- I want to make one of these DIY a-frame tents.
- This is a smart use of fabric too.
- You can make these tissue paper lanterns. And you should, because they’re adorable.

I also write for Babble’s Family Style blog. Here’s what I’ve been sharing there…

Thanks for sharing. That cake bunting is cute as all get out! x
what a beautiful collection! and i now realize how drab my white paper lanterns looks, time to start cutting circles!
Thank you for sharing! I have only recently discovered your blog and I love it!!!!
Love the honor roll “What’s up with Mormons and design blogs?” very informative and insightful!
There’s a really cute free printable of mini-bunting here: http://weareteamawesome.blogspot.com/2010/08/teamprints-mini-bunting.html
I like the polka dots and deer in your picture, too.
I have two of Shawna’s wall decals and I love them. One in the dining room and one on our chalkboard door in the mudroom. I love them and they are super easy to install.

Like the honor roll concept! Reading through ‘em, one by one! Thanks
I LOVE our yellow front door. Now if only we could get the rest of the exterior of our house painted to match the loveliness of that color. The mint chocolate chip palate of our house was hideous when we moved in, and hideous still. PAINTING SOON!
Those paint chip postcards are so clever! Thanks for sharing them!
thanks for all these fun ideas! can always count on you for some morning inspiration… love the “joie de vivre” banner… I would like that up everyday. :)
Ha! I have been mystified by Mormons and design blogs, so that was interesting. I kind of made up my own theory–that if someone is a stay-at-home mom (which obviously, not all Mormon women are), then your main focus would be your home.
Interesting read. There may be a lot of, say, Catholics, who write design blogs, but maybe it’s not called out as much within the focus of the blog itself? Dunno.
So sweet! Almost looks too good to eat (almost!) Lovely blog x
Love the truck, not in the least because I have my own Lucie who looked just like that when she was a kindergartener!
Yeah, the Mormon thing is the open secret. Hahaha.
Right now the Church is trying to show people what Mormons are really like, and a big chunk of the women they exhibit are bloggers. Examples: http://mormon.org/me/1QX2 and http://mormon.org/me/2XRX
Then there’s the queen:

The reasons are simple. Women are told that the home is the most sacred place on earth, and what they’re doing there is the most important thing. ever. Blogging is a way to reinforce that.
I’ve had ice cream from that truck! So yummy.
Thanks for the yellow-door inspiration. I painted our front door today and I love it!
I love the Sweet Lucie’s truck, it’s so stinkin’ cute and their ice cream is super yummy.
Also, I made the paper lanterns for my pop-up shop a couple weeks ago and they are sooooo easy.
