Tutorials for 3 simple DIY Yard Games: Yahtzee, Dominoes, and Jenga. From measurements to tips and quick reference guides, I’ve got you covered. This weekend we hosted our first barbecue of the season (woohoo!) and the weather was SO beautiful. We actually came inside after a few hours because the kids weren’t used to the …
Did you have a nice Easter? I hope so… I, myself ate WAY too much chocolate. I also think I have become an addict. Before I was a chocoholic… I have been for a long time, but a chocolate addict brings things to a brand new level. The Easter egg sales has been kind …
If you read Monday’s post, you’ve already seen a sneak peak of our bedroom… but it hardly counted- this definitely counts! This DIY Copper Pipe Bunting was crazy easy to make, I bought the pipe to make it probably a month ago and left it sitting for a day that I had enough time. Turns …
*This post contains sponsored links- as always, I’d never write about a product I didn’t 100% love (full disclosure)* 2015 Has been flying by, friends.

Things are finally settling down for us- Easter weekend was a blur of fun and chocolate. We had lots of family and friends in town and had fun visiting with them, we even managed to sneak in a little baby shower! But, thankfully, things have calmed down a bit and I’m getting back into the …
I am feeling a little behind on decorating eggs- I’m not sure if our family just does a little bit less for Easter or if it’s the difference between Canada and the States, but I’m so surprised by all the egg hunts and Easter craziness I’m seeing on my Instagram feed! You guys are SO …
So, I’m sure you’ve heard the terrible, no good news… Target Canada is closing all their stores, we officially have until early next week and then it’s gone for good. *sigh* it was a good run. Of course I’ve been closely monitoring all their sales (who isn’t?) and last week I snagged these clear plastic …
Do you ever have an idea, and you’re unsure of how it will turn out, so you hold off making it just incase you end up wasting the supplies? That was this Moss Framed Chalkboard- but am I ever glad that I went ahead with it! It was a bit of an experiment, I wasn’t …
I’m slowly sharing the backload of projects I’ve created for some wonderful sites out there (and somehow forgot to share with you lovely readers!). This DIY exposed zipper pouch (my first ever zipper!) was created for the lovely ladies at Pretty Providence, and even though it’s been months- I’m still using this guy on …
Oh, friends- I have a treat for you today (pun intended). When I had my reader survey this year, you spoke up and asked for more recipes. I’m thrilled to introduce the newest contributor to Lemon Thistle- Meet Kirsten from Treat Yourself Sweeter! She’ll be popping in once a month with a recipe for you …
Since Saint Patrick Day was yesterday, I figure it’s time to dive into Easter! One of the perks of blogging is that I can get into all the holidays… and way before everyone else without it being ridiculous. But in all honesty, I don’t know if I need the excuse of blogging, I’ve already gathered …
