After living with the Yo Gabba Gabba Mantle for almost a month it was time to up my game. I was lucky enough to be picked for an American Crafts glitter campaign and tons of glittery goodness arrived at my doorstep. This is what I did with that glittery goodness. The paper bunting was so simple to make. The glitter paper came in 12x12 sheets, like your typical scrapbook paper. I cut it in half (two 6x12 inch strips). I then cut each strip into three parts (each 4 inches). This left ...

Spruced Up Living Room & New Arrangement
Call it spring fever, or extreme nesting or in this case---just being me, but I had the urge to change things up. It isn't always about one being better than the other, but just needing something new. Kind of like a hair cut. Sometimes you just need a change.

If you aren't familiar with my digs, check out our home tour to see the old layout/color scheme. Our living room is ...
