I must say Moms inspire me!

I'm truly amazed at the creativity some of the ladies I know have. The blog world is so funny.. I've made friends through this interesting following, and feel as if I truly have great insight as to who they are and how amazing they can be!

Some ladies I've met once or twice before through mutual friends, some only in passing. But they still inspire me! Some I know through old high school friends who I've unfortunately not had enough contact with, but again.. The blog world keeps us connected!

I'm so amazed at the creativeness that some of these wonderful ladies hold. I've always dreamt about being a designer.. But I think that ideally I'm too cheap to follow this path. Maybe that's why I now do nails.. A little bit of design work in my own little way.

I look at this house that we now live in and besides being entirely in love and beyond thankful that we've had the luck along the way to finally be here I always see room for improvement.

I think my husband would kill me if I mentioned yet one more time something I'd like to fix or do! Deep down he hates these ideas and whims I come up with! But... Thanks to some great mamas I'm always reminded perhaps I can do it myself!

I get deep gratitude when I look at something I've accomplished for my kids or my household. I love to make my kids birthday cakes, I love to fully hand make every part of their parties... Even if its not picture perfect, I know that I did it myself and that makes me happy.

I truly enjoy just the little things I can add!

After someone clued me into a cute little etsy photo, I figured I could do my next little project again.. On my own..

Fabric Poms for baby no. 3s nursery.

Now.. This nursery is half completely out of my comfort zone. If anyone has been to my house you'll know it's alllllll white! White walls, white blinds, white curtains, white tiles, white moldings, white carpet! White white white! This came after living in two houses that we feel we made bad color choices on... Not really bad... But not the best.

So the nursery has a color that in actually have never truly liked.. Ever! Yellow!

Yellow and Grey seem to be the in color scheme these days.. And I will admit, I'm in love!

Etsy and pinterst have such cute ideas that I wish I could replicate.. But my true interior designer isn't nearly crafty enough to pull any of it off..

But these fabric poms were definitely easy enough for me!

I wish I had taken step by step photos as a few have asked how I did them.. But.. I didn't.. Maybe in the future I will remember those things!

Each pom cost me less than $5 to make.. Well worth it in my mind!

All you truly need is fabric, cut into circles.. I used a yard in each pom. I made my inner ball out of paper towel and wrapped it in packing tape as I wanted them to be super light! (and cheap)

I glued all the circles to the ball, hung with ribbon and voila! Seriously easy!!
