Thank you for missing us. :)

Christmas came and went, and the two of us continued to be crazy busy. C-R-A-Z-Y busy. What we intended to be a brief intermission for the holiday season suddenly turned into a month, then two, and now...it's the middle of May! Honestly, we kind of just thought nobody would notice that we were gone for a little bit. Our "little bit" turned into a "whole lot." And some of you DID notice! We are so amazed at all the emails we got from you lovely ladies out there, telling us we were missed and that we needed to come back! Oh goodness, thank you for being so nice!

So...we are on our way back. :) In the next month, we will do a better job of being consistent at our posting. We have some home stuff, some party stuff, some just plain pretty stuff---all to share with y'all. Thank you for being patient, and those of you who've stuck around----thanks for waiting on us. We appreciate it so very much.

And, while you are waiting for us to finally get with the program, you can check out a project from last year here. You might enjoy whipping up some spring baskets for your patio before it gets too hot. :)

(You can see more on those baskets here)

See you soon!
