"What's hanging on my front door <b>right now</b>?!"</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It's usually crickets in my head after I ask this question. I'm not awesome at updating my front door wreath...But not this month! I've seen so many pretty FALL wreaths on front doors in my neighborhood - I wanted IN on the festive fun. I whipped out my Burlap Wreath {<i>easiest wreath EVER! and super easy to switch up for different holidays - ><a href="http://iputabirdonit.blogspot.com/2012/07/burlap-spring-wreath.html" target="_blank">here's my POST</a>< on that baby</i>} and made it into a <b>Burlap & BOO Halloween Wreath</b>.</div>

I used my burlap wreath (which is adorable just on its own) and made a second wreath to go in the middle. I thought it added unique dimension to the usual holiday wreath. The inner wreath is a foam wreath form wrapped in my favorite black & white polka dot fabric (hot glued into place). Then, I used a mustard yellow wired twine to wrap it around the burlap wreath and hang my BOO banner. Mustard yellow is a MUST for this fall {see more mustard yellow inspiration <b><a href="http://iputabirdonit.blogspot.com/2014/10/happy-october-fall-family-photos-outfit.html" target="_blank">HERE</a></b>}.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The BOO banner was inspired by <b><a href="http://www.abeautifulmess.com/2013/10/halloween-decor-boo-banner.html" target="_blank">A Beautiful Mess and their BOO Banner</a></b>. Adorable, right? Their tutorial is pretty simple, but I simplified it even MORE by making a mini version - skipping the sewing {<i>cause y'all know girl can't sew</i>} - and used my <a href="http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/" target="_blank"><b>Silhouette Cameo</b></a> to cut it out of fabric. If it was any easier - a cave man could do it. And they should. Cause you can't tell me their caves couldn't use a Burlap & BOO Halloween Wreath.</div>

This month, I'm taking part in a Silhouette Challenge, along with the bloggers of "The Silhouette Challenge" group on Facebook. If you have a Silhouette, you should totally join this group! This is the first monthly challenge I'm part of, but I enjoy being part of the group every day. Ask questions - show off your projects - learn about Silhouette promos - and get mad inspired. For this challenge, I'm going to share the tutorial for making your own Mini BOO Banner with a Silhouette cutting machine! I used the Cameo, but you can totally use a Portrait. In fact - I used the Portrait cutting mat in my Cameo for this very banner. {<i>remember - so easy - the cavemen - cool</i>}</div>

<li>Peel off & discard excess fabric. Cut your wooden dowel down to size, leaving an inch or so on each side. Line up the dowel on the top back of your BOO banner, with enough fabric to wrap over the dowel to cover it. Place a line of hot glue along the dowel, wrap the fabric over and glue into place.</li>

Pretty original, right? Oh, well. I'm on the FALL train with the rest of Instagram. I love it. And I love this quote:<br />

This weekend, my<a href="https://www.facebook.com/sandradavisphotography" target="_blank"> amazing sister</a> is taking family & maternity photos of my little fam. I am really excited, because FALL is finally here {it's been in the 80's up until last weekend!}. The leaves are changing to burnt orange, everything smells of pumpkin, and there's a cool bite to the air. I am 30 weeks along and am excited to document this baby boy bump!</div>
<br />
I've been turning to Pinterest for all my fall photo color & fashion inspiration. Here are some pins that inspired the color scheme I chose for our family photos. I am <b>loving</b> these colors for fall 2014. You'll notice that <b>MUSTARD YELLOW</b> is at the heart of my fall color love. It's just yummy and cozy and I love it. If you know where I can get a mustard yellow throw - you'll be my best friend.<br />

And here is my outfit mood board I created for what I plan to have my family wear! I've already changed it in my head a few times - I can't decide juuuuuuuuust how I want our outfits to go - so we will see this weekend what I actually decide on. I've never planned out a photo shoot like this, but it's been fun.</div>

What do you think? Does it scream "FALL" enough? Did I pull from my inspiration photos? I can't decide if the coral cardigan (for Ava) should be <b>mint</b>, instead of coral...and if there should be more pops of color. I'm pulling from that pattern in the bottom left, which is a headband I ordered for Ava from<a href="http://www.lemonsandlace.com/" target="_blank"> <b>Lemons and Lace</b></a>. Let me know - I need all the help I can get before Sunday!<br />

