It’s that time again! The new Fresh Cut SVG Bundle is here and it’s a total Fiesta. I’m loving all the files from this month’s bundle, you guys! Those banners! The cacti! And those pinatas?! So darn cute. Every time this bundle comes out, I’m always so impressed with all these ladies mad design skills. You can check out the whole bundle right here!

The designs I contributed to the bundle this time around are these two hand lettered Fiesta ’til Siesta and Let’s Taco ’bout it. When Aubrey saw these designs, she asked if she could have a shirt made out of them. I can’t seem to say no to her. Every time we go shopping lately, I am buying plain shirts to add some fun designs onto for her. I don’t blog about them all (we’ve done a unicorn, firetruck, lamb and I’ve promised a castle). And I made Calder one this time around too- but can I just tell you how hard it is to get a photo of a baby that is on the move ALL. THE. TIME. They may be a bit blurry, but they’re cute… right?! ;)

Making shirts for the kiddos also gives me an excuse to pull out some of the fun HTV… like that flocked orange and those glitter HTVs. Since I’m pretty basic with my crafting, I don’t pull these out too often I thought I’d give a few tips on these materials in this post!

If you are looking for tips on how to take an SVG file and cut it out… you can check out this post right here for details on that. Just keep in mind that you need to click that check box to mirror your image when you are cutting out heat transfer material.

Okay… so tips, tips! The stripflock heat transfer vinyl I’ve worked with a little bit before (Standout Vinyl sent me some samples to test out so I’m working my way through the brighter colours!). I really do love how soft it is and have been really, really happy with it for other applications. Like this shirt or these pillows or these bags. I’ve found that it definitely needs more time that is suggested under the heat and this time? I learned that it’s NOT great for stretchy material. Regular HTV has enough give in it that even though it’s not make for stretchy materials like baby onesies… it works. And doesn’t peel until after about 6 washes (which is pretty regular if you are using an iron- you should get twice that with a heat press or EasyPress). BUT stripflock? I got one. The onesie got wet, it stretched taking it off and we had corners peel up. NOT ideal. So I’d definitely only recommend the stripflock on a less stretchy material.

For the glitter heat transfer vinyl, I’d only used it once in the past before (on these shirts) and I could remember that it’s really difficult to see the lines when you’re weeding. With all the texture from the glitter, the lines blend in so well so weeding (especially intricate details) can be a pain. Using a light pad (like the Cricut Bright Pad) is a great way to see those lines really clearly! Just make sure you bend the material a little bit and the light will shine through the material to show you where it’s been cut. Other than that- it’s really easy to work with and doesn’t seem to behave much differently than regular iron on material. I love that it’s warm peel (you can peel the backing off while it’s still hot) because I’m so impatient!

Well, those are my tips for you! Now… hop over and check out that bundle before the discount price on it goes away!

Let’s talk about coffee! This is my coffee ‘st Let’s talk about coffee! This is my coffee ‘station’ and the second photo is my dads! I’m talking aaaall about them over on YT today!
Also... see how nice that fresh silicone looks?! 😉 IYKYK
The hallway is finally finished and I’m so stink The hallway is finally finished and I’m so stinking happy! 

It’s felt like such a long time coming for such a small space. Since we moved in 2.5 years ago, this space has seen new doors and hardware, new trim, new floors... twice😅, we changed the boob light to a pot light and I hated it and now it’s got the most beautiful flush mount fixture I’m in love with (thanks @mymitzi!). It finally got some fresh paint and now frames on walls and last but not least... After this weekend, the new floors look like they were here all along (no door jamb gaps!) which was the last thing really bugging me since our flood last year. 

All this to say that home takes time and sometimes getting it right might take a couple tries. Also- the spaces we don’t really think about (hallways) can totally help a house feel like home with some love (and family photos 🥰)
ps. I partnered with #mymitzi to create a tiktok for This makeover... are you following me over there yet?! I’d love if you popped over and said hi!
It’s done! It works! And I’m calling it a grea It’s done! It works! And I’m calling it a great use of my afternoon the other day. Did you catch the stories? These projects both cost me under $10 by using pieces I already had in my home (yay for scraps!) and one package of drawer slides).
You can find the full video about these two kitchen organization projects over on YouTube in collaboration with my friend @love_create_celebrate and her #scrapsmademodern challenge! But for now... I’m rejoicing this coffee maker is off my counter for good 🎉
How’s your January going? Full speed or are you How’s your January going? Full speed or are you taking it a bit slow too? 

I’m not going to lie, I’m easing into this new year thing pretty slowly. All my decorations are still up (we always leave them up til Ukrainian Christmas which is later this week) and I I’ve yet to respond to my emails since before Christmas 😅
I’m enjoying the slowness of it all.
Happy Christmas Eve from our fam to yours 🥰 Happy Christmas Eve from our fam to yours 🥰
Yes, I made the paper bag snowflakes too. Have you Yes, I made the paper bag snowflakes too. Have you? 😅
This year has been one of a kind and I know so man This year has been one of a kind and I know so many people who are taking this year as the push they’ve been waiting for to start a side hustle, start an new career altogether or to just get creative about how they’re making money. So today I’m excited to partner with @kregjig to share some rad projects to make and sell this year! 
Like this rolling storage system I made for my office, that rad dollhouse and the gorgeous bath toy storage. All of these projects are things that I’d personally love to buy for our family and look like they’d be a great return on your time making them! And yes, all of them use #Kreg tools to make them easy to assemble and quick to make! Plus, they’re having a great sale on right now with deals on their K4 and K5 jigs, Rip-Cut and even a hardware jig bundle! There’s never been a better time to get your workshop set up!  #sponsored
Just a peaceful moment and then a real life moment Just a peaceful moment and then a real life moment for ya 🙃 
My #holidayhometour is on the blog and YouTube (I’ll put links in my stories) as part of the #seasonalsimplicity holiday home tour series. I’ll share those too so you don’t miss any!
My holiday home tour will be up tomorrow, but for My holiday home tour will be up tomorrow, but for tonight... I’m just enjoying the lights. And possibly a hallmark movie with some more custom order lettering 😅 what are your plans?
