Will You Dare to DIY?

Authors: Kim @ NewlyWoodwards

If you've read NewlyWoodwards for any length of time (and thank you if you have), you may remember a little link party I host each December called "Dare to DIY." It's a fun series of parties to motivate us to DIY projects through Thanksgiving and Christmas - and to do it together. It's a great way to complete some...

Authors: Kim @ NewlyWoodwards

Thanks again to Erin at His and Hers for asking me to be a cheerleader for this month's Random Acts of Craftiness challenge. If you remember, this month's challenge was to use items from the hardware store.

Jaw-dropping kitchen update

Authors: Kim @ NewlyWoodwards

If you are anything like me, your jaw will be dropping after seeing this kitchen update, courtesy of my in-laws. This is truly one of my favorite kitchens of all time. When I saw the finished kitchen, I told my mother-in-law that it should be in a magazine. It's that good. (I feel the same way about their entire house,...

Happy Halloweenie

Authors: Kim @ NewlyWoodwards

Halloween is seriously so much more fun with a kid.

I can't get over it. I like all holidays, but this year, they just seem more exciting. Like, we get to do them for the first time.

You saw Henry's costume on Monday. When I was pregnant, my aunt bought Oh Henry bars for door prizes at one of my showers. Then, my...

Fall motherly musings

Authors: Kim @ NewlyWoodwards

I wouldn't be a proper blogger if I didn't post pictures of pumpkins and leaves. And I wouldn't be a proper mommy blogger if I didn't plaster photos of my cute kid with pumpkins and leaves for all the interwebs to see.
