Who doesn’t love a nice dessert pizza?! This one combines all of the wonderful flavors of fall for a tasty treat and a beautiful presentation. Remember this little guy from last Halloween? This recipe is another great way to use that delicious caramel from Gygi’s.

Halloween Canvas Wall Hanging
In a few days, I’ll be posting about an amazing blogger’s night out that took place at Gardner Village a few weeks ago. One of my favorite stores at the village (aren’t they all?) is Pine Needles where you can find more fun fabric then you’ll know how to handle. I went ahead and busted [...]
View PostWood Connection Guest Post and Giveaway!
THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED–CONGRATS TO REBECCA OUR LUCKY WINNER!! Have you been to the wood connection lately? It is overflowing with all things Fall/Halloween…..so I know it feels a bit early, but I couldn’t help but get into the spirit of the holiday.

Beautiful, Edible, Inexpensive Teacher Gift-$1.35!
Here is a great little “thank-you” that won’t break the bank. Unless the recipient is allergic or a hater (how could you be?), it’s sure to be a winner. Fresh, sweet, and gorgeous red ripe strawberries. Paid about $1.25 for a 1 lb package and then used my silhouette to print and cut 6 labels [...]
Same shape, new project
When you’ve spent the time designing your own shape for use with your silhouette, it’s nice to use it more than one way. Here’s a great example of applying that principle using the FREE shape file (subscribe to the right if you want it!) from last week’s Wooden Chalkboard Plant Markers. I love these turquoise [...]
Wooden Chalkboard Plant Markers
I was at Michael’s craft store the other day and saw a set of these of rectangular plant markers by Martha Stewart and thought they looked pretty fun and functional. When I took them to check out, they rang up $12.99…yikes!, they were in the wrong bin and I wasn’t about to pay that price [...]
Fun Easter Idea/Tradition – Magic Jelly Bean Seeds
I found this idea right AFTER Easter last year…of course! So I’ve waited a whole year to do it and I can’t wait to see the expression on my 3 (almost 4!) year old’s face when she sees the magical transformation of these jelly beans. If you own a silhouette, this is literally a 5 [...]
St. Patrick’s Day Treat and Printable – Leprechaun Munch
I have to say, this treat turned out so tasty. It was a total experiment and we loved the result–the combination of mint and chocolate with a little salty crunch was just right. Pretty much all of our supplies came from one of our favorite local kitchen stores, Orson Gygi. You can order supplies from [...]
Large Scale Pottery Barn Inspired Mirror
Remember this post? Here is what the finished product looks like. It was a bit of a process to make but I love the finished product. $15 dollars in mirrors (8 1/2 x 11) from the dollar store and and another $45 or so in materials (molding, plywood backing, glue, paint, hanging materials etc.). [...]
Meet Carameled Frapplestein
He’s a pretty dapper not-so-scary kind of dude. We like carameled apples around here, but they taste excessively sweet to me when fully drenched in caramel. So this was a good compromise. Here’s how we made him: Hair: Caramel and miniature chocolate chips. Use good caramel like the one sold here (great tips for carameled [...]
