Boo-Boo Buddy - Get Well Gift for Kids

Accidents happen. We all get hurt. It's the worse when it's one of the little ones though. Sending a heartfelt card is great, but kiddos (especially those too young to read) might not fully comprehend the gesture. Why not turn their unfortunate situation into one just a tad more tolerable with a little Boo-Boo Buddy to hug and some colorful flowers to brighten their sidetable. 

Football Friday - Fudgy Football Brownie Pops

Football season is the best season of all. Over the years, the Mr. has had quite the influence on this girl. We met in November while football was in full swing so I learned early on that our Sundays would be devoted to the pigskin. I wouldn't change a thing about it :) Monday Night Football was our first Eagles' game of the season so I made an extra special treat -- Fudgy Football Brownie Pops. 

You don't need any special tools or cake molds for these guys, just some patience and a steady hand.

DIY Pet Rocks - Chalkboard Style!

How flippin fun are those little guys? Ahhh. I sorta loved pet rocks as a kid... googly eyes and all. These are bit more grown up and oh so modern with their chalk art styling. You already know that I heart woodland creatures so I made little cartoony owls on this set but you could do whatever you like. Oh and did I mention these are super easy and virtually mess free??

Home Sweet Home | Personalized Printable

So, it's been a whole month since my last post. I hope you missed me <3 

My summer has been a whirlwind and I've stayed quite busy at the office.The Labor Day Weekend has been the perfect time to just fall back on the couch and relax with the Mr. and our furbabies. 

Home. Sweet. Home. Home sweet home, indeed! 

Sureee. I get it. You're like, "but Jess, my gorgeous family and home were not established in 2011 -- but thanks anyway." I made this print in keeping with the idea that you could and SHOULD personalize it for your own family. 

5 Simple & Fun Bridal Shower Activities

So it's been awhile since my bestie's Candy Confetti bridal shower (whoops!) but I'm finally ready to spill the rest of the deets! One of the things you either love or hate about showers are the kitschy activities. I for one, LOVE them. If you're on the other side of that camp, you can stop reading now. 

Some of the more popular/traditional bridal shower games are the toilet paper dress competition, gift bingo, and bridal trivia. I decided to go beyond the norm and planned a few less traditional options.
