A Cultivated Life: Christmas Crafting

http://acultivatedlife.blogspot.com/2010/12/christmas-crafting.html

Monday, December 20, 2010. Decorating for Christmas is a big deal at our house. Not because we go all out, or because we buy tons of new things every year, but because Husband and I both enjoy it and we especially love building on what we've done in years previous. This week I found a great little tutorial for Crochet Chain Christmas Trees at Seams of Life. This card tree. A simple branch from the back yard, a vase we already had, and some binder clips and tape and voila! Monday, December 20, 2010. I am ...

A Cultivated Life: Welcome Back

http://acultivatedlife.blogspot.com/2010/12/welcome-back.html

Monday, December 20, 2010. Long time no see, blog world. It's been basically 9 months since I have touched this blog. Don't worry, I have thought about you many, many times. But life got in the way, and the blog was pushed to the bottom of the list. So, what has happened in the past 9 months? Another first at our house. first baby is on the way! This has been the biggest change in the past nine months, and probably the biggest reason why the blog has fallen aside. Mama's got work to do! I am a suburban w...

A Cultivated Life: Matthew's Baptism Quilt

http://acultivatedlife.blogspot.com/2010/02/matthews-baptism-quilt.html

Monday, February 15, 2010. With every quilt I complete, I learn more and more and the process gets easier. I ironed open EVERY SINGLE SEAM on this puppy. Each and every one. And guess what, the quilt came together much neater and "stitching in the ditch" to quilt it was very simple. This one also has the best binding yet. all those hours of hand stitching that beautiful blue edge really paid off. Monday, February 15, 2010. February 15, 2010 at 11:09 AM.

A Cultivated Life: Pillows

http://acultivatedlife.blogspot.com/2010/03/pillows.html

Sunday, March 7, 2010. It has been a hectic, frenzied time at our house. Husband and I are making the leap into home ownership and when I say leap, I mean LEAP. One day of house hunting set the ball rolling for a super quick chain of events. We're still in the middle of it, but if everything works out, we'll be in our new house in early April! We have had a few nice additions to the current living room recently. First up is this gorgeous pillow (and it's mate) made by Amanda. For the BTRS swap. The pillo...

As the men were leaving Jesus, Peter said to him, "Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters- one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah." (He did not know what he was saying.) Luke 9:33. Hey, as you can see, no one's home. Find my new blog here. Thanks for stopping by. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

A Cultivated Life: Waste Not, Want Not

http://acultivatedlife.blogspot.com/2010/02/waste-not-want-not.html

Friday, February 19, 2010. Waste Not, Want Not. WNWN' is a total cliche; but it has definite weight when I hear it. This plate is from the collection of the St. Louis Art Museum, and it is 300-400 years old (can't remember dates), so we know that the phrase has been around for awhile. Do I think that 400 year old wisdom has helped us? At our house, the area that plagues me the most is food. Too bad I don't have a set of WNWN dishes to keep this thought in the forefront! What do I want for us? I am a subu...

A Cultivated Life: Before and After: Living Room Drapes

http://acultivatedlife.blogspot.com/2011/01/before-and-after-living-room-drapes.html

Monday, January 3, 2011. Before and After: Living Room Drapes. I finished a work in progress this week- yea! When we bought this house, the main level was painted beige and we had these lovely (also beige) linen-look drapes in the living room. Here's what the house looked like when we moved in. And do you know how expensive drapery fabric is? So as of a few weeks ago we had grey walls and grey drapes. Except now I had another problem- shrinkage. Major drape shrinkage. Look at how terrible that is! But th...

A Cultivated Life: Pizza Delivery?

http://acultivatedlife.blogspot.com/2010/02/pizza-delivery.html

Sunday, February 14, 2010. Note to self: if you are hungry, do not browse your Flickr photostream, as there are photos of Imo's Pizza. I made sure to photograph our delicious lunch when we went during our St. Louis trip in December. Mmmmm. Provel-y, saucy, square-y goodness. I am literally salivating at the thought of this pizza. I'll just let Wikipedia explain. What all this is about. In the meantime, I might give Imo's a call to see how big their delivery radius is. Sunday, February 14, 2010.
