Continuing the pandemic era sewing and craft projects, I upcycled bunny ears into a pair of bat ears. My blogging bestie Miranda from Spooky Little Halloween and I went on a Halloween cruise in 2019 and were given bunny ears in Roatan, Honduras. Weird, right? Me being the craft hoarder that I am, I took them […]
Holidays
Exploring Domaine Bousquet Wine & Food Pairing
In this edition of Supper Club Sips, we explored a lovely sparkling rose whilst celebrating Christmas during a pandemic in a backyard setting in the cold dead of winter. Odd as it all sounds, we really enjoyed ourselves. Wine that we sampled: Domaine Bousquet Sparkling Rose This beautiful and refreshing dry rose from Domaine Bousquet in […]
Our Virtual Holiday Card: 2020 Edition
Because I have no concept of time, nor do social norms apply this crazy year, I decorated for Halloween in September, put up the Christmas tree before Thanksgiving, and I finished designing our annual year-in-review card way before December. I hope you all have the jolliest of holidays this year and the warmest of wishes. […]
Halloween Cruise? Don’t Mind if I Boo! (Part 2: The Costumes)
While making marmalade last year with my costuming friend Tina and my blogging bestie Miranda from Spooky Little Halloween, we booked a Halloween cruise under the influence of a lot of alcohol (as one does). And then we convinced our other blogging bestie, Cheyenne from Sense & Serendipity to sell find a sitter for her kids and come along…and the rest is history! […]

Our Christmas Cards Have Gone Digital
As much as I loved making Christmas cards every year for our friends and family, it became a seasonal stressor (like we needed more things to do and worry about). We’d blow through printer cartridges, bark at each other whenever cards would get stuck or ink would bleed, spend days making picture prints, cutting, stuffing, […]
How to Make Your Very Own Fabulous Witch Hat
A guest blog post by Sarah Going out with girlfriends to Witches Night Out at Granny’s Korner in Tomball, Texas for a little pre-Halloween fun calls for a special witches hat! Inspired by the “best hat” contest, exceeding craftiness and my lack of funds, I decided to go online and find a tutorial for making a witch’s hat. I didn’t […]
A Review of Vinebox: 12 Nights of Wine Advent Calendar
Like most wine and beer lovers, last holiday season got me excited about all the new Advent calendars. For those unfamiliar, Advent calendars count the Advent days leading up to Christmas, and some families enjoy chocolates, toys, or riddles for each of the 24 days in theirs. In my house, wine is king. [This is […]
Champagne Cork Cap Magnets (DIY)
I collect wine corks, as well as the cute Muselet cage caps from Champagne, Prosecco, Cava, and really any sparkling wine. While I have many, many uses for corks (read my Cork Craft Round-Up here), I never really knew what to do with the caps until I found a listing for magnets on Etsy. I […]
A Gnarly Dudes Lebowski Halloween
If you think that me being asked to review a wine and wear a costume is weird, you really don’t know me. Or maybe you do! Celebrating Halloween and The Big Lebowski‘s 20th anniversary with a lovely Australian red wine is exactly my kind of weird. So here’s my review of Two Hands Wines Gnarly […]
