isn't it so cool?
(it's not chalk…i just had it sitting by our chalkboard and chalk…)

stephanie has made many beautiful pieces.
she has great prices too.

she has art made for family and friends.
pieces made for weddings or for love.

and pieces like mine of words….verses….quotes…children's names and birthdates. 

the possibilities are endless!

what would you have her create for you?
what would it say?

go and tell stephanie all about it.

Erin - OH MY GOODNESS! I have just realized, about one minute ago, that my life can not continue without this book!!!

Stephanie@Geezees - it was a pleasure working with you Meg!

Julie M ~ The Little Red Shop - That is one of my favorite Bible verses! How sweet! I’m visiting via Farmgirl Paints. I hope you have a fantabulous weekend!
: )
Julie M.

Melanie - I love her stuff!

Nicole - this is so neat! what size is your canvas?

Kate @ Songs Kate Sang - Oh, how great! Yay for happy mail!

j - this is definitely happy mail.
I need to get my favorite verse put on something. (Galatians 2:20)

citymouse - Awesome verse. I could use a reminder like this around my house.

tasha roe - super rad!
i would have her list our “house rules”
do the right thing
love one another
hug and make up
kisses make it all better
wear the fun shoes
be happy
smile. its contagious

Lora - Perfect! Now I’m off to look at her stuff……….

Deanna - I must have one! 🙂

Jen - Oh I LOVE this!!

alamama - love it too! you are blessed!

pam - I LOVE that scripture…it’s posted in front of m computer and I like the style of the piece….must go check her site out.

Katherine @ Grass Stains - Sooooo beautiful! It reminds me of the Red Letter Words shop on etsy. I’m a huge fan! I love how it fits you so perfectly. 🙂

Sugar Mama - Just in time! I’m making my list of Christmas gifts to buy for family & friends and this just might be an awesome idea!

Becky @ Farmgirl Paints - Perfect gift just for you. I love all things black, white and with words. Those just happen to be THE perfect words:)

Julie - Yep. Love it! Now over to check out Stephanie’s work. 🙂

Stephanie@Geezees - Hi Meg ! So glad you like your canvas – it was a pleasure to make it for you! Big Fan!!
xoxo
Stephanie
Geezees

Regina - wow ~ i LOVE this too!

Holly - very cool!

widge - So cool!!!

vashti - I do love it!

PaisleyJade - Wow – I LOVE IT!!

Dana@Bungalow'56 - Megan,
Very edgy. It will pop in your home around all the colour. I love this verse, and as a result, the name of your blog . When I first saw your name on a blogroll, I of course thought it was the flippant “whatever” so commonly used these days. I love how you’ve changed the meaning of that word for me now whenever I hear it.
Dana

leslie - i dig 🙂

my happy place

while my sister was visiting me we headed out to my happy place.
is it weird that my happy place is someone else's house?
hopefully not.

carolyn's house is just happy.
even waffle is happy there.

he got to swim.
he got to play with max.
he was SO HAPPY.

IMG_7226
she likes sunscreen.
ha.

a fish bit me.
and i was done.
enough water for me.

i love it out there.
love love love.

**************************************************************************************************************************

pillow winner announced tonight.

or in the morning.

we'll see.

🙂
 

 

Miho - She is beautiful! I’ve been chiekcng every day to see if you’ve posted anything and this is so worth the wait. Jacob and Callie’s wedding is next weekend and we will be missing your special touch. Little Ms. June should have some beautiful pics during her life.

ymcmb hats - I really wish I hadn’t seen this as I really want one now!

Courtney Walsh - I laughed when you said the fish bit you and you were done in the water because the same thing happened to me when I was visiting my sister in Georgia! lol
I am not much of a fish person!

Carrie - So apparently your blog now falls under what my work considers a “social networking site” and it’s blocked… Just how do they expect me to get through my day?! 🙂

Becky @ Farmgirl Paints - I thought your happy place was Pizza Hut:) Looks like so much fun.

Melanie - Looks like fun!

amy d - what??? waffle likes something better than ME??? lol! hopefully he wasn’t writing down directions or he may just take his own road trip to carolyn’s!

Jen - It’s so cool how your sister’s daughter looks exactly like her and Talby looks just like you!

Gemma - Fun in the sun…perfect!!
Gemma X

linda@LimeintheCoconut - Happy time indeed! Perfect summer stuff. Well except for the toad. I wouldn’t want to hold the toad. Nope.

mel - What a fun day! It is totally okay to have your happy place be someone else’s house! (Target is my happy place…ha!)

shelly @familyblt - When I was a kid, we had frogs in our pool. I like those little guys–kinda like toads! Looks like fun!

Erin Leigh - I wanna turn with the toad. so fun.

Traci - As long as you have a happy place Meg…that’s all that matters. Looks like a fun day…your sis hasn’t aged a year since the last time I can remember seeing her (at least 15 years ago)…maybe I should try more sunscreen:)

AshleyAnn - The frog pictures ruined it for me. Not a happy place at all…I hate frogs…just the sight of those pictures make me cringe.
Reminded me of when you used to have that frog picture on your blog banner. I had a difficult time reading your blog those days. Thanks for taking that down 🙂

Flower Patch Farmgirl - What a fun honor to have your home be someone else’s happy place. I’ll bet she loves it!

Lisa - Your daughter looks like your sister! I can see why that is your happy place. waffle is looking as fetching as usual.
What a fish bit you??? Weird.

sarah - If it’s weird, then I’m weird, cause my happy place if I were closer would be your house and Carolyn’s house 😉
LOVE the toad pictures.

