Urban Texture Stamps

I've been meaning to write a review on these stamps for a while now. Of course, we all know presentation is half of the fun when receiving something you've ordered. I knew I needed to step it up a notch with UrbanTexture so I began to hunt for affordable custom stamps. This can be OVERWHELMING …

Urban Texture Update // Urban Baby

I've launched a new line for Urban Texture's shop called Urban Baby. I can't help but get overwhelmed with inspiration when my children hit new stages of life.. and even though my little boy hasn't made his way earth-side yet, I've already begun making swaddles, gowns, and teething toys. I've decided to continue in that …

Gathre Mat Review

So far.. BEST MAT EVER. I'd been drooling over these mats for months before I finally took the plunge and bought one.. and let me tell you, I have not been disappointed!   I use this mat, ALL OF THE TIME. Especially now that the Fall weather is quickly approaching. We have had so many …

New Baby “Must Haves”

I've officailly hit the 30 week mark with this little human growing inside of me, and I've just realized, I never officially announced this pregnancy on Dreamer & Curly!   SO, here it is! I'm PREGNANT! It's a boy and his name will be the same as Curly's, but we will call him Pip for …

Macrame Necklace Tutorial

Playing around with different designs, I made this necklace that I'm honestly in love with. Especially for the summer/fall transition time.      Macrame is HUGE right now, and I totally understand why. That subtle bohemian texture that it adds to an otherwise basic area, without being too colorful or overwhelming. It's simply texture. And …

I made this // Mid-Century Inspired Nightstand

I've always loved trying my hand at carpentry and it's been quite a while since I have attempted a wooden project. So I found this mid-century inspired nightstand tutorial. Now even though I try to do everything myself, Curly is always in my corner helping with the table saw and such. I found the tutorial …

The Grace to Grow

  I'm not sure where this post is headed. Its basically a large ramble—but I want to share it.. Because it's a part of life.  Real life. Not the pretty photos sorted eloquently on Instagram, or the clever sentence worth retweeting on Twitter. Or even the "whoa is me" encouraging monologues you pinned on Pinterest. …

Lately Life // Baking With Ari

Rainy day tunes, comfy sweats, and cookies. Tell me honestly.   What could be better? Baking those cookies with my favorite darling girl, that's what!   Life has been a subtle kind of busy. We've got plans everyday, but it's stuff like cleaning out our storage building or renewing my license... So today is exactly …

Call me Crazy.

I've been SO TORN between two ideas. Trying to decide which one would be the most profitable and which one has my inspiration. But after much worrying and rambling to Curly. Finally.  I've chosen to do both.  Most people discourage having two businesses, claiming one will suffer and neither one will reach their full potental, …

Lately Life

Hey friends! So I haven't written one of these posts in a while, and I thought it would be a good catch up on our life as of the last few weeks. Recently, Curly has been sick and I always find it funny how motivated I am after sickness leaves the home. Ever since he …
