Taking the Plunge - Again

Hello, hi - me again - it's been awhile.  As you may have noticed (those who have stuck with us) we haven't really been posting regularly for the last month.  There are a bunch of reasons some mentioned here, but mostly feeling a little insecure about our content in comparison to other blogs - especially the ones that I love and admire and read daily.  I keep thinking that our little blog doesn't have as much to offer and that gets me down and makes me feel a bit uninspired.  But then I came across this great quote - on Pinterest, of course!  

 

 

 

  

So from here on we will go forward posting what we like and hope you will like too - without thinking too much about how it compares with the "big boys".  We're small and proud!  We've learned a lot over the last year and a half and have had a great time sharing recipes, tutorials and everything in between with anyone who stops by to read.

 

So here's our new plan!

 

 Hope to see you all next week!  Lots and lots to catch up on!!

 

xo!!

So Ready!

And I am Patricia, the partner in this exciting adventure!  Although Kendra and I both love crafting, there is a big difference that I think our followers will enjoy.  Kendra can take an old door, paint it, and make it into the most adorable coffee table or just pull together items from sales and create the most amazing decorations.   People walk into her home and say, “You made that with what?!”

On the other hand, I like the plan, the pattern, the final image in my mind before I start a project ~ probably the result of writing lesson plans for 26 years! 

It took a little time to get to this place, but I am so looking forward to “diving in”  to make our blog exciting, fun, and informative.

Taking the Plunge

First off let me introduce myself, I'm Kendra - mother of two little cuties, DIY'er, vintage lover - my ideal job would be a cross between American Pickers and Million Dollar Decorators, creative-thinker (at least I like to think so) and major procrastinator at least when it comes to things I think may be little over my head - like starting this blog. 

My Mom Patricia and I will be writing this blog together - she'll probably correct that to read my Mom and me - anyway we both enjoy creating things with our hands and have had a great time designing paper and pillows for our Etsy shops. Starting a blog is something we were both interested in doing and always talked a lot about all the wonderful things we would post - design projects, recipes, before and after photos you name it.  But every conversation ended the same way with me saying "It will be ready by the end of the week" now, almost 6 months later, here we (finally) are.  Hopefully this blog will chug along now that I actually got up the courage to let my words be seen by the whole world - or you follower number one!  So I'm hoping if you are reading this you will join us for the ride!