Donna - I LOVE the frog pictures, esp the first one! And Waffle is the cutest!

betsy - Tons of fun!
Was Waffle in a doggy coma when you got home? Whenever my Minnie plays that hard, she’s so exhausted, she can hardly walk up the stairs to get to bed.

Jaime A. - Is it weird to admit that I think I have a dog-crush on Waffle?! He is just sooo darn cute. I just want to squeeze him!
Looks like it was a fun day!

Juli - Oh, now this is interesting. I’d say your house is my dream home. We live in a 1932 ‘charmer’ but it is a plain jane colonial. When I play with my house, I pretend it’s yours.
Soooo, if your happy place is someone else’s house, is it because you prefer her home over yours in some way location, etc…) or is it because of your friend, herself?

Micah - Are you kidding?!?! That peanut butter baby came back and won??? NO WAY!!! I can’t believe it! She did something serious to come back from that far behind. Bummer. Your picture was so awesome too. I’m bummed for you. Enjoy your happy place.

dear diary,

this post is going to ramble on and on…with many links.
you have been warned.

i am feeling quite talkative today.
let's start with this:
1. Francesca's

it's my new favorite store.
they had THE BEST jewelry.
my friend kim took me there after she read about it on PW.
i loved it.

2. i saw that there is a 50% off gift certificates sale at MyPublisher now through mother's day.
that is a great deal!
i think i will buy myself some gift certificates.  :)

3.  i received a book in the mail yesterday.
it was sent to me from the publisher…

IMG_9494
by request of maxwell gillingham-ryan.
????
cool.
IT IS AN AWESOME BOOK!

IMG_9498
 
i love it.
it is kind of like a super beautiful stylish ikea catalog.
is that insulting?
i hope not.
the point is small spaces….kind of like ikea.
the book is full of unique artsy rooms.
i am thrilled to own it.
it comes out May 11.  

4. we are moving right along on the dining room.  
 
the wallpaper is all gone and we will begin painting today.
IMG_8859
IMG_8854
IMG_9499

5. i am a guest blogger today.
and because i am a total ding dong…it's the same post.
i was asked to do it by two people on the same day.
and somewhere over the course of the week i made them into the same person.
(melissa and erin ARE very similar names….right?)
so i only wrote one post.
duh.
they are both great sites….very different sites.
but both have the same post today.  
my fault.
but go read them anyway!

320 * Sycamore and today's mama

Kimberlee J. - Maybe I should’ve purchased that watch…

Leigh - I am a HUGE Francesca’s fan! I don’t go very often because dangerous things happen with my wallet.

Courtney Walsh - Oooh, the dining room will be so fun! Can’t wait to see it when you’re done! 🙂

Bringing Pretty Back - Just pourd my coffee and I am sitting here sipping and reading your blog while the family is sleeping… heavenly way to start my day.

Musings Of A Gem - Hope you had a nice mothers day : ) I read 302 sycamore too 😀 Great blog!
Gemma X http://musings-of-a-gem.blogspot.com/

Christina - You are so funny…I call myself a ding dong, too. Like the old-school cakes. Soft and spongy on the outside, full of fluff on the inside. haha That refers to me, not you. 🙂 I think you are awesome. I think Ding Dongs are pretty cool too. haha
Why am I leaving this comment, I’m not sure. I hope it is not offensive.
And your dining room project is totally amazing…when you are done with that, feel free to come here, fix up our house and take pictures of my kids. 🙂

DreamGirlLisa - I can’t wait to see the finished dining room!! Nice post(s) about mothers, you inspire as always, thanks!!

meaghan - ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh nnnnnnnooooooooooo! you added word verification!!! 😉

meaghan - you. are. awesome.

nichole shinners - Ok, please tell me what color that is on your walls.. it is incredible!

Melanie - I am heading over to Melissa’s right now!

Kate @ Songs Kate Sang - Awesome guest post! Great words. Thank you, Meg and Happy Mother’s Day!

Dana@Bungalow'56 - I am always so pleased to find a new post. I wish you all the best this Mother’s Day Weekend. I was thinking about your pillows today, and your photography, and your lovely writing voice. You have been given many talents. Thank you for sharing them with us. I for one am very appreciative.
Dana

sarah - I went and read the post.
It’s perfect. So perfect that it is in fact ok that it’s posted for two separate blogs.
You put into words everything I feel that I can’t express as well as you.
Happy early Mother’s Day Megan!

julia - I made a book on MyPublisher and love them…well, not the price but the quality is amazing.

Leigh - meg, that was beautiful!
Leigh

Julie - As a renter, Apartment Therapy has been a great place for me to visit! I love it! and I love that now there’s a book!

Kevyn - Hi Meg…I just stumbled upon your site this week. First off- I love your blog and all it entails…your home is so dreamy and you display a very realistic- yet FUN looking family. I have a question. Do you take custom orders for pillows…?
I am also a photographer and love what I do. Thanks for sharing your talents with the world.
Kevyn
kevynlynnphotography@yahoo.com

Lori - I went to find Francesca’s after reading PW too. Loved it!
And great Mother’s Day post…yes, good enough to be in two places at one time! 🙂 Have a good day on Sunday!

Liz - Your guest blog post is AMAZING! Thank you! I really needed something like that! Happy Mother’s Day!

Jill - Thanks for the guest blogs. It couldn’t have come at a better time. I needed some mama inspiration to keep me going with these two boys of mine! Thank you.
On another note, we made your stuffed shells the other night and loved them. Keep sharing recipes that you use to feed that big family of yours. I’m going to need them with another boy on the way!

Becky @ Farmgirl Paints - That is quite an honor! Now I’m off to check out all your links. Happy Mother’s day Meg:)

melissa*320 sycamore - I wish your guest post had been on 100 blogs today, because it’s something every mom needs to hear. Thank you again, Meg! Good luck with the dining room~can’t wait to see. Happy Mother’s Day~

Rachel / cREaTe - love that you merged 2 people [hilarious]. 🙂 but loved your mother’s day guest-post EVEN MORE. made me cry. so well written, so many WONDERFUL points. and the photos speak volumes to the lives your children are leading [as always]. such an awesome post – glad it can be found in TWO places in the internet world. 😉

Shar - The guest posts were so awesome. I got tears in my eyes just from the emotion. Enjoy those kids because it goes by way too fast. Now, I am a grandmother and it is going by way too fast. Happy Mother’s Day to someone who appears to be a #1 Mom!

Michelle - Can’t wait to see the dinning room. I showed my hubby the pic of the pipe from your post earlier this week. . . he told me this morning he woke up in a cold sweat last night dreaming about finding the same pipe in our house. ha! Totally different subject. . . but every time I see the commercials for the McGruger movie I think of you. . . . wonder if it will be as funny?

Queen Bee - Oh Meg, THANK YOU for the MyPublisher link!!! I get emails from them but delete them after a half glance. I use them to make a coffee table book every year of my daughter’s life. I wait until they have a BOGO or a B1Get-One-1/2-Off sale, and give a copy to my mom for Christmas. Combine those sales with this gift certificate savings and I’m in savings heaven!! Thank you!!!!!! I LOVE MyPublisher!

mel - I love Apartment Therapy, that book looks neat!
And, your chandelier is gorgeous!

my favorite flower.
my favorite colors.
my favorite part of my garden.
here for two short weeks of the whole year.
 

Lia - Wow beautiful. You should totally create some magic and find a way to preserve those for my wedding in April. YUM! Loveeee.

Nadia - Those are so very, very beautiful! Peonies are my favorite as well. Stunning photos as always, one of the reasons why I adore coming here. Happy Mother’s Day to you!

holly lesue - GORGEOUS!!!

Mindy - You are right! These are my favorite flower, as well. I need to get some more. You are so lucky, flowers bloom sooner in Kansas than in Iowa!

Sharley McMullen - I love where I live except Spring – SoCal doesn’t do “spring flowers” I have tried too many “adapted” for local climate, peonies, tulips lilacs they don’t work!! So beautiful smell some for me
Sharley (Jessica’s Calif cousin)

Emily - I am green with envy! We can’t grow peonies here. I can Almost smell them…Thanks for sharing!

jessibee08 - i love these pics!!! Are you going to put them for sell in your shop???? 🙂 I would definitely need one of each! They are gorgeous and make me LOVE this time of year even more!
Let me know if you are going to sell them so I can get my hand on some before they are gone:)
Jessica

Amy - I just try not to look at all the ants! We had peonies at our house growing up and all I can think of is the ants that seemed to be always crawling all over them, though lucky for you you don’t seem to have that same problem 🙂

lifeologia - I love peonies too. I had them in my wedding bouquet. You’re lucky mine won’t bloom until next month probably. But I think I can smell them from your shots 😉

julia - I love your flower pics…when I went home to La. I went crazy taking pics of all of the flowers.

Jen CD - I feel like I can smell them through your pictures…

Mary - Mine too. Here in Oklahoma, they’ve been in bloom for about a week. So last night I cut a HUGE bouquet of them to put on the table as they fade away. I wish some scientist could genetically mutate them so that they would bloom all summer long.

Karla Schaitberger - Love, love—your photos! What process did you use on the 1st photo of the blog, I want that look in some of my photos.
Karla

Laura Phelps - have to agree…GREAT flower, and it makes us appreciate it so much because it is here for such a short sweet time. We should treat everyday like we do the peony!!!

Joni Lane - i remember when i first started following your blog, you did a post on your peonies. at that point i had never seen one before (to my knowledge)….literally about a week later, i received some in the mail from my aunt. they are UNBELIEVABLE. i love that they are all balled up, and as soon as i put them in water, they opened before my eyes. i felt like i was watching one of those nature shows where they do time lapse photography. thank you for always sharing your little joys. i don’t always comment, but i always stop by. you are such a breath of fresh air.
thanks meg.

Tam - I love peonies too. My plants dont even have buds yet 🙁 Enjoy yours while they are blooming. Thanks for sharing!

Bee Vollmuth - They’re my favorite too! I’m fighting every urge to go cut the ones blooming on campus (at U of I) to bring them home for myself 😛

Arrica - brings back such sweet memories. summer time at grandma’s. my birthday…playing in the water hose while trying not to get stung by the busy bees. and the sweet smell; oh, i loved the fragrance they share. my grandmother grew these all over the side of the family house. thank you for sharing.

Heather - so pretty!

chasity - …favorite smell….
{{sigh}}
your peonies are stunning.
have you ever put the buds in the fridge?
then you can enjoy them well into the summer.
just take them out and put them in a vase.
it really works!

leslie - these are my favorite too!! just such a beautiful flower. i have tried and tried to grow them here in the south and have one bloom in 7 years ;(….just too hot

alamama - Haha! I await our peonies too. Ours are almost all done. Ours are the exact same colors as yours! Question for you…how did you train for your run? I have tried running and got to a 10min mile and that was that. Also, will you ever sell your colorful pillows on etsy? LOVE them!
Thanks!

www.google.com/accounts/o8/id?id=AItOawnsbTlae7pJDqUhdKGna4GJpAtUeTH72_Q - Can’t wait to see this years pictures of London in the Peonies. They are such beautiful flowers and that little girl in them makes for great pictures and fun.

Ruth@GraceLaced - PEONIES are the BEST. Gorgeous!

Erin @ Cultivating Home - You’re pictures are dreamy and the flowers stunning. I certainly wish I had some of these beauties in my yard.
~Erin

Lanny Stanard - I’m still waiting for mine to bloom, your’s are way ahead of mine… thanks for the picture’s ! Hugs to you 🙂

Janie Fox - Ditto x 6! One of my faves, especially in hot pink!

Bec - LOVE IT! I just recently discovered my new favorite flower and it was a tree so it really won’t last long. I used it for my YouCapture this week on my blog.

Kate @ Songs Kate Sang - Oh wow ~ Great pictures!

DreamGirlLisa - Beautiful, love Peonies…wish I could grow them here in Cali, too hot though.

AshleyAnn - Mine came out today too! We cut one and sent it to Corbett’s teacher, I cut two for the coffee table and I photographed the rest! Why do ants like them so much too? Let’s go to barn sales on peonies farms.

Karen - Gorgeous photos of one of my favorite flowers. I have subscribed to your blog for almost a year and it is one of my favorites (I’m a fellow Kansan!). Thanks for sharing yourself; you are inspiring to me.

Lafleche - I love peonies too. I didn’t know you could grow them at home… I’ll have to look into that. I love your blog!

Molly - Beautiful!
Molly
http://www.mypeaceoflove.com

Juli Jones - i have one of mine in a vase on my table right now and have to take a big wiff everytime i sit down. my fave too for sure! also, i really like your processing on those pics:)

kathy b - A walk in my garden here in California today and I noticed that my one peony is in bloom. I thought of you remembering it is your favorite flower. I think here my blooms last almost 10 days if it stays cool.
Kathy b

Jenny - I LOVE peonies!! They remind me of my Grandma. She had lots and lots of peony bushes in her yard. =)

Trish - I love this flower too! So pretty 🙂

mandi - oh…beautiful. we don’t grow peonies here…major flower envy!

Flower Patch Farmgirl - I second all of that…

Becky @ Farmgirl Paints - Sooo pretty! Enjoy every minute of the next 2 weeks:)

Melody - Isn’t it ridiculous that peonies are one of the most beautiful flowers…they’re in all the wedding magazines…when you ask for them, you find out you can’t have them because they aren’t around anymore…sad, sad, sad! Glad you get to enjoy them in person, if only for a short while. Thanks for sharing with us!

Lora - *flower envy*
:O)

sarah - I LOVE these flowers. I really want to plant these in my backyard when we get to ‘redoing’ that part of the house… but it’s really sad they don’t bloom for very long.
They’re so pretty, enjoy them!!

Nina - my fav too along with hydrangeas! My pink peonies are blooming now and my white ones are getting ready to open!!

Suzanne Gallagher - I love my garden when my peonies are blooming – Your pictures captured yours beautifully!
Suzanne

Melissa Gruber - oh, i don’t have any peonies and i wish i did…they are my favorite flower as well…I LOVE the pink ones!!!

Emily - I don’t have any peonies, but my Mom does. They are my favorite flower. The smell is bliss. I’m sure she won’t miss the few I have adorning my coffee table. SHHHH…don’t tell her.

Pippa - Love them too – I peonies in my wedding bouqet!

Peggyrice@gmail.com - It’s almost time for them here as well! I can’t wait, your pictures make me want some NOW:)

Lori - I feel the same way, Meg! My peonies are just starting to bloom. I cut a few today and they smell heavenly!

beth - those are my favorite too! Beautiful pics!

Krista - Enjoy them while they last, they are so beautiful! Mine are still not ready, they’re still tight little buds. I am keeping an eye on them, last year they bloomed and I didn’t realize it until a few days into it and they were all drooped over onto the ground. Not good!!

Musings Of A Gem - Hi meg,
Just read a similar post to this one in your Archives! It’s a shame they don’t last very long. I hope you don’t get bad weather so they hang around for a bit more 😀
Gemma X http://musings-of-a-gem.blogspot.com/

Lillian - This post is making me SO excited!!! Mine are all tight buds and I just KNOW they’re going to bloom soon and I just CANNOT wait!! The colors are so so very beautiful:)

Melanie - I am so happy that spring is here! The flowers are beautiful!

The Lady of the House - Don’t you just love them! They are so fluffy and full. Enjoy darling!

pam - they are so beautiful…still waiting for mine to pop open…I think I should add some new colors this year.

Jen - I love them too! Just saw a couple small buds on my bush this morning! Yeah!! Enjoy!

Laurie, from Maryland - Peonies are my favorite, too. They have the best smell and are so easy to arrange. Mine won’t be in for another week or two, though!

Amanda Jo - They are beautiful! So sad they only last for two weeks…

i am so weak.

IMG_6704
it was finally more than i could take.
they were calling me from the easter candy isle for a month and i finally gave in.
i am weak.

i bought the smallest bag.
but i ate the whole thing….over three days.

robin eggs are my fav.

and now they are gone and that is out of the way.
i am out to door to exercise.  

see ya.

