| While looking through the Ballard catalog, Jen from Life, Crafts, & Whatever couldn?t help but notice the rope spool side table. However, the price and nautical vibe just weren?t agreeing with her budget and style. Jen instead created a Mini Me version using wood plaques and a paper mache cylinder. At seven inches tall, it [...Read More] Read Full Article » |

Melanzane alla Parmigiana is my favourite Neapolitan dish, it's true comfort food for the soul and a perennial, seasonal favorite. It's making has become a family affair as my eldest scours the shrubs in search of our big black bounty.
Ingredients
Serves 4
4 pounds eggplant (halved, then cut into thin slices)
olive oil
2 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes (blanched, peeled and chopped)
1 small onion

Our last Curbly House update was a while ago, so I wanted to check in and let you know how it's all going. If there were one sentence to summarize phase two of our home renovation, it would be: Damn you, winter.
Weather has not been on our side this time around. In fact, weather has been our nemesis. We had (too optimistically?) hoped to dig the foundation for our addition in January. But it was

 I predicted a few weeks ago that metallics would be the faux finish to replace chalkboard paint this year. The metal (or faux-metal) look is definitely gaining popularity, but chalkboard is still holding strong, so there might be a fight to the finish! It’s okay — you can cheer for both.
One big bonus for chalkboard paint is that it’s quite versatile and very easy to use. You can

 Did I say we were leaving for Minnesota yesterday? I meant today!
Slight change in plans, back we’re all set to leave this morning now. Yippeeeeee!
PS- That’s the view of our Gray Lake paint (in the sunroom, on the left) and our Gray Owl paint (lightened by 50% in the kitchen, on the right) from our back door…which I’m walking out through as soon as I shut off this comput

 Laura from Inspiration for Momswas in the process of remodeling her son's bedroom when she stumbled upon utility boards from Pottery Barn Kids. Laura loved the idea of adding a creative area to her son?s room? just not at Pottery Barn prices. Instead, she was able to make two boards for half the cost of one of their boards! Laura?s son is happy, and so is her wallet!

 We’ve been working almost non-stop on our backyard. (well I guess we stop for rain the last few days or so) BUT -we are putting in a patio! I should re-phrase that we are digging one out one stinkin’ wheelbarrow full at a time! YUCKY!
The issue we are trying to decide on is a shade structure. I don’t want anything permanent that blocks daylight to my windows, since we are in a b

 Don't ask me how I came up with this project...it's a long story. Basically, my dog Charlie can jump really high and will eat anything,so I needed to makea wall-mounted planter that I could place out of his reach. So the Vurm herb planter was born.
I already had the IKEA Vurm on hand; it is actuallya wine bottle holder, but it turns out that the wider white wine bottles don't fit, and I'm a

 We’re headed to St. Louis today. That’s about the halfway point to where we’re going in Minnesota. I’m hoping our pets don’t give our house-sitters too much trouble while we’re gone.
Something tells me everything will be just fine though.
PS- Know any must-stop-for flea markets between southern Alabama and St. Louis? Sure would be fun to stretch our legs in

 I have to be honest…when I first found out I was having a little dude I got all scared! My pre-Gunner self was never very impressed with little boy clothes. In my mind I always thought boy clothes were Winnie the Pooh overalls and helicopter shirts. I never had to venture into the boys department so little did I know that little guy clothes were as cute as they were! I’ve made a comple
