You Stateroom Ears are wonderful. We are going on a cruise on Dec 29 and will be celebrating New Years on board. I attempted download the bow tie to accompany to Top Hat and the link was broken. Is the bow tie still available?
I HAVE LOOKED EVERYWHERE FOR COILS OF REED TO MAKE ME A TOBACCO BASHET AND HAVE HAD NO LUCK AT ALL AT FINDING ANY.. I TRIED MICHAELS, HOBBY LOBBY, JOANN FABRIC NO LUCK. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING ON AMAZON BUT DON’T SEE ANY 1 INCH. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN FIND THIS PRODUCT AT? THANKS
Hi Sheila! You can find 1 inch reed here. Even though it says 25.4 mm, that is equal to 1 inch. 🙂 It looks like the shipping out is taking 1-2 months at this time. I am not sure where else you can find it. This is the product I used in my tobacco basket tutorial. Hope this helps!
On the tobacco basket, did you just drop the entire roll down in water for five minutes? Also, when you curved it over night, did you make 2 Stacks? What kind of brad should I look for?
Hi Shelia! We cut the roll to the different lengths that we used first. Then we put it all in the water at the same time. It was a pretty large bucket. We did have two stacks curved over the forms. They were right next to each other. Here is a link to some brads that you can use that are similar to the ones we used. Good luck!
I really love the sugar mold idea and would like to add one too my tablescape.. My question is how did you keep the correct angle on the sides when you flipped over the piece of wood? Does your tablesaw blade move in both directions? Mine only angles to one side.
Hi Melissa! Thank you! The memory box was a gift that was made for my son from a family friend, so unfortunately it cannot be purchased. You may be able to find something similar online. Good luck! 🙂
I love your decorating ideas for an Eagle Scour COH. I am wondering about the scarf display rack. Did you make it or purchase it? I would love the directions if you have them! Thanks so much!
Hi Karla! Thank you so much! Unfortunately, I do not have any instructions for that. We did not make it ourselves, we borrowed it from our Cub Scout Pack. It is made with dowels and two wood “feet”. Everything is tied together with some twine. Hopefully that helps if you attempt to make one. 🙂
Hey Kimberly, so I’m totally in love with your plaid Christmas tree it’s absolutely beautiful but I did have a question as to what it is you use to achieve the fluffy snow pieces on your tree? Thanks so much 🥰
I am an enthusiastic flower arranger and love creating vignettes, so always looking out for accessories to include.
I’m enjoying reading your news and ideas.mthank you.

Regarding your past post on DIY butterfly decorations, I just thought you might like to know how mine turned out. I used some 12″ floral wire, bent into an L shape with the foot being about 2″ long. When I glued the antenna on I also glued the short foot in. I then tucked them into some of my houseplants. They are absolutely adorable, and I’ve gotten lots of comments on them. Of course I told them where I got the patterns. Thank you so much for the inspirations. PS, love your posts.

Are the Disney State Room doors available as SVG files for personal cutters like cricut? I would love to purchase some if they are.
Hi Jess! The stateroom mickey ears come as jpeg files and are easily cut out by hand. There is no need to use a Cricut. 🙂

As soon as I posted my question, my husband came in and told me he figured out the answer to my question!
Glad you got it figured out! 🙂 Good luck on the sugar mold. I love decorating with mine, it is very versatile!
I LOVE the Eagle Court of Honor post. Great ideas for a wonderful ceremony. I am wondering where the memory box can be purchased.
Hi Melissa! Thank you! The memory box was a gift that was made for my son from a family friend, so unfortunately it cannot be purchased. You may be able to find something similar online. Good luck! 🙂
Hi Kimberly,