Here's how each costume breaks down:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>DAD - "Willy Wonka"</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>Brown Top Hat</li>
<ul>
<li>I bought one <u><a href="http://www.amazon.com/HMS-Satin-Inch-High-Brown/dp/B009I10V5Q/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1408648057&sr=8-3&keywords=brown+top+hat" target="_blank">like this</a></u> from Amazon</li>
</ul>
<li>Flower Vest</li>
<ul>
<li>I found a woman's denim flower shirt from a thrift store (Deseret Industries) - it totally worked as a "vest" {yes, it's a woman's shirt, but it doesn't look like it when Mr. Wonka is rockin' it!}</li>
</ul>
<li>Purple Jacket</li>
<ul>
<li>I gotta say - I totally lucked out on this one! I found a purple jacket {again - a woman's!} at a thrift store. It was a purple blazer and it worked perfectly! Just look around thrift stores and you are bound to find one that will work!</li>
</ul>
<li>Bow Tie</li>
<ul>
<li>My husband just used a regular brown tie of his and tied it in a bow. Perfect!</li>
</ul>
<li>Cane</li>
<ul>
<li>This is the crowning part of Mr. Wonka's costume. Ask a parent or grandparent if they have an old cane you can borrow. Chances are - they will say YES! And if your husband is anything like mine, he will get WAY too into playing the part once he has that cane in his hand. </li>
</ul>
</ul>
<div>
That's all you need to be Willy Wonka! Don't go out and spend a fortune on any of these costumes. You can seriously find almost everything at a local thrift store!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>MOM - "Oompa Loompa"</b></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Brown long-sleeved shirt</li>
<ul>
<li>I had one at home, but thrift store-it up, if you don't!</li>
</ul>
<li>White "puffy" pants</li>
<ul>
<li>You can use white capris/pants, if you have them, or go thrifting! {<i>are you seeing how most items are being thrifted??} </i>I found some white baggy sweat pants that worked perfectly!</li>
</ul>
<li>White suspenders</li>
<ul>
<li>I bought a pair <u><a href="http://www.amazon.com/TopTie-Mens-Elastic-Y-Back-Suspenders/dp/B0042CXNKG/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1408654927&sr=8-7&keywords=white+suspenders" target="_blank">like this</a></u> from Amazon {super cheap!}</li>
</ul>
<li>Green hair</li>
<ul>
<li>I was miss boring head and didn't color my hair green. Next time, I probably will! You can get an "oompa loompa" wig off Amazon for $15, or use green hair spray to color your hair. Even without the green hair, everyone knew what I was!</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<div>
There you have it! Congrats! You're an oompa loompa now. I recommend learning the songs, so you can break into song and dance randomly {and whip out those killer midget dance moves you've been hiding!}.</div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>BABY - "Wonka Bar"</b></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Wonka Bar Outfit</li>
<ul>
<li>Click <b><u><a href="http://iputabirdonit.blogspot.com/2013/11/diy-baby-wonka-bar-costume.html" target="_blank">HERE</a></u></b> to view how I made my Wonka outfit for Ava! You could use a baby onesie, instead of the sleeper like I used, and paint the Wonka logo or use heat transfer. In my DIY tutorial, I dyed a sleeper brown and used my <u><b><a href="http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/" target="_blank">Silhouette Cameo</a></b></u> to cut vinyl for a Wonka stencil, then used fabric paint to color it in. Check it out!</li>
</ul>
</ul>

I've kind of been obsessed with LEMONADE lately. Chick-Fil-A has the BEST lemonade - and it comes in a yummy diet version, too. I started looking up yummy homemade lemonades on Pinterest and found some that look A-MA-ZING. Here in Utah, the weather is warm, the outdoors are calling my name, and you'll definitely be able to find me mixing up some of these yummy summer lemonades in the next few months. Do you have a favorite lemonade recipe or restaurant that serves your fave lemonade? Let me know in the comments! Enjoy this sweet roundup!</span><br />

Happy Monday! I hope everyone's weekend was amazing. We spent a lot of time with family, took Ava on her first pony ride {she LOVED IT!} and the best part? We found a home! A home we want to buy! And live in forever! It is amazing, and I had that "<i>this is the one!</i>" feeling while walking through it. I cried when we walked out to the backyard, because it felt like <b>our home</b>. We've just gone through so many homes that weren't going to work out and lost a couple from offers not working out, too, so going through this one was just the best experience. Cross your fingers they accept our offer!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Today, I've got a home decor DIY that would go great in a new home, an old home, an apartment and everything in-between! I originally shared this post on <a href="http://belleofthekitchen.com/" target="_blank">Belle of the Kitchen</a>. At Target {of course} I found some discounted shadow box frames. The one in the picture below is super similar to the ones I bought, except the inside part was NEON YELLOW. Not that I don't love me some neon, but it wouldn't work with my home's color scheme. I decided to buy the frames anyway, since they were so cheap, and do a little burlap makeover to make it an interchangeable picture frame. Read on to see how easy it was!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You only need a few supplies for this fun project: <b>Shadow Box Frame, Burlap </b>{or other fabric of choice}<b>, hot glue gun and a clip</b> of some sort. That's it!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Tip: Craft stores often have great picture frames sales. Get the store's app on your phone for coupons, too!</b></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">There are only 3 steps! </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: large;">First, remove the back {the part with the stand} of the shadow box frame. Cut your piece of fabric to cover the front and fold over an inch or so over the back. Hot glue the fabric in place. It doesn't need to be pretty - no one's going to see the back! Second, hot glue your clip to the front of fabric. Third, attach your fave photo or printable quote to the clip, replace the backing, and you're done!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I made 3 of these frames, since it was so easy. I loved the burlap fabric, but also thought a fun floral or stripe pattern would be cute with a fave printable or quote. You could frame kids' artwork or family photos, too! I love that they have the simplicity of a regular picture frame, but the dimension of a shadow box. I put photos of the most recent vacation we went on. These frames are awesome, because you can change out the photos whenever you want!</span></div>

