A Handprint Bouquet for Mother’s Day

This post may contain affiliate links Okay, I’m pretty much down to the wire with this post, as Mother’s Day is in two days, but that is pretty much what I specialize in. For anybody else who is struggling to come up with a thoughtful Mother’s Day gift, that you can throw together in less than an hour, but will still earn the total “Awwwww” factor on Sunday, well I am here for ya! A few years ago, we made these adorable “Mother’s Day Bouquets” with handprints! I love handprint crafts and artwork, because they kind of “freeze time” for...

Celebrating our 6 month blogiversary and accepting the Liebster Award!!! | HappilyFrazzled.com 0

6 Month Blogiversary….and an Award!!!

I can’t believe that this past week marked 6 months of blogging here on Happily Frazzled!!! I have had so much fun during these past 6 months and I have learned so much! I have learned a lot about blogging, and social media, but I have also learned so much about myself and where I want to take this blog in the future, which if you remember my very first post, that was kind of my whole point in starting this blog. I was looking to find myself again, and come into my own through writing, crafting, learning, and teaching....

5 Indoor Toddler Activities

Things have been pretty busy over here, to say the least. For those of you that follow on Facebook, you may have seen that we bought a new house! And more recently, something equally exciting happened, we sold our current house!!! We go to settlement on BOTH houses May 19th, so to say that this mama has been a little distracted, is an understatement. I will be sharing so much more about our upcoming move in the weeks/months to come, but today I wanted to share a few of my favorite indoor toddler activities that help me keep my little...

5 Ways to Decorate with Glitter

This post contains affiliate links Glitter sometimes gets a bad rap. I’ve heard it referred to as “craft herpes,” because once you get it you can’t get rid of it. There is an actual website where you can ship your enemies glitter. And Ellen Degeneres has mentioned many times on her show all the reasons that she is anti-glitter and how she has just about banned it from her set. To all of which I say pshhh. I love glitter. It’s fun, and girly, and glittery and if I spend the rest of my life with a speck of glitter...

Perfectly portioned cheddar treats for your little bunnies on Easter | HappilyFrazzled.com 2

Cheddar Treats for Little Bunnies

Easter is just a few days away, so I am trying to sneak in one more Easter treat before those baskets need to be filled. This one is a perfectly portioned snack for the little bunnies in your life, or the bigger bunnies because seriously, who doesn’t love bunny/goldfish crackers? Our little ones are five and two, and every single year we have the sugar filled Easter baskets and jelly bean filled eggs, and our kids are so hopped up on sweets by 7:30 am, that the meltdowns are kicking in just in time to head out for the Easter...

Super Sweet Easter Treats

I will start this post by admitting that Easter has never been my favorite holiday. Maybe it’s because growing up we followed the tradition of hunting for our hidden Easter baskets on Easter morning, and I was never able to find mine (DON’T hide my candy!!!). Maybe it’s because when I was 14, I got my wisdom teeth out right before Easter, my face blew up like a chipmunk and I was forbidden from skipping out on Easter mass (seriously). Whatever the reason, in my younger years, Easter was not my favorite. Over time though, my grumpy mood has shifted...

5 Ways to Decorate with Tulle

This post contains affiliate links Does anybody know what my kids are playing with? If you guessed a bazillion empty rolls of tulle, you win! These are the empty spools that built up in the process of DIY’ing the heck out of Ellie’s Tutu themed 2nd birthday party. I got a little obsessed with the tulle. For about $2.50 per 10-25 yards, it’s not hard to do, and you can do SO much with it. I already showed you last week how you can DIY a No-Sew tutu with tulle, but now I am going to show you 5 more...

DIY Outfit for the Birthday Girl for Under $20

This post may contain affiliate links If anybody has ever meandered through Etsy or Pinterest looking for anything child or birthday related, you have surely come across all the simply adorable outfits that people sell for little girl’s birthdays. There are frills, there are flowers, there are TUTUS! They really are precious, and they can also be…really expensive. I do LOVE a little girl all dressed up for her birthday, and I do not want to discredit all the work that the sellers put in to making those outfits, they really are amazing, but I also know that not everybody...

Tutu Birthday Party | HappilyFrazzled.com 5

It’s Tutu Fun Turning Two!

I can’t believe our baby girl turned TWO at the beginning of this month! She is a petite little thing, who waited until she was 18 months old to start walking, so she has been our itty bitty baby for so long, and now all of a sudden, she is a running, climbing, opinionated TODDLER! It doesn’t matter how many people warn you about how fast it goes, it still just keeps going SO FAST. We celebrated our little Ellie Belle turning two, with a glitter filled tutu party and I am so happy with how it turned out, despite...

How to Make a Heart-Felt Pillow for Valentine’s Day

Before I dive head first into sharing all the glittery goodness that was Miss Ellie Belle’s second birthday party last week, I can’t resist sneaking in a “heart-felt” Valentine craft, since Valentine’s Day is right around the corner! My son loves arts and crafts, and whenever he sees me working on a project with lots of fun supplies, he always asks me what I’m making, what it’s for, and can he help. The other afternoon, he woke up from nap and found me cutting giant hearts out of felt. I love when I am able to tell him that I...