Courtney Walsh - I’m not sure why I decided it would be a good idea to try and go on a sugar fast the day after Easter. I am weak too…and the kids’ robin eggs and cadbury mini eggs are calling my name from behind the cupboard door in the kitchen!!

Michelle Whitlow - I loooove Robin eggs. They’re my fave, too!! Every time one of my kids gets one, they say “it’s your favorite mommy!” That and Cadbury eggs….

Tara Caspar - Omi… I LOVE the Robin eggs. They are my favorite of all Easter candy! I get the “mini” ones so I can have one yummy bite, and they last longer. Or at least that’s what I tell myself. 🙂 It’s Easter, enjoy!

Kristi - Mine are the Cadbury Mini Eggs. I bought a bag for my daughter’s Easter basket, but it’s ok because the only other candy I got for her were Peeps, and I HATE those. Did you know they actually have a cookbook out for Peeps???

Kathryn Goertzen - I did the SAME thing . . . smallest bag possible . . . malted milk eggs . . . ate the whole bag . . . before I got home!! (I do live several miles out in the country)

Leigh - Robin eggs are the best!!! Now I’m really craving them…

Melanie - I am trying to cut back on sugar but it is hard. I haven’t had a coke in about a week but it is calling me tonight and I am giving in:(
Happy Easter.

Heather - Oh, how this post made me laugh!
Way too close to home 🙂

Trish - i did the same thing with peanut butter m&m’s the kids will never know they were suppose to be in there basket! ugh

meaghan - WEAK?!?! SERIOUSLY!?!? you went WEEKS w/o sweets! i can’t make it a day! you go girl…eat that chocolate!

Tara - the Reese’s peanut butter eggs have been the death of me this year.

Thea - I love those robin eggs too! They are such a weakness…let’s face it…any chocolate is a weakness for me! Enjoy your day! God bless and Happy Easter!

Becky @ Farmgirl Paints - Let’s see… I had a piece of pizza, a chocolate shake and a blueberry pancake today. So I think a little bag of candy isn’t too bad:) Walk it off girl!

Lisa - I can’t even tell you how many peanut butter eggs I had this week. It would gross you out!

sara's art house - OK- I admit- I totally copied you and went and wrote some verses on my chalkboard wall in colored chalk just like you. And then I posted a close-up pic of my jellybeans and I come here and see your cute bowl of robin’s eggs….great minds think alike 🙂
We are devouring our jelly bellies.

Sharla - Jolly Rancher jelly beans. Enough said 🙂

Dianne - You’re better than me…I just bought two bags each of reeses eggs and mini eggs…I’m SO weak!

tasha roe - those are my favorite too!! i cant buy them though….those and cadburry eggs. sigh. i am a sucker for seasonal/holiday candy – candy corn, conversation hearts, robin eggs. i know myself too well…i would have eaten that tiny bag in one sitting. you did good!

Dana Banana - ME TOO!! Robin Eggs are the bomb! (have only eaten part of a bag….so far)

Karina - LOL, I’m eating peanut butter chipits as I read this – too lazy even to eat the chocolate you’re supposed to eat, I go straight for the ingredients in the pantry! You are so not alone in this. And no, my pants from last summer do not fit. I must also get out and exercise – good for you for actually doing it, not just talking about it.

Laura - OMG Meg! I LOVE robin eggs too!
I bought them yesterday afternoon and ate 2/3 of the bag. The remaining eggs are calling me from the desk drawer, where I hid them from the rest of the family! I’m trying to ignore them! I might have to give in though… just to get it over with!
I’m SO glad I’m not the only one!

Tonya - oh they’re my fave too! i didn’t buy any this year….mainly b/c i never saw them! 😉

merlin - I can’t believe the timing of this post.
Just last night I had to explain to my husband and teenager how chocolate can talk, it speaks to me, serenading me into poor choices. It must. I don’t understand it, but I hear it through the cupboard door and the wall….”I’m here, all sweet deliciousness, just for you, I am here for you, melting sugary goodness, all for you”
I have a battle, arguing with the chocolate “no, not for me, you are for a specific purpose” and yet that chocolate sweet talks its way into my mouth. And then I am left wondering what happened, how did the empty wrapper get there, because I certainly had no intention of eating chocolate that was meant for somebody else. Yes, I told them sitting there looking at me incredulously, while I tried to explain the empty wrapper, “I have decided the devil lives in chocolate, that is how he disguises himself and I am so, so very weak.” “OK Mom, the devil’s in the chocolate” replies my teen, not sounding convinced.

Tegan and Tage - Easter candy is pure evil. EVIL!
And delicious.

Kelly - My mom bought Easter candy for us when she was here THREE weeks ago but wanted us to save it till Easter for an Easter basket since we wouldn’t be together. I had to hide that bag I tell you and I am sooo looking forward to it on Sunday!! 🙂 Kelly

Jessica Reed - I have the same problem… I love the cream filled Cadberry eggs. hmm…yumm… Thankfully they are TOO sweet… it takes me the whole week to finish off the pack of three. 🙂

Jennifer - My favorite is Dove Truffle Eggs. I went to 3 stores before I found them. *THAT* is weak. 🙁

Jill - They are my favorite, too! It’s just once a year, enjoy them. Though if you like malted milk balls, try to find Cadbury’s Maltesers one day. They’re English, and are absolutely fantastic.

Annie - At least you’re excercising! I keep telling my butt I need to do something, but alas – no working out for me. Instead I bought dark chocolate truffles 🙁

Ariel - I too ate the whole bag…in 24 hrs. You are stronger that I am when it comes to those little eggs….thank goodness they are gone now!

Christy - Chicks & bunnies for me, only Brach’s brand (like circus peanuts). I must eat them every Easter oh & Reese’s PB eggs, chilled. I can’t help it.

Mary - They have an Easter isle (as in island) at your store? How wonderful!

Lori - I am the same way with candy corn at Halloween. I have to buy a bag and eat it until I feel sick, then I am done! Otherwise, I spread it out and end up eating way more. At least, that’s my justification. Happy Easter!

Jennifer - I have a terrible problem with the Reece’s Peanut Butter Eggs!!!

Lorilee - I adore Robin’s Eggs too! I have bought several bags. Luckly, I usually just eat 4 or 5 every few days.
Blessings,
Lorilee

Paige - Mine are the Cadbury mini eggs…..just walk away. If I buy a bag, they are gone! Immediately!

Nicolle W. - my favorite too! One of the reasons I always look forward to Easter….

Esther Harper - oh my dear, I can totally relate but mine is marshmallow peeps…lol

Lee Ann - You are so NOT alone!

Amy - oh I know how you feel. I am glad the big Cadbury creme eggs only come in singles (don’t tell me about the smaller pack, i know). I love, love , love those things!

clean craft room…again

it was closing in on me.
it had to be cleaned.
a little rearranging…letting in some more sunshine…sweeping…tossing…reorganizing.
 
IMG_6766
the yellow cart became shelves…the top of the lockers were put to good use…a chandelier was hung.
the chandelier used to be in our bedroom but when we made the new closet walls
we forgot to make a place for it.
so it's been in a box for a year…thank goodness it's not anymore.


IMG_6723
IMG_6782
IMG_6744
look….clean counters!  

IMG_6761
the window to the right was blocked so i scooted the lockers down and let the sun shine in!
 

IMG_6770  IMG_6790
    
IMG_6799
i finally hung the hooks on my door.
i was waiting till i painted the trim and the door with real paint instead of just primer. 
then i thought "who the heck cares….it's MY craft room!" so i hung them up.
IF i ever get that door painted i will just take the hooks off.

IMG_6805
i hung my little red shelf that i have had stuck in a box since moving from illinois.
it's the perfect shelf to hold the chalk. 
and bottle caps from africa.
and suckers for kids who come in my room to draw on the walls.

                                                                             here's little craig in kindergarten… 70's sweetness.
IMG_6777
that bulletin board has special art from the girls.
in the drawing made in red marker….that large woman with no legs next to the skinny man…that's ME.
🙂

IMG_6759
it's such a happy space.
makes me want to breathe big deep sighs of loveliness. 
i want to be in here all day long.

but that big crazy family of mine expect so much of me…meals, laundry, groceries, car rides, sports!!!
when is a girl supposed to get crafty?!

ha.

i find time.
i just wish there was more time in the day.
last night i thought "i'm so tired but i am ticked that i have to sleep…i'd rather just go go go"
 
but my bed is so comfy that i quickly fell asleep
(and had totally bizarre dreams by the way….
in my dream someone said to me "you are not white trash!  you are so far from it!"  
i woke up and thought "what the what?!")

 
well anyway…if you need me…i'll be in the craft room.

Egor - next year, i hope you add september’s (indian lakes) to the list. they have a bleu cehsee-stuffed burger that is excellent. btw, i do hope to ping you once the weather gets nice to check out the stump smoker.~ carpetbagger

Louie Cunningham - Ooh, your craft room is looking good! Keeping things clean and organized can be a little hard, but when you see results like that, you can’t help but work hard to make sure that things are kept in such a state. Well, invest in ways to store some of that stuff later on to prevent an accumulation of clutter!

carpet cleaning lakewood wa - Cleaning up our closets means cleaning the clutter and all stuff that are scattered. This is a routine that we have to maintain in order for us to be able to have the cleanliness that we deserve. hanks a lot for sharing your points of view with us. Keep up the good work

Rachel Ridd - You literally have the best craft room that I have ever seen. Please share where all of the inspiration came from. Is it things that you have been collecting over time? It looks like a room of things that you love.

Morning T - WOWEE…I am in awe of your craft room, it’s absolutely incredible!
Love your blog and your Easter egg adventures were too cute…adding you to my blog roll so I can keep up with you.
Happy Easter to you and your sweet family Meg!!
T

kelly - Love the room…so fun and filled with bits and pieces and it made me want to jump in there and get crafty. I can so relate, I have been trying to clean my bead table for a month, thanks for the incentive!

Carolyn Ruth - I can’t even tell you how jealous I am of your craft room! I LOVE it! Even when it’s messy, I wish it were mine. Although that’s actually true of your whole house…I have looked at the pics of your house many times. 🙂

Vera - I have to admit – I covet your craft room. I LOVE it! It’s about the size of my living room, and my craft room is a table and a dresser in our dining room ha! But just looking at your pictures was the inspiration I needed to finish sewing my kids’ Easter outfits.

Magchunk - I love how colorful and just packed to the gills your craft room is! It is bursting with creativity. After this post I just want to color, sew, stamp, cut, and glue!

Traci - i just love your craft room. all the treasures and vintage goodies. all the light. and most of all, all the love!!

Melanie - That room makes me smile as I know that it does you too! Happy Easter.

Kellie Dugan - Love the room Meg! It looks just like your pillows. So fun and vintage looking. I am glad you enjoyed your trip and I have enjoyed your pictures. Will be back tomorrow! Thanks for the daily inspiration.

