DIY Fabric Covered Cork Board

This is something that I had been wanting to do for a while. Last week I was at Target and spotted the perfect size cork board - perfect! I followed a very easy DIY here - and 30 minutes later I had an amazing board for my new studio!


I also made a sign with my store name - out of tick cardstock - using my Silhouette Cameo - LOVE IT

Can't wait to make two more for my daughters' bedrooms!

NEW Studio Reveal!

After several months of a complicated renovation I can enjoy my new studio!

We renovated the upstairs of my home (2 bed and 1 bath) and move the girls up! They are very happy with their new space! I am thrilled to enjoy their old space! A big bedroom was transformed in my new studio! Here is the result:


One the first bedroom I kept an old daybed that can be used for guest. My favorite part of the studio is the Martha Stewart craft tables - it is really amazing how much you can store - and how organized you can be!

On the back of the room I had 2 IKEA LACK bookshelves. They also hold a lot of things and are very sturdy. Unfortunately they are no longer available.


In between the bookshelves I used a small KALLAX bookshelf and it is perfect to hold some of my papers.


On the opposite wall I have a desk from Ikea, one ALEX drawer unit, printer, and two cubes from Michael's to store more paper.


I already got a few messages asking to share the "inside" of all cabinets and share some tips on how to organize punches, dies, etc. I will work on that post soon!


Hope you enjoyed!

{Real Party} - Let's get Tangled!

This is the second time I styled Maia’s party – one of my favorite clients! She told me she was having a Tangled party and her mom asked me to make something simple, modern, but at the same time a “princess” theme.

The dessert table had Maia’s favorites: cupcakes from a local bakery, marshmallows, mini chocolate nuggets, brigadeiros, “beijinho de coco” – Brazilian coconut fudge, decorated sugar cookies, and gumballs.

Everything was personalized with her name and age. The gumball tubes were transformed into a little Tangled princess, with purple dress, tiara, and a long braid! The back drop had one of my favorite’s features: The Snuggly Duckling sign! Hope you enjoy!
