DIY Puppy Potty Training Bell
With getting a new puppy, my FIRST puppy, actually, there was a lot of prep. We gave a lot of Winston’s things to my vet as donations, so I had to purchase new stuff for Pixel – a few things I’d given away but mostly stuff I’d never had before, specific to a very small puppy. I decided that bell training would be great (it’s basically a bell the puppy is trained to ring to go do her business outside). I had seen many of them on Pinterest and thought it was a terrific idea, but none that I really liked. So I decided it couldn’t be THAT hard to make one myself.

With my upcoming trip to Disneyland, I started pinning projects to a new #DisneySide board months ago when my friends & I finally settled on a date. One of the crafts I came across while scouring Pinterest for Disney or Disneyland related crafts that were more adult was not something I could use for our trip, but something I loved the idea of: a Hitchhiking Ghosts Mason Jar Tutorial.

There are a lot of trends in crafts right now, but one I have just not jumped on board with is the CHALKBOARD THE EVERYTHING trend. It’s a look I just don’t find appealing, most of the time. I like things to look more precise, more measured, and while I have nice handwriting, I can’t draw for shit.

I think being able to play with these liquid chalk markers had taught me the limitations and how I can be happy with a chalkboard look project!

Continuing in my series about the Rubber Ducky Baby Sprinkle I threw in April for my friend Jennie, today we’ll talk about the food. I pretty much wiggled my way out of this one, except for one major except. Also, I’m not responsible that people did not read the back of the invite that explicitly said it was a potluck because the inside of the invite ALSO said “Bring a dish”. #notmyfault

Continuing in my series about the Rubber Ducky Baby Sprinkle I threw in April for my friend Jennie, today we’ll talk about the clothing gifts I made for baby Colin & his big sister Joy. Of course, putting together this whole shindig wasn’t enough for my crazy ass. I had to go overboard and test the waters of heat transfer vinyl by way of onesies and t-shirts for the kiddos.

Continuing in my series about the Rubber Ducky Baby Sprinkle I threw in April for my friend Jennie, today we’ll talk about the favors. My first idea was dashed once the main items showed up, so I had to do some brainstorming with Lorenza for a new idea. It turned out SO much better!
