsey at The Pleated Poppy…but hey it’s a start…. This was Monday when I was off to a meeting(which turned out great by the way and I’ll have news about that soon) Dress: Target, Leggings: Target, Boots: Aldo, Necklace: Can’t Remember [...]
These samples came in the mail today and I can’t stop staring at them-bad for productivity-good for the soul
I’ve fallen into the trap that many of us do. I work from home, somedays after I take the kids to the sitter, some days after my husband comes home, but still pretty much working from home. I pretty much am living in “comfy” pants and shirts-yeah I’ve done it-I’ve gotten way too comfortable-or to [...]
UPDATE SUNDAY! I think this might make a bit more sense.br /br /I’ve been sewing a lot today which is great because I love sewing and I’m finally getting caught up from being out sick the past few days. Sewing gives me time to think about things-my day, my goals, lots of things…well today I [...]
So I’ve missed about 3 days of sewing this week-due to this sickness-whatever it is achy, chills, fever, soar throat, headache thing I have(pretty much sure it’s strep). Side note on that: learn from me-apparently the rapid strep test doesn’t work until about 36 hours until you actually have symptoms-silly me I went right away [...]
What do you crave when you’re under the weather? Nothing, greasy food, mom’s homemade soup? Nope not me-I have expensive “sick person” taste. I want the food from the great restaurants that are no where near my house and don’t deliver, but there’s always the pizza place down the street that has gourmet style pizza [...]
So I haven’t been posting too many projects on here lately mostly because I didn’t have any camera except the one on my phone and as much as I wanted it to take great photos-it just didn’t. I really realized this when I wanted to sponsor a certain blog and was told that I needed [...]

We tried to make this holiday as homemade as possibly and succeeded for the most part although I did get sucked into a few sales but I’d like to share a few handmade gifts some by me and some we bought made by others….br /br /By me…br /This year our budget was tight-I mean TIGHT [...]
So everything came together for Saturday and our little girl had a great 1st birthday. The theme was colors of the rainbow and after about a 10 minute discussion between me and my husband-I can say we’ve figured out what color indigo is-crazy huh he works at a paint store and I have an interior [...]
