How to make party garlands and hats

August 23, 2010 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

In case you weren’t around for this post from earlier this week about the sweet little party I put together for my daughter’s third birthday, head over there to check out the full spread. As I mentioned in that post, I rarely put a party together that doesn’t entail some goodies from Lettering Delights. I…

As easy as…

August 19, 2010 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

As I mentioned in my post yesterday about my outdoor bench update, until this week, my Fourth of July cushions were still hanging out on my front stoop. Bad, right? I had had in mind to make a new, season-neutral set to take their place, but it took until the bench was freshly painted and…

Front porch bench update

August 19, 2010 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

I was the lucky recipient of a darling little outdoor bench from one of my dearest friends a couple of summers back, but I recently started noticing that the wear and tear of the seasons had taken its toll on its appearance. That’s putting it lightly.  In poor blogging form, I neglected to take a…

August 16, 2010 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

…Ice Cream! This summer’s heat can only be summed up with one word: hellacious. Seeing triple-digit temperatures for each and every day in the extended forecast no longer causes me to bat an eye. My sweet Miss Charlotte is a firecracker, and it couldn’t possibly be more appropriate that her birthday happens to coincide with…

A remedy for summer bored-itis!

July 13, 2010 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

Create a fun lineup of puppets straight from a Picasso painting with your children this week!  Let me show you how. Let me preface this post by stating what is most likely the obvious: In a household with three children aged 4 and under, we eat a lot of macaroni and cheese. And I do…

Fabric Calla Lilies

July 12, 2010 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

I love to create wearable pieces that are sophisticated, yet spunky. And, as I’m sure y’all are starting to see, I just can’t function without a healthy dose of color. 😉 Looking at my calla lily wreath hanging in my kitchen a couple of weeks back, it dawned on me those flowers would really pop…

DIY Pillow Forms

June 29, 2010 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

Two things you might not already know about me: #1) I like to save money, but I like to do it in style.#2) When I don’t feel like hauling my crew over the river and through the woods for close to a half hour each way, my only option for craft supplies is Super Wal-mart.It…

Patriotic Outdoor Pillows

June 28, 2010 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

Patriotic Outdoor Pillows

    Matt and I are total nerds when it comes to history. We love the History Channel. We read history books by choice. We actually named all of Jack’s stuffed animals when he was little after American presidents. (Which explains why his best buddy, a stuffed blue puppy, is named Abe instead of Fido.)…

Wire Pea in a Pod Necklace

June 22, 2010 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

I have been wanting for ages a necklace to remind me of my three little sweet peas. I first fell in love with this Pea in a Pod necklace from Red Envelope right after Charlotte was born, but since Miss Cecily joined the mix after she did, I am glad I didn’t invest in the…