Guest Post by Laura of Lovely Wren<span style="font-size: large;">Hi Everyone! My name is Laura, and I blog about knitting, crafting and photography over at <a href="http://www.lovelywren.com/" target="_blank">Lovely Wren</a>. I've never done a blog swap before, so I'm thrilled to be trying it today for the first time. A big thanks to Daniela for having me :)
I've come up with a sweet little DIY coffee filter flower garland to share with you today. It's somewhat time consuming, but easy to do, and gives you beautiful results! I made it to hang over my corkboard and brighten up my apartment, but it would also be great for birthday parties, baby showers, bridal showers, or just about any kind of party! </span><br />

First I'll talk about dyeing the filters, then I'll show you how to make the different styles of flowers I used, and finally I'll tell you how to the garland together. Ready? Let's dive in! </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong><br /></strong></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Supplies:</strong>
</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Coffee Filters - I used 40 total for a 5.5 garland</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Red, yellow, blue, green, and purple food coloring</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">24 gauge floral wire</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">scissors</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Dyeing the Filters:</strong>
I used food coloring in water to dye my filters. I made yellow, lime green, pink, purple and light blue. A little water + dye goes a long way! I used 1/2 cup or so of water for each color (which gave me 15 - 20 filters in each color - way more than I needed for this project!) Here's how much food coloring to add to your water:
</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Lime Green:</strong> A few drops of green food coloring and one drop of yellow.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Pink:</strong> Two or three drops of red food coloring.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Light Blue:</strong> Just a few drops of blue food coloring.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Purple:</strong> I actually used purple food coloring. It was a little jar of gel - I dipped my finger in a couple times and then stirred it into the water. You should be able to find purple at Joann's or Walmart. (Trying to mix red and blue to make purple doesn't really work! I'd definitely recommend buying some purple instead!)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Yellow:</strong> A couple squeezes of yellow - I felt like I was really using a lot, but you don't get a nice, sunny yellow unless you do!</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Making the Flowers:</strong>
I used five different flower shapes for this garland. You can find step by step photos and written instructions for each shape below. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong><br /></strong>
<strong>#1 - The Flat Pinwheel</strong> </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/lovelywren/14113803979" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="FlatPinwheelHowTo by Laura Mason, on Flickr"><span style="font-size: large;"><img alt="FlatPinwheelHowTo" height="638" src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5540/14113803979_f34149315e_b.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Fold your coffee filter in half, and grasp it in the middle between your thumb and fingers.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Wrap the thumb and forefinger of your other hand around the base of the filter (you should be holding the coffee filter with both hands at this point, but I had to use one hand to take the photo!)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Tighten your thumb and forefinger, and pull the coffee filter down through them.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Still pinching the bottom tip of the coffee filter, pull the edges out and down into a circle.</span></li>
</ol>
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>#2 - The Scrunched Pinwheel</strong>
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/lovelywren/14298559952" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="ScrunchedPinwheelHowTo by Laura Mason, on Flickr"><span style="font-size: large;"><img alt="ScrunchedPinwheelHowTo" height="638" src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3778/14298559952_3f192280ce_b.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<ol>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Same as pinwheel flower.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Same as pinwheel flower</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Pinch about halfway up the base of the flower, and fold the edges down and out.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Crumple and scrunch the edges of the pinwheel to give it more texture. You can scrunch the whole top up in your hand and then gently push the edges back down. Don't push or pull the edges too hard after scrunching - you don't want to loose all that pretty texture.</span></li>
</ol>
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>#3 The Carnation</strong>
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/lovelywren/14320657723" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="CarnationHowTo by Laura Mason, on Flickr"><span style="font-size: large;"><img alt="CarnationHowTo" height="638" src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3830/14320657723_7d50e4be62_b.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<ol>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Same as pinwheel flower</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Same as pinwheel flower</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Grab about 3/4 of the way up the base of the flower</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Scrunch the top, the fold and pull out just a little bit to create that ruffly carnation look</span></li>
</ol>
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>#4 The Loose Carnation</strong>
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/lovelywren/14299922694" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="LooseCarnationHowTo by Laura Mason, on Flickr"><span style="font-size: large;"><img alt="LooseCarnationHowTo" height="638" src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3755/14299922694_eb8f096f0a_b.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<ol>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Same as pinwheel flower.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Same as pinwheel flower, but don't squeeze your thumb and forefinger into quite as tight of a circle.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Pull the coffee filter through your fingers very gently. You want to be creating a shape similar to the one shown in step 3 of the pinwheel flower, but you want it to be much looser.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Grip just a little ways up the base (as you can see in the third picture) and gently pull and run your fingers along the creases to smooth out the flower.</span></li>
</ol>
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>#5 The Rose</strong>
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/lovelywren/14300498995" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="RoseHowTo by Laura Mason, on Flickr"><span style="font-size: large;"><img alt="RoseHowTo" height="640" src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5581/14300498995_981d9cc750_o.jpg" width="428" /></span></a></div>
<ol>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Cut a straight line in your coffee filter, from the edge to about the middle</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Begin rolling one edge of the cut onto itself. You want to roll tighter at the bottom and looser at the top.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Once your tube is started, pinch at the bottom and continue wrapping/rolling the coffee around itself.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Keep rolling/wrapping your flower, always pinching it more tightly together at the bottom and letting the top edge roll loosely.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Finish rolling and pinch your rose tightly at the bottom.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Reach into the center and use your finger to curl the beginning a little bit tighter. Scrunch and pinch the top of the rose to give it some texture!</span></li>
</ol>
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Making the Garland:</strong>
Putting your garland together is really easy - just wrap wire around the base of each flower, continuing until your garland is the size you want it. You can bend and manipulate your wire into a more organic, wavy shape, or keep your flowers in a straighter line. A few tips and tricks are listed below. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">It's easier to work with small sections of wire and flowers. I made 5 "mini garlands" and then connected them into one big piece</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">You only need to wrap the wire around each flower once or twice</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">For flowers like carnations, which have longer "stems" on the back side of the garland, you can snip off the excess filter and then flatten the leftover to help the flowers lay close to the wall</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">My garland was 5.5 feet long when finished. I used 39 coffee filters: 18 white, 6 purple, 4 each of green, pink, and yellow, and 3 blue.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">I used the flat pinwheel shape the most, followed by the scrunch pinwheel. Then I threw in a few carnations, loose carnations and roses.</span></li>
</ul>

Sorry I've been a little MIA lately...we are still living at my dad's and YEP my craft box is STILL packed up. :( BUT - I'll try really hard to make it up to you with lots of fun crafts when I get my own house with my own craft room (hopefully!). We put in an offer on a home today, but the house is already under contract, so we are just a backup offer. We probably won't get it, so we are continuing to look...hoping we find that one special home soon!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Today, I've got a Silhouette tutorial for you. I originally guest posted this on <a href="http://www.getsilvered.com/" target="_blank">Get Silvered</a> and am excited to share it with you guys now! For those of you who don't know, I own the Silhouette Cameo and L-O-V-E it. I use it for almost every craft I make. One in particular is the Maternity Countdown Shirt that I sell {<a href="http://putabirdonitshop.storenvy.com/" target="_blank">SHOP</a>}. I make each shirt by hand and would cut out a stencil for the numbers <b>each and every time</b>. It was kind of time consuming and used up a lot of vinyl per shirt. Just a couple months ago, I found out that Silhouette sells a -- you ready for this? -- <b style="text-decoration: underline;">REUSABLE STENCIL MATERIAL!!!!!!</b> I pretty much freaked out and immediately bought some to try out. Well, it's AMAZING! It's basically a thin plastic that I use over and <i>over and<b> over again</b>. </i>I make so many shirts with one stencil - it saves me SO much time and money. This post is all about my review and a tutorial for cutting and using it!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The Stencil Material comes in a tube. This is great for storing, but not totally great for the stencil material itself. Mine had a few bubbles (you can see in pic below) which made me think at first that the cutting part did not cut all the way through. I was happy to see when I unloaded it that it did cut perfectly - I just had to pull the stencil off the paper backing carefully to make sure it came off along the cut lines in a couple of places. {<i>addition: since I wrote this review, I've purchased more stencil material, and it didn't bubble. Maybe it was just my first try...!}</i></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Load your stencil material into your Silhouette (no cutting mat - remember to adjust your rollers!) with the stencil material facing UP (paper backing on the bottom). Design your stencil in Silhouette Studio and click "Send to Silhouette." In the Cut Settings, just scroll down and pick your material - which is <b>Stencil</b>. It will then show you what to adjust your Blade & Rollers to. Easy peasy - now CUT!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This is what my stencil looked like after I cut it and removed it from the paper backing. <b>YOU NEED TO KEEP THE PAPER BACKING!</b> You'll put the stencil back on the paper backing after you use it, so you can keep it and use it again! See all of the number "inside" parts? Like the inside of the "8" and the "0" and the "9" - etc. ? I put those in a little plastic bag, to keep, so I don't lose them, since you need them for your stencil. You guys - I seriously can't tell you <b>how much I love having a reusable stencil!!!!!!!</b> It saves me SO much time. It's just awesome. :)</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Paint your project (remember to put something UNDER your project, so the paint doesn't seep through!), let dry (use a blow dryer to speed up drying time!), and you're done! Remove the stencil - and SAVE IT for your next project. I just LOVE this new stuff. It's seriously awesome, if you can't tell. :)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You have to let me know if you try this out and what your experience is. Here are some more projects I've used a stencil cut with my Silhouette Cameo:</span><br />

Hey y'all. I'm so excited to be taking over for Daniela today. I'm Mary the girl behind the blog <a href="http://www.eatdrink-andbemary.com/">Eat Drink & Be Mary</a>. The place where I share <a href="http://www.eatdrink-andbemary.com/2014/02/the-look.html">the "looks" that have shaped my life</a>, how <a href="http://0.0.7.222/05/verses-on-patience-and-waiting.html">I struggle with patience</a>, and of course <a href="http://www.eatdrink-andbemary.com/search/label/recipe">recipes</a> I have tried and LOVE.

<span style="font-size: large;">ONLY three ingredients? I promise it's not to good to be true. Oreos. Cream Cheese. and Melting Chocolate -- I prefer Candiquik. I just LOVE recipes with very few ingredients.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">No-Bake. As if this recipe couldn't get any better you DON'T have to bake it. You just mix up the crushed Oreos and the softened cream cheese. Chill the mixture once you've rolled it into balls. And then dip it into the melted chocolate. <i>Wham bam thank you ma'am.</i> You've just made <b>THE</b> easiest dessert that is perfect to take to any party, work function, or just because you are craving chocolate. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Do you have any amazing plans for Memorial Day weekend? Or maybe a favorite recipe? I'll definitely be scanning Pinterest for last minute Memorial Day crafts & recipes. You can follow me <a href="http://www.eatdrink-andbemary.com/2014/04/waiting-on-Gods-timing.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>. My little family has been living with my dad while we are house hunting, so we've decided to go somewhere for the weekend to get some "just us" family time in. My husband's been traveling for work a lot the past month, so we have some much need family R&R coming our way. I want to stay at a hotel with a pool, so Ava can go swimming! I hope she loves the water this year as much as she did last year, but she was only 7 months the last time she went swimming...OK OK...I'm really just excited, because I bought her new swimsuits at Target <i>months</i> ago, just waiting for summer, so I can put her in them! Ha ha. Yep. Little girl clothes are sooooo cute - sometimes I just can't resist. :)</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">We will probably stay in Park City, Utah - so if you have any fave restaurants or hotel suggestions - we are super last minute planning here, so let me know! We will probably just eat food, relax in the hotel, find a LDS church in PC on Sunday to attend <a href="https://www.lds.org/topics/sacrament?lang=eng" target="_blank">Sacrament Meeting</a>, and then on Memorial Day go on a hike in Heber or Park City. There are <i>so many</i> beautiful places in Utah, once things settle down with our house adventures, we definitely want to get out in the world and discover them all!</span></div>

M is also for Mmmmmmmmmmmmm - which is the first word that comes to mind when I think of this recipe. For Mother's Day last week, I was in charge of bringing a side dish. I immediately knew I needed (yes - <u>needed</u>) to make a pasta salad. But not just any ol' pasta salad- <b>the best italian pasta salad EVER!</b> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaW3rzQKQxAE79ay_08skBQkPrWNZe8ovv2DZWLWS59EHZEXGnK68b0WPrHUcUF3GXtSTX3IMIHS7k5WAUhjJ4dQzt1KOUggGnkBf8o6UK51_ilEzhDqINYWVfVeP03OurEOufVL4LBgE/s1600/italian+pasta+salad+recipe2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaW3rzQKQxAE79ay_08skBQkPrWNZe8ovv2DZWLWS59EHZEXGnK68b0WPrHUcUF3GXtSTX3IMIHS7k5WAUhjJ4dQzt1KOUggGnkBf8o6UK51_ilEzhDqINYWVfVeP03OurEOufVL4LBgE/s1600/italian+pasta+salad+recipe2.jpg" height="640" width="426" /></a></div>

<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">This pasta salad is more than just pasta & italian dressing - the secret is <u>caesar dressing</u> added in, too. It makes it creamy and light and ooooooh just amazing. </span><span style="font-size: large;">It is also soooooo easy to make (especially if you get a cute boy that is conveniently married to you to chop your veggies). You basically just cook the pasta, mix in all the other ingredients and chill. That's it!</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">The next reason this is the BEST pasta salad EVER?! Because you can EASILY make it <b>gluten free </b>and <b>dairy free</b>! I have family that can't eat gluten and I <strike>can't</strike> shouldn't eat dairy, so I whipped up 2 batches of this pasta salad - one regular and one gluten free & dairy free. Both were A-MA-ZING. You can easily substitute other veggies {<i>try red onion!</i>}, or eliminate the salami to make it vegetarian. It's like a blank canvas of deliciousness just waiting for YOU to put your own twist on it. <b>ENJOY!</b></span><br />

<b><span style="font-size: large;">TIPS:</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">* Most salad dressings are 16oz bottles - so just pour about 1/2 of each bottle in (but it's so good, you'll want to double it and use it all!)*</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-size: large;">*Use less veggies & meat, if you want, it's all up to YOU and how much YOU want in it!*</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-size: large;">*Get salami sliced fresh from your local deli. Ask them to slice it in the thickest setting (I got mine from Walmart and had them slice it at a "5"). That way, it's in thick chunks, instead of sandwich-thin slices.*</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">This would be a fab addition to an upcoming Memorial Day party or, now that the sun is out, a barbecue! Mmmmmmmm - now I want some....</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I have teamed up with some FABULOUS bloggers to bring you a <b>Redecorate for Spring Giveaway!</b> The sun is shining, the birds are chirping and, I don't know about you, but I'm itching to do some spring cleaning and get out the clutter! That usually means I'm ready to update my home decor with something bright and fresh, too. Well, it would mean that, if I had my own home and wasn't in limbo between houses, but HEY! That doesn't mean YOU can't redecorate for spring for me.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">All these bloggers LOVE home decor and DIY projects, and I love following them on Pinterest for lots of inspiration (you should, too!). We are giving away <b>3 gift cards, each worth $80, to TJ Maxx, Hobby Lobby and Home Goods</b>. There will be 3 winners, one for each gift card {<i>gift cards will be rewarded in the order shown on the Rafflecopter widget corresponding with the order the winners are picked!</i>}. I hope that lucky winner is YOU! Just enter using Rafflecopter below. Remember - the more entries you do - the higher your chances are of winning. Plus, I heart all these ladies and their blogs, so you won't even mind being a new follower. <b>GOOD LUCK!</b></span><br />

I woke up to a giant bag of candy from Dylan's Candy Bar {from my husband's work trip this past weekend}, so I was a pretty happy momma. Plus, lots of daddy-encouraged Ava hugs & kisses for me, too.

