So, this summer I've decided to slow down and just enjoy my boys more :) But there are still several things that I've got in the works to share on the blog here and have been so excited about this one today! I'm joining several other blogs to offer another sweet DISNEYLAND VACATION! 

Disneyland is kinda the place that comes to mind at the top of the list when any family thinks about where to go on vacation it seems, eh? It's just one of those places that you kinda want to cross off your life list no matter what. And, wow, to be able to win it instead of have to save up forever- I love the idea of being part of that prize for someone :)

Fast and Easy Gifts with Paper Pumpkin {and a giveaway!}

Are there certain things that you just pretty much always seem to be inspired by? Maybe those are kinda what we call our "style," I guess :) Like I always seem to draw towards things that are rustic, bohemian, bright or bold colors. Or stamp projects! I'm taken with the look of paper crafts that have been created with stamps involved. I haven't spent much time at all stamping myself over the years for some strange reason, though. Bummer- I wish I was a much better stamper!

I recently got connected with Paper Pumpkin, a division of Stampin' Up, and felt like they really spoke to my "style." Paper Pumpkin is a monthly subscription service- they send a fun box full of everything you need to sit and create a great paper craft project or homemade card set, really just to have an easy dose of creativity. For the next couple of months, I'll be sharing how you can take your Paper Pumpkin box and quickly create a small gift! Plus, today I get to giveaway a box to one of you!

Spring Welcome Sign Giveaway

Last time I posted a Spring project, it was pretty warm and clear around here. And now that I'm ready to share another (plus a giveaway!), it's of course snowing.

Painting bright pink and standing in three inches of slushy snow to take a a picture of your Spring Welcome sign= welcome to Idaho! Ha ha- gotta love it. :) It might be a bit early to expect that the snow won't still fall, but it's not too early at all to be creating for Spring!

I love these Welcome Sign kits that Wood Creations of Idaho Falls sells and today I get to give one away! Each season/ holiday they offer a new set of four pieces that hang from this one board....

It's fun to see what each new season's hangers will be- they are always really cute and full of detail!

Cozy Roadster Giveaway (Cutest Push Vehicle Ever!)

Don't you just love that mini tug in your heart when you see something super cute?! I do! It makes me want to share it with everyone!

So when I saw this opportunity to join a fun giveaway for this adorable Little Tikes 2-in-1 Cozy Roadster, I was excited! Now that little pang in my heart is just relative to the fact that my little guys are too big for it themselves!

Ya, this bike ride picture from not too long ago? Cooper's bike is seriously small and out of commission in plenty of others ways too, and poor little Ry could easily walk faster than those teeny wheels of his! I'm thinking their Easter baskets this year might need to be bike sized :)

But for anyone who had smaller littles, this giveaway is perfect and so cute! Can't wait to be congratulating one of you! Good Luck!

• Real working horn
• Quiet tires are durable for outdoor surfaces and gentle for indoor floors

Wood Creations of Idaho Falls Giveaway!

Last month kinda got skipped and I'm glad to be back in the swing of sharing a Wood Creations giveaway with you! I LOVE their Valentines collection- had a hard time picking this month! I decided on this super door hanging decor above and made it my own, as usual ;) 

(This was my second favorite!)

Simple Boredom Buster for Kids & Dollar Tree Value Seekers Club $100 Giveaway

This post has been sponsored by Dollar Tree. All opinions will always be 100% mine.

You already know that we love Dollar Tree! It’s literally the boys’ favorite place to go in town and works awesome as a reward for them.  The most productive cleaning days around here seem to have that Dollar Tree light at the end of the tunnel! :)

Ok, ok, it’s true… it’s a reward for me too. Dollar Tree gets my creative wheels turning somehow. The Dollar Tree Value Seekers Club can help with that… each month they send an email with a whole bunch of ideas using items from Dollar Tree.

All of the sudden, when we walk into the store, I no longer see candy, glow sticks, tape and glassware. No, no, no- instead I’m seeing DIY home décor, tips and tricks that turn me into SuperMom, and boredom busters galore. For a moment at least, I feel a little cooler than I really am!

Christmas Wish List Giveaway!

I've been so excited for today to get here, for this giveaway blog hop!

I've been having far too much fun getting ready for it!

You already know I LOVE gifting, so being able to give one of YOU some of my  favorite  things is like a little bit of bliss :) It's possible I went a titch overboard... nah, of  course not ;) For this giveaway, I'm joining a great new group of bloggers and each of them did the same thing too- gathered items from their own Christmas wish list to send to one lucky winner, hopefully making their holiday a little happier! Every blogger is hosting a giveaway on their site, for their basket. :)

Wood Creations of Idaho Falls Christmas Sneak Peak

Let the Christmas decorating and crafting begin! Or rather, get into full swing... since it's pretty much too hard to totally wait until after Thanksgiving and we've actually already started ;) Today I'm sharing some of the fun Christmas kits on the shelves at Wood Creations of Idaho Falls. Not giving one away just yet... and I'll tell why in a sec... (you won't be disappointed) ;)

These two kits above were some of my very favorites- isn't that rusty bell neat?!

Wood Creations of Idaho Falls Thanksgiving Giveaway

Happy November All! Halloween sure comes and goes in a hurry, eh? November is here! I'm so excited to be working with Wood Creations of Idaho Falls again to giveaway once of their popular Thanksgiving wood kits! They have so many great kits for this month...

Shabby Flower Headband and Giveaway

Recently, I was sent a fat quarter of fabric and a few segments of ribbon as part of a new monthly Fat Quarter Challenge. Jesse's site is brand new and I wanted to be part of helping spread the word. I always really enjoy exchanges and swaps and such, so I thought this would be fun too.

With my pieces, I decided to make a shabby flower headband. I'd recently seen a flower that I really liked and wanted to try and replicate. I love that this is flat- for some reason I just feel kinda weird when my hair stuff sticks off my head too far. I know, I'm goofy. :)

Wood Creations of Idaho Falls 'BOO' and Giveaway!

I received a wood kit from Wood Creations of Idaho Falls in exchange for this post.

All opinions are 100% mine (and I LOVE this store!)

So, there you have it... I love Wood Creations! They opened an Idaho Falls store this past summer just off the corner of Lincoln and Hitt Road, not far from Majestic Auto Body. And every time I drove by, I wanted to stop in. It wasn't until the last couple of months that I finally got in and I was smitten immediately! What an awesome place! I love all the amazing creativity inside Wood Creations and am so excited such a fun store is now right here in Idaho Falls! I'm so excited to get to work with them to bring good deals and giveaways to YOU! No matter what your style of decor, Wood Creations has something that you will love in your home! I could wander around the cute store and just gawk- just look at a few of their fun Halloween kits:
