Chalkboard Candelabra
I'm excited to have friends over this summer for backyard BBQs– and center stage (or at least in the center of the table) will be chalkboard candelabra. This project brightens up any table– outdoors or indoors. And I look forward to changing the candelabra to tailor it to each event. Some ideas– the names of our guests, hand-drawn pictures, quotes or words. Since we're using chalkboard paint, the possibilities are limitless. Full Disclosure: My VERY kind and handy Dad helped me out with this. He did the drilling part. Supplies: A 2 x 6 piece of pine or fir (Actual… Read More

A Poem in Praise of Rabbits
In time for Easter! Image via The Graphics Fairy A Poem in Praise of Rabbits A bunny is a quiet pet, A bunny is the best thing yet, A bunny never makes a sound, A bunny's nice to have around.

A bunny, though, is never heard, He simply never says a word. A… Read More
