The end result of using gold leaf on something creates a pretty gilded look – but leaf paper is one of the trickiest craft supplies to work with!!

Hand-Painted Bead Necklace Craft Class

Z Style – Jeans
I am jealous of my toddler’s new jeans. Ok, let me take a step back. I remember when my niece was very little she always had the best jeans. Turns out my sister always got her denim at Lucky – it’s cute, it wears well, and lasts through baby and toddler crazy. This Christmas, myContinue reading “Z Style – Jeans”