Mother's Day 2014<span style="font-size: large;">Tomorrow is Mother's Day, and I can't help but reflect on what that means <b>to me</b>, at this point in my life. 17 months ago, today, my sweet Ava Noelle was born. While looking back now, it was the greatest day of my entire life, but the days leading up to it were full of many emotions and uncertainty. We waited almost 5 years to become parents - and there were reasons for that. We needed time to grow as a married couple and to learn about ourselves. We were never fully prepared for being parents, but is anyone, really?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I was super scared to have a baby. The process of labor, yes, but scared to bring another human into our life. I'd finally felt like we'd<strike> figured out </strike> started to maybe get the hang of marriage. And I was scared to <u>change</u> that. I'd seen it happen to other couples over and over. You have a baby and your marriage changes. Your husband is no longer your #1 priority - it's your kids. Your husband no longer gets attention - it's your kids. Your husband no longer feels "close" to you - it's your kids. I was scared of putting a wedge between my husband and me - yep - a baby wedge. I was so happy to become a mom - I've always only ever wanted to be a stay-at-home mom. Even in college and working - it all felt like it was just me getting through the time until I became a mom. But when it was suddenly happening - I was scared about change.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">One best friend told me that doesn't have to happen - that your love only <b>grows</b>. It's impossible to understand that idea until you are going through it. I couldn't understand how adding more responsibility, stress and someone else to our life would only bring us closer and make us love each other more. Don't get me wrong - I was super happy to be pregnant - enjoyed every moment of it - had a super easy pregnancy and delivery {think 4 hours from hospital check in and 3 pushes later}. We were super excited and happy - I was just scared about the unknown and didn't want my marriage to change.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">
<b>I was super right</b>. </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: large;">Our marriage DID change. But for the better. I will NEVER forget that first moment of hearing Ava cry and holding her against my chest - looking into my husband's eyes and feeling the presence of God. It's too special and sacred to discuss more, but I will <i>never forget it</i>. And everything changed. How could anything stay the same? And I'm so grateful it did. I loved more. I forgave more. I saw my husband in this whole new level and role as not only a husband, but a father. It's really hard for me to explain in words these emotions and this experience, but I'm forever grateful I get to be a wife to my Conrad and a mother to my Ava. These are blessings I hope to never take for granted. I never thought I would be blessed with such a life. The Lord has always looked out for me, as he does for each of you.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I grew up when President Gordon B. Hinckley was the prophet of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He was my prophet through high school and college - the years I really began to cling to my faith and deepen my relationship with my Savior. As I write this, I can't fight back the tears thinking of President Hinckley. I loved him. He was always so gentle in the way he talked and always had something good to say. He just always made me feel like I was doing alright. Things will work out. To just try to be a little better and everything will be ok. I want to echo his words - that God has a <u>plan for you</u>. I know this post is about motherhood, but this quote was directed to <u>all women</u> - everywhere:</span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">"You are second to none. You are daughters of God. There has come to you as your birthright something beautiful and sacred and divine. Never forget that. Your Eternal Father is the great Master of the universe. He rules over all, but He also will listen to your prayers as His daughter and hears you as you speak with Him. He will answer your prayers. He will not leave you alone."</span></b> </blockquote>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I want to share one of my favorite talks on motherhood, by M. Russell Ballard (<i>Quorum of the Twelve Apostles</i>), given during the April General Conference in 2008. I know we are all in different life situations - married, single, divorced, widowed, young, old - but there is always <i>something</i> you can relate to in any talk from an apostle. In this particular talk, Elder Ballard directs his talk towards young mothers, which I guess is why it's so special and helpful to me right now. This talk holds a quote I see all over Pinterest about motherhood: <b>"There is no role in life more essential and more eternal than that of motherhood."</b> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The whole thing is amazing, so I encourage you to read it all, but I'll sum up the 2 of the 4 questions he ask and answers in his talk - directed to the mother and the father {<i>the last 2 questions are for the children and the church, so still read the whole talk - it's awesome!</i>}. Thanks for letting me share this with you!</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I am so grateful for my role as a mother, and I appreciate it every day. Yes - my life forever changed the day I became a mom - but I really can't remember what my life was before I had my Ava. I'm grateful for my faith and the leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, who are always there to say something uplifting and remind me that, despite mistakes, trials and challenges - I'm never alone. There is always a way. I'm still doing OK.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Thanks for letting me share some thoughts on motherhood with you. I hope you will take time to show a mother you love her - whether it's your own, someone else's, a friend, a grandma, someone that has passed on - or just reflect on the beautiful life we each have been given. It's such a blessing.</span><br />

I have 10 ideas for gifts that include free printables, which makes them simple & easy! You don't need to spend a fortune -- sometimes a simple, hand written note is all it takes to tug on someone's heart strings. I hope these ideas inspire you to share some motherly love this Sunday. Take care!</span><br />

