One little (well, big) problem that gets in my way sometimes is funds aren’t typically just lying around waiting to be spent on project materials. But that’s okay with me! It’s part of playing the game; that challenge makes it even more fun.
And I’ve found that some of my most outside-the-box and creative projects come during a time when I’m using materials we already have in order to spend as little as possible for a big impact. A lot of times, it’s because I keep 10 craft supplies in my stash that create endless project possibilities.

Even though we made this DIY Oversized Sheet Music for our little one's room, I wouldn't mind having about 5 more for the rest of our house. What would have cost about $230 to buy in the store, we made it for less than $20! Details and more pics are on the blog: http://goo.gl/xGGJDj

Getting a bit personal on the blog today to share a few words from the heart.  It's a subject that's been on my mind for quite a while now, and every day I'm amazed at new doors opening and new adventures being set before me. If you're needing a little encouragement to start off your week, I hope it will speak to you too. http://www.blesserhouse.com/2015/03/better-than-planned.html
