If you have an iPhone or iPad and are looking for some DIY inspiration, I'm happy to say I just discovered some for you!  You can preview the latest issue of DIY Lifestyle Magazine by following this link and enjoying a free download.  The link will also lead you to an offer for a free 18 piece Tri-Lobe Precision Knife set when you subscribe to the magazine (valid in the US and Canada only).

The content was contributed by many talented bloggers and I'm super psyched to have been one of the chosen few for the October issue.  DIY Lifestyle magazine is ranked #1 in the iTunes Newsstand for crafts and hobbies with a 5 star rating.  It's such a fun read! For the October issue they featured my Chevron Wall Tutorial and my "Cheap and Easy Ceiling Fan Makeover" tutorial. Check it out along with other fun projects.  Would love your support!  Download the magazine and get your free gift!

I'm over on Live The Fancy Life today sharing a fun offer for a nursery must have!  Besides a FREE offer and gift basket inspiration, you'll also catch a little peek of my DIY changing pad cover & our maternity photos!

Hey peeps.  So. I'm sad to tell you my hard drive has to be replaced.  I have been without my laptop for over a week.  This must be what hell feels like.  Argh.  Well it could be worse. At least I back up all my files on a regular basis.  Oh wait.  I don't do that.  I haven't backed up since before summer started.  So yeah, I just might lose our entire summer pictured in thousands of photos.  I'm not crying. Yet.  There's still a chance.  You prayed for good weather for Nadia's party and it came to pass....so please pray I don't lose EVERYTHING.  And if I do, lesson learned: Back up regularly.  The end.

My point in telling you all of that is to explain why, after Nadia's party, when I should be sharing party planning goodness with you, I've been eerily silent.  Now you know I wasn't mad at you.  I've borrowed my husband's laptop a few times this week to get some work for Tall Clothing Mall done and to complete a guest post over on Live the Fancy Life.  I'm psyched about this post.  It was an idea I've had for awhile but never took the time to execute.  Expect to see a similar post on Taste{Full} this week.

Check out the full post here! I miss you!  Hope to be back at it soon (new hard drive should arrive tomorrow). Ciao!
