DIY Shabby Chic Easter Eggs

DIY Shabby Chic Easter Eggs

 I used to love decorating real Easter Eggs as a little girl. We would dip eggs in dye, add stickers…you know, the whole nine yards. But, I think I’m past the age of dipping eggs in dye and adding stickers to them. Plus, you can’t let real Easter Eggs set out in a basket in your living room! Earlier this month I was in Hobby Lobby and saw some paper mache eggs and thought to myself, “We could use some shabby chic Easter Eggs in the Purple Palace!” This weekend I completed my Shabby Chic Easter Egg vision, while revisiting one of my favorite childhood Easter memories.

Healthy Comfort Food

I’m afraid Mother Nature is playing a mean trick on us. Even though the season has officially changed to Spring, it still feels like Winter. Yuck.
Luckily, in today’s recipe segment, Danielle has whipped up a healthy version of some comfort food to help you get through these last few days of cold weather.

My Spring To-Do List

Spring To-Do List

Each season I always seem to have a list full of things that I need to do, or want to do. Don’t we all? Here are some of the things I plan on accomplishing this Spring. Some are much more glamorous than others, but unfortunately I have to do practical things every now and then too ðŸ™‚

Fabulous Finds: Spring Clothes

New Spring Clothes

My sister and I did something super fun this weekend…we switched our Fall/Winter closet over to Spring/Summer! Now, I know this probably doesn’t sound fun at all, but we actually enjoy it.

If you haven’t figured it out by now I like color. Bold, pastel, patterns…the more color the better! As much as I love my dark winter clothing and sweaters I’m sooo over wearing them! I need some more color in my life pronto…enter Spring/Summer clothes!

My IU Basketball Favorites

 I enjoy sports, it must be the former cheerleader in me. But, the only sport I have ever followed is Indiana University Men’s Basketball. I have been brainwashed by my dad about this team for as long as I can remember. However, when you live in Indiana that is to be expected. Basketball is tradition. As much as I love girly girl things I have been SO excited about sharing my love of IU basketball with you!  Let’s try and forget the fact that they didn’t make it to the big dance this year. That is a sore subject for IU fans. In the spirit of March Madness I thought it would be fun to reminisce about some of my IU basketball memories and favorites. If basketball isn’t your thing don’t worry…I’ll be back to crafts on Friday 🙂