Ann at the Handley Bungalow - Hi Meg! Being the 84th to comment, I doubt you’ll see this but I just had to say how much I LOVE your craft space and every wonderful, perky thing in it! The pictures of it alone are uplifting. You are such a creative gal and I know you inspire many, including me for sure! Hope you have a wonderful Easter! XO Ann

sara's art house - Oh my goodness! Your chalkboard wall is gorgeous- I am so going to erase all my white words and add colored chalk!!!! Love it. Love the verse.

Rachel - The bird with a french fry poster is awesome! My daughter and I have a spot where we park and throw fries to pigeons; they land all over the car and we laugh until our bellies hurt. Weird dream! Speaking of weird dreams, my daughter woke up the other day and said, “Mommy, I dreamed you were feeding me washcloths for breakfast and I didn’t want them but you said don’t waste the food you made.” Wonder what that says about me? 😉

DreamGirlLisa - I sooooo LOVE your craft room! I need to make mine more colorful like yours, although is just a mini version, it could be a lot more inspiring. I’ll keep looking at your pictures and maybe I’ll get to it…when I have time. I totally get the not wanting to waste time sleeping 🙂

kristine - looks fantastic (once again)! good for you!

TheBookworm - Lovely room!
Oh how I wish I could get you to decorate for me. Or at least make me a few things…pillows, blankets, etc!

kathy b - If my spare space could look pretty instead of just junky I would indulge myself an area for crafting. You manage to impart that prettyness to your area.
It makes me chuckle to recognize some familiar pieces of chenile. At my house they just kept getting moved around without ever being made into anything. They just made me feel guilty. I hope they don’t create any guilt in you!
Kathy b

Jennifer - Meg, Where do you buy your pom pom trim?

Lori - I LOVE,LOVE,LOVE your craft room. Love the happy colors, love the detail 🙂

Good job! I’m inspired to make our home more fun for my kiddos.

Julie - Great job! Yours is so colorful and fun. I just redid mine…you can see it at http://www.juliejohnsonblog.blogspot.com...

Jenn - yummy!!!!
Jenn

rhonda - Meg, Great photos. So artistic. You have inspired me to finish up my craft room/office. LOL at your dream. I had a wierd dream where I was looking for a date for the prom……until I remembered, “oh wait, I’m married” where did that come from. have a great day.
Rhonda

Kate - Ok. That’s it. I am getting in my car and driving over… AZ isn’t too far, right? LOL. Have a great day!

Gemma - Wow I LOVE your craft room…everything just looks so shabby chic and pretty! Wish I could come around and play : )
If you get the chance I would love it if you guys took a peek at my blog…

Sami Melton - it is amazing how happy pom poms make me 🙂

Bec - I’m pretty sure we have the same cutting board 😉 And I was having weird dreams until a wild pack of dogs decided to wake us up at 1:30 am and scare the bejeeze out of us.

Karina - I agree with what purejoy said. Simply lovely.

jen - I absolutely love it! It IS so happy! Love the stuff you added – so very cute!

Rebekah - Someday. Someday I will have a craft space like this. I love it!

Tara - awesomeness. pure awesomeness.

ruthi - that was fun!

Kristi - Beautiful and inspiring room! I often get discouraged that I have to go to sleep. There’s just so much I want to do. I guess that’s why kids don’t like to sleep. 🙂

Tara - I love EVERYTHING about your craft room…
love, love, love
~Tara

Lanny Stanard - I feel so much better… Sure would love to come and play! give waffle a hug for me 🙂

corrie - heavenly!!!!!!!!!! what a lovely space to create in! I always find cleaning the craft room is so hard to find time for because it’s time I could be sewing, quilting or doing something creative! you’ve done a lovely job!
happy to swap spaces anytime:)
Corrie:)

Meredith - A pocketful of sunshine, Meg. It’s so important to have a happy place to “escape” to far from the maddening crowd.

LouBoo - Hello Megan. Your craft room is just de-lovely. I would want to play in there all night too. But sleep is important so, even with the strange dreams, it was probably the best choice 😉 LB x

Kyleigh - Lions and tigers and bears OH MY! I love it. I want one… it’s so happy! Enjoy!

linda lou - meggie it’s me again when i say i’d take the chandelier off your hands i mean i’d buy it$$
within reason unless its got true meaning in your life (: my aunt gave me her’s out of her new build home over 20yrs ago and it has hung in two different diningrooms so if i move from here it goes with me and i hope its not the nursing home ): lindalou

Maria - ok, 3 things:
1. Can I move into your craft room? love.it.
2. ‘what the what?’…lol, this is a new saying in our home after ds4 repeated after hearing it…his version was hilarious
3. did I mention I love your craft room? sigh. those red lockers!

Jenna - Are you selling these upcoming pillows on etsy?? I want a pillow so badly 🙂

Diana - what did you toss?? what?! i want it!
LOL!
ahhhh, sunshine, mmmmmmmmm!

linda lou - meggie i’ll take the chandiler (sp) off your hands?? i cleaned today w/my daughter in law and you need sunglasses it so clean….
linda lou

amanda fuentes - I have 3 of the little red/white polka dot boxes I spyed on top of a pile in one of the pics.. 50% off Vday clearance! I love them! I NEED one of those red/white polka dot bags hanging on your still needs to be painted door.. 🙂 Red and white polka dots are my favorite!

peta - oh I heart heart heart your special crafting space. such carefully placed INTERESTING and unique pieces. Mine is so bland and looks like it stepped out of a flat-packed store (because it has). I am inspired to go thrifting and paint some chalkboard paint on something!
thanks for sharing. i could look at pictures of the corners of your home all day long.
Happy Easter!

