Create Textured [French] Canvas Art

Thought I would share a little French conversation I had with a Frenchman today. 

• Me: "Bonjour, mon nom est Bec, et votre nom est?" This reads, Hello, my name is Bec, and your name is? 
• French Guy:  "Mon nom est Français Frank, et vous êtes un Américain stupide!"
• Me: "I love your french accent, it just sounds so..."
• Husband: "I only took a year of French, but I think he just called us stupid Americans.
• Me: "Ahhh..."

DIY Fabric Design: Rubber Stamps

I have had the craziest week, trying to prepare for the MBA to begin next week via Internet while still traveling around the Western US and beyond. I think this year of my life has moved more quickly than any other, regardless that it had the same number of days on a calendar. I'm still without my own computer, since mine crashed two weeks ago. Because we have been on vacation, we've been unable to get it fixed or to shop for a new one. Which has me wondering, what's your favorite blog computer? I need something that does pic and video, and something fast because heaven knows, I have no patience.

DIY Fabric Softener Recipe & Printable

Hola, my earth friendly DIY'ers! After inventing an all natural wood stain, I started thinking about other products I could improve upon, things that would be kinder to Mother Earth. Here in Utah, we suffer with hard water issues because our H20 is way mineral rich. When I lived in Boston, laundry detergent was a constant source of grey water.

Hey Girls! If you've been keeping up with my social media feeds (FB, Tweet, Instagram), then you know the hubs and I are driving cross country from corner to corner of the US! That's Washington state to Florida, baby! We hit the open road a week ago and our first stop was Flaming Gorge. It's a gorgeous body of water nestled in red canyons. Puppers caught themselves a wild salmon...well, Zack caught it an puppers smelled it before it was sent back to its watery home!

How to Paint Vintage Fans

I am so excited to share Zack and my latest adventure with y'all! I've already discussed my totally rad wood stain, but I've other news. I am beyond elation to share with you all my recent TRAVEL CROSS-COUNTRY meeting local artisans and looking for elements to add to my brand! Here's the deets- we began our journey in Salt Lake City UT, where I made good use of my broom pic and honored my promise to let my broom carry me where it may. Thus far my travels lead me to Flaming Gorge, where Z and I will relax and boat around the massive lake! From there, we will go to Washington to meet Artisans and while Z is asleep, I will whisk us away to the Olympic coast where we can make a pack with Jacob's tribe. After all... I am team Jacob ;-) Then, I will turn around and travel all the way to FLORIDA! I'm not going to Mickey Mouse World, I'm on a mission to find old school French glass ware for my product.  

Blog Crush: "In the Fun Lane's" Dreamy Kitchen

Have you ever had a day where you feel like you're watching a life through a scrambled TV signal? For those of you who grew up in the 80's and before-- perhaps you remember white noise? And how it was comprised of thousands of black dots scrambling around, all the while your speakers blasted the most irritating noise. And it was all you could do to change the channel so you didn't have to hear it one minute longer.

Yeah.

That was pretty much my day.
