I loved art projects as a kid. You could often find me downstairs early in the morning, poring through craft books and determining which project I'd attempt that day! :) Sometimes, I followed the directions step by step; other times, I made up my own craft! Even though I'm an adult now, I still really enjoy doing art projects with kids. I've made fun crafts with my nanny kids over the years, and I experienced a lot of art projects as an elementary school teacher, too! But what I've been … [Read more...]
Sophie’s First Easter Basket
Some links in this post are affiliate links. As always, I only share products with you that I truly like. Thanks for supporting Just Bee! I actually debated about whether or not to give Sophie an Easter basket this year (and any year), since I don't want the holiday to become materialistic to her as she grows up. I've had to think about how we'll approach this holiday with intention. Easter excitement shouldn't only center around things like candy and treats and egg hunts, even though those … [Read more...]

DIY Custom Poem Canvas
I'm so excited about today's post, because I've honestly been wanting to share it with you for months now! Remember how I designed Sophie's nursery to be a "southern garden" theme? I had a very detailed mood board and everything! I wrote all about it in this post (and you can see the mood board here, too!). If you looked closely at the mood board for Sophie's room, then you probably saw that it included a type of poem written in small font. This wasn't just an example of any kind of poem … [Read more...]
Mistletoes Baby Christmas Craft
I'm so excited about today's post! Sophie and I made a fun Christmas craft last month, and I finally took photos of it so I can share it with you all!

12 Things That Make Our House a Cozy Home
I'm excited about today's post, because I'm passionate about turning a house into a cozy, welcoming home! A home isn't just a building where you eat and sleep - it's where family and friends gather, where memories are made, and it's where we should be able to let out a deep breath and relax. Bjorn and I are currently renting a house and I have slowly, steadily (and with help) been able to turn this place into OUR cozy, happy place! Growing Into Our Current Place: Spring and Summer 2013 - the … [Read more...]
17 Autumn Projects To Do Before The Seasons Change
I know, I know -- maybe it seems early to think about winter! Here in Minnesota, it feels like September has barely arrived and people are already going all out with fall decor while keeping one eye on the impending cold. But that's how we plan ahead in this state! ;) Personally, I've been thinking about winter a lot already this year because I've been trying to plan ahead for our little one! Our daughter is due mid-October and while I'm so excited, I'm also a bit overwhelmed at the idea of … [Read more...]