Sally Mangham - Love the hooks on the door. I also LOVE the littl red shelf. Too cute!

amy jupin - LE SIGH!
you’re killing me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i look at these pics and i see so many of the same things i have. are we total twinkies or what?

Lynn - Oh I love love love your space! How fantastic! Where did you get the print that says “Today I will be happier than a bird with a french fry”? I love that!

candace - what a fun space!

Tere - I’m in love…..

Emily - I agree! You are SO far from white trash!
(I’ve been having odd dreams myself)
You have inspired me to put more love (and color!) into my little craft area. I love your red shelf. And the chalkboard. And the cherry tea towel hanging on your cabinet. (Reminds me of mine, http://thatcraftymrsv.blogspot.com/2010/03/aprons.html) Seems we all love lots about your lovely little room!
And if I lived anywhere near you, I would love to come and sit in your craft room with you while you sew and we could talk and I would have a lollypop. (:
Emily

Flower Patch Farmgirl - Best place Evah. I still adore that white/green chippy cabinet with the pink felt flower thingys. And your verse. And your “I am here to serve with JOY”. Oh, and your dream. From one crazy dreamer to another – good one. 🙂

Trasie - UUUMMM If I promise to pick up after myself can I come and live in your craft room?

sharron - a happy happy place.. i loved my visit.
blessings~

Kelly - lovely! Thanks for showing us. I have the exact same thoughts about having to sleep but unfortunately I’m not sleeping well these days at 8 1/2 months pregnant. 🙁 Kelly

Shara - I wanna live in your craft room! I’ll help you make pillows!

jen - I was thinking to myself, I wish that I had a craft room like Meg’s. The funny thing is that I could have one–not a beautiful light-filled one (it’s in the basement) but I could MAKE IT NICE if I ever made the time to paint the drywall, to hang stuff up, to out in some storage and a couple of tables…IT’S UP TO ME. And I am inspired by your room.
Thanks.

nella paper studio - this looks like the perfect place to create something bright and fun! Love the chandelier.

Rebecca Reynolds - As much as I love to sleep, I too, wish I didn’t need to. It just takes up so much time! 🙂

susan wilson - Fun seeing the Snap on Tools holder in your pictures. You purchased that at my garage sale a couple of years ago. I orginally bought it at Round Top in Texas.

Valley - Oh *sigh….
You make me dreamy!!
Looking forward to getting my hands on some of your pillows….always a day late….lol and usually a dollar short…it’s that stay at home mom thing! Hehehe
Happy Easter!!

patti - so lovely. i’m watching the clock waiting, just waiting for the play room to become my craft room. my kids are only 5 and 2 1/2 – i think i’m going to be watching the clock for a very, very long time. but it’ll be worth the wait when i get there! 🙂 have a wonderful weekend and easter!!

Marie - I want your craft room;) It’s lovely. And you literally made me LAUGH OUT LOUD! I feel ya…I have so many things to sew and paint! When my hubby came home from work today and asked what we were having for dinner, I cheerfully replied, “leftovers”! (Cause, ya know, microwave=more time to craft!) He’s not as enthusiastic about that as I am…? Time to go all out and plug in the crock pot! 🙂

purejoy - dude. i would never leave. i’d leave to go menus by the phone and tell my family to order carry out. i’d put in a cot. and a coffee maker. and a portapotty. seriously. never leave. i’d order in a basin of water and take sponge baths and open up windows when the stank of me got too bad. geesh. what a perfect room. it made me want to go thrifting. ohmyword. i was in heaven for just a second.

Sarah@Clover Lane - ooooooh…house pics….you know how i feel about looking at your house. i’ll take any glimpse i can get.
love.

Jill - Cleaning a craft room is so fun. I love the rediscovery of goodness, the promise of crafts to come. Thank you so much for sharing your space.

Amy Lynne - I cannot wait to have a craft room again! Yours is just beautiful and so cheery! Love it!

AshleyAnn - So it is breaking a Ten Commandment to covet your neighbors wife….is it still breaking a commandment if you are coveting your online friend’s craft room? Just curious.

Becky @ Farmgirl Paints - Your creative space is so fun and colorful. I LOVE THAT CARD…a bird with a french fry. It just cracks me up:)

JustMommer - i know it’s a sin, but I covet your craft room!

Julie - this looks like such a fun place!!! thanks for sharing!

sandy toe - It is a very happy place!
Sandy toe

Rachel - What a great room! Now, can you spare some time to come and help me clean my space?

J.B. Kinrich - Yum! Makes me want to come play in your craft room!

kelly - Love your chalkboard wall… especially the verse written on it. 🙂 That’s EXACTLY where we’re living right now. 🙂 Everything looks lovely.

Dick in Ohio - The black wooden Snap-On Tools box caught my eye. I was a Snap-on Tools distributor some twenty years ago. Still buy them and use them everyday at my business. Best mechanic’s tools you can get. Really enjoy your blog. Proud of you for going to Haiti, enjoyed the pictures.

ashley - Oh Meg! Everything is just so lovely and happy. I want this room, actually I want your whole house. Or maybe just a sprinkle of whatever happy dust you use.

Jackie - Now you’ve got me longing for a craft room. Everything is so bright and cheery in there, and love the red lockers. Jackie
