I love finding local online stores that have original and reasonable items. I came across Stowe & So towards the end of last year, and I immediately added some of their items to my Christmas wishlist! I love my little piggy cereal bowl, and my “deskpet” calendar brightens up my desk at work. I also…
Last week I shared my weathered photo frame project which I completed with our new Dremel Micro. Now it’s time for my second Mother’s Day-inspired project – and I have a Dremel Micro to give away to a lucky reader! When I heard about all the different functions that the Dremel Micro has to offer,…
