We've Moved!

Catch Up

Life has been busy lately. There's nothing major happening or any kind of event, but it seems like every night I have a long to do list that I'm trying to get done. I'm sure most of you have a...

Recipe: Almond White Chocolate Truffles

These almond white chocolate truffles are perfect for a quick Valentine's day treat for anyone who loves some sweet goodness. I'm a white chocolate lover (even though it's technically not...

Camera Valentine Card

This time last year my blog was tiny. Okay, even more tiny than it is now. Like, I think there was 10 readers. Despite basically no one reading this thing, I made a free printable Valentine's Day...

Currently: 1-13

[tshirt via hello apparel] Watching: we recently figured out how to get our Netflix over to the US version (so tricky, I know) so I've been watching the last season of Glee. Also, after hearing how...

DIY Stitched Card

I'll be the first to admit that I don't make Valentine's Day cards for the peeps in my life. I only give a card to Jason and he prefers a funny card from the store. Actually, I really like those...

DIY Valentine Onesie

This is Liberty's first Valentine's Day so of COURSE I had to make her something. She's either going to love that I will always make her stuff or grow to hate it. Either way I'll probably still...

My Chalkboard

I got a chalkboard a few weeks ago to hang in our kitchen area. It's been hanging there so empty & just waiting to be drawn on. Just before the weekend I took advantage of one of Libby's naps and...

Friday Faves: Free Valentine Fonts

1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6 // 7 // 8 // 9 // 10 I'm hooking y'all up with some fun Valentine's Day fonts for this Friday Fave. Because we're all secretly (or not so secretly) font freaks and these...

Why I Hate Facebook.

That's a pretty grumpy title, isn't it? There is just one simple reason why I hate Facebook: people from high school. Seriously! I do not want to reconnect with people I know from when I was 16. I...

Just For You - A Valentine's Printable

I like decorations. I do. I'm just not into holidays decorations all that much. Don't get me wrong - I was all over Christmas! My tree was covered in handmade ornaments this year and there was even...

DIY Stamped Placemats

I was hunting around for some place mats a while back for our table but couldn't find anything I liked. So like the good crafty person I am, I just decided to make some. These hand-stamped...

Friday Faves: Anthro

I don't think this week's Friday Faves needs much explanation. Just things I'm currently favouriting from Anthropologie, the place where it looks like it was handmade but costs 10 times as much. I...

DIY Gold Vase

I love a simple, quick DIY that comes together from things you already have. I keep a lot of air fresheners & oil infusers in my house to keep things smelling freshy fresh. I was using a small...

Letters to Liberty

Every day I can't believe how much Liberty is changing & growing. She's really becoming her own little person already - it's amazing. I never want to forget these moments so I take a lot of photos...

Fabulously Smitten + A Giveaway!

Hello Free Spirit Reigns Readers. I am so excited to have a guest post over here today! I’m Debbie and I blog over at Fabulously Smitten. My blog has been a great opportunity for me to share new...

Friday Faves: Punk Goes Crunk & Pop

I'm not usually a fan of covers or remixes of songs. I'm stubborn and just like things the way they are. If I'm going to stray from the original it really has to blow me away. Like...

DIY Glitter Button Earrings

I'm still loving the glitter trend that's happening right now. Of course that means I needed to make glitter earrings. Make some for you, for your BFF, your sister, whoever you think needs a little...

Etsy Love: Little Hip Squeaks

Are you seeing all that adorableness up that is up there? FOR REAL. I'm dying over pretty much everything that Little Hip Squeaks has in their Etsy shop. Can we just talk about those absolutely...

24 Before 24

This past year has seriously just slipped by me and I can't believe I turned 23. I know it's still young but every year I'm always surprised I'm having another birthday. I don't think I ever saw...

Cliche: My Birth Story

Despite the fact that I find sharing birth stories to be a bit cliche here in the blog world, I still feel compelled to share it with the world. Mostly because I had such a positive & amazing...

The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery Monthly Woodland Sampler

Over the last year or so I've come to realize my love & adoration for cross stitching. It's probably my numero uno needle craft that I like to do. Embroidery would be tied with it actually. I love...

Recipe: Salted Caramel Pretzel Thumbprint Cookies

These cookies will change your life. If you like sweet & salty, then you absolutely must make these nuggets of heaven. Seriously. They're super easy, taste aweseome and look pretty impressive when...

Stop Buying Textbooks!

It's been a few years since I've gone to university (not because I graduated, because I quit going, ha), but a large number of my friends and acquainted are still students. I am only 23, so it's to...

Liberty: 3 months

How has it been 3 months already? I mean, seriously! All those moms are completely right when they warn you how fast times flies by when you have a little chubby love muffin. I can't believe we...

See Ya 2012!

I say this every year, but I still can't believe that the year is over! It feels like it just zoomed on by without stopping to say hey. The past year has been so incredibly full for me that I can't...

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone! I know I haven't been very active in the last week on here. My little turkey came down with her first cold this week and pretty much needed all my attention. I wanted to...

Almond Chai Cookies

Every Christmas I like to do holiday baking. When I say I like it, I really mean that I freakishly love it. As in giving people 6 different varieties of cookies and I start baking in November. I...

A Birthday Giveaway!

(via) Friends, this is the most wonderful time of the year. Yes, because Christmas is a mere 8 days away, but mostly because it's a mere 7 days until the glorious birthday of yours truly. It's...