Guest Post by Kristy of Salty Mess<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Morning ladies! My name is Kristy and I am the creator and content writer of the blog </span><a href="http://thesaltymessblog.com/" style="font-size: x-large;" target="_blank">Salty Mess</a><span style="font-size: large;">. I am very honored to be taking over Daniela's blog for the day to share with you some easy tips on making your casual outfit look not-so-casual! I think everyone can agree that there is a universal feeling to want to look cute and feel comfortable simultaneously. Well, I have found that if you follow a few simple tips, then you can achieve this with any laid back outfit.</span><br />
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">1. <b>Make your outfit POP</b>: Try doing this by simply adding a striking color to your outfit or some chunky jewelry. This will make your casual look stand out. Never is a t-shirt and jeans look boring with this technique.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">2. <b>Makeup</b>: Your makeup can do wonders with any outfit. Because whatever you do with your face can change the whole look, try to have your make up look a little more clean and chic and this can definitely make it seem like it took you twice as long to get ready. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">3. <b>Layering</b>: This technique is fun! If you have a hard time figuring out what extra things you can add to your outfit and not make it look too messy, just follow your color pattern and chances are you will just do fine! Grab a bag, jacket, beanie, something to tie around your waist, have socks coming out of your shoes, etc. The possibilities are endless.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Happy Monday! Guess what? We moved last Saturday! Well, not <i>everything</i>, but we loaded up a 26' U-Haul and moved most everything out of our house and into a storage unit. It's so weird to see basically your entire life all piled up in a 10x15 cement space. We will move the rest this Saturday (and by "the rest" I mean just our beds!). My husband is gone almost this entire week for a work trip, so I'm kind of on my own to finish up. The appraisal on our house is Wednesday, and there are a few minor repairs from the home inspection and maybe a couple more from the appraisal, since it's FHA. Selling a house is definitely an adventure, and I truly hope we never have to move again. This week is going to be CRAZY - I just know it - but I'm super grateful to have my little Avabean to hang out with the whole time and make time for reading her new book from Grandpa's trip to England ("Peppa the Pig Meets the Queen") and eating lots of Chick-Fil-A, of course. :) What are you up to this week? Anything wild and crazy or exciting? Or just the same ol' same ol'? Which is truly a blessing, too!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Today, I've got a fun wreath tutorial for you that includes my 2 craft faves: POLKA DOTS + BURLAP. I could probably do a roundup of polka dot + burlap crafts from my own portfolio and fill up an entire blog post - I've done so many! Hopefully you aren't tired of polka dots + burlap yet. ;) I made this wreath for Ava's 1st Birthday last December. It may have stayed on my front door through Christmas, and New Year's AND Valentine's Day. My > St. Patrick's Day Wreath < was the only thing that finally brought it down, ha ha. This little ol' wreath is very simple & easy (<i>classic Put A Bird On It, right?!</i>). My fave part? The pink balloons pretending to be bows! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">You'll need a <b>wreath form</b> {I liked this straw one, because I didn't have to worry about metal or green styrofoam showing through}, <b>balloons</b>, <b>polka dot burlap wire ribbon</b>, <b>floral pins</b></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I used one floral pin to pin down the end of the ribbon. You could use hot glue, too, if you don't plan to switch out your ribbon ever to reuse your wreath {<i>I took this one apart to make my St. Patrick's Day Wreath!</i>}. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I wanted to share this photo, because it took a few tries before I found a technique to get my balloons to look like bows for the banner. Crafting isn't easy! Luckily, balloons are cheap, because I wasted several cutting them...blowing them up...and tying them, before I found a style I liked.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Simply take one balloon and tie it in a knot. That's it! It looks like a cute pink birthday balloon bow! Hot glue them in position on your wreath.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">For the banner, I used a specialty paper that was a thin burlap/canvas material. I cut the letters using my Silhouette Cameo. You could purchase letters already cut out or just trace them on paper and cut! If you craft a lot, I will <i>always</i> recommend investing in a good quality cutting machine -- aka -- the Silhouette Cameo. Before packing up everything to move, I seriously used mine almost every day {<a href="http://iputabirdonit.blogspot.com/search/label/Silhouette%20Cameo" target="_blank">click HERE for more Silhouette ideas!</a>}. I then cut out two mini pennant flags out of sparkly gold paper {yep - with my Cameo!}. I just used hot glue to attach the 'A - V - A' and the pennants to bakers twine, which I then tied around the balloon bows {this way, I could switch out the banner easily without committing by using hot glue}. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Voila! So easy, right?! And so adorable. I mean, POLKA DOTS & BURLAP?! Swoon.</span></div>

People may have thought I was a little weird for going "all out" for Ava's birthday party. I designed & made my own invitations, had pink & gold themed cupcakes, her wreath, themed decor, and a DELICIOUS hot cocoa bar {<a href="http://iputabirdonit.blogspot.com/2013/12/hot-cocoa-bar-for-avas-first-birthday.html" target="_blank">with the BEST crockpot cocoa EVER, recipe HERE</a>}. But I'm really glad I did. This little kid is our greatest joy & blessing, and my husband and I said that night, after everyone was gone & the tot was in bed, that we knew miss Ava <b>felt special and knew today was different</b>. I'm excited to plan her next birthday when she is more aware and understands everything that's happening!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
Thanks for hanging out with ME on your Monday! If you have any fave kid's birthday parties, you should link them up in the comments. I'd love to PIN them to my Party Board on Pinterest! Have the best day!</div>

Today is my very first contributor post - ever! Not just a guest post, but an actual C-O-N-T-R-I-B-U-T-O-R post, which means I'm a recurring lady on someone else's blog. I'm REALLY excited and kind of nervous at the same time. The blog is <a href="http://prettyprovidence.com/" target="_blank">Pretty Providence</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I've followed Jessica and Sarah's blog for a while now, and really love it. Their style and tastes are super similar to mine. I've thought about being a contributor on another blog before, and have even been asked to be one, but I've never felt like the timing was right or found that one special blog that really fit ME and MY style. Pretty Providence does that to a 'T' - so when I read they were calling for contributors, I didn't even hesitate to apply. Jessica and Sarah were amazingly nice enough to love my blog and really want me to be a contributor! I'm just so excited to share my love of simple & easy crafts with others. I'll be posting once a month over there as a <b>Fashion DIY</b> contributor, and I'll give you all a reminder the day I do, so you can check out what I have to share!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Today, I am sharing a cheap & easy tutorial for making your own <b>Anchor Tee</b>. I just LOVE mine and wore it to SNAP! {a blog conference here in Salt Lake City}. I even got complimented on it from a huge blogger that I totally {heart}, so it kind of made my day. I hope you'll visit <a href="http://prettyprovidence.com/" target="_blank">Pretty Providence</a> and check out my first contributor post {<i>there may even be a FREE PRINTABLE for you!</i>}. Have the best day!</span><br />
