We love a neutral throw pillow around these parts. They are so incredibly versatile and go with just about everything. Kind of like the little black dress of pillows, so to speak. But if you are looking to add a little something to your neutrals in the new year, we’ve come up with three super easy DIYs (no sewing required!) to bring your throw pillow game to the next level. DIY Pom Pom Pillow Neutral throw pillow Yarn in 1 or 2 colors Scissors Fabric glue Pom Pom maker Follow the instructions on the pom pom maker to make a pom pom. You’ll want to make at least 4 (they were so quick that we made 8!). If you have more than one pom pom for each corner, knot their tails together about ½” away from the poms. Trim the tails to be about 1” long. Reach your hand inside the pillow cover (you may want to remove the insert for this part) and grab one corner. Gently fold the corner in on itself a bit so that you can grab the tail of the pom pom and tuck it inside the cor...

This 3rd birthday celebration is the culmination of a photographer mom with a fab eye for design and a venue near and dear to the family’s heart. That mom is  Shannon Von Eschen  and with the help of  Ashley Nicole Events , she crafted a third birthday celebration at the family’s tree farm with loads of greenery from  Bare Root Flora  and s’mores front and center. Basically it’s every kid’s dream and maybe a few grownups too (ahem, me). Head to the vault for even more. Share this gorgeous gallery on   As a mother who’s also a photographer, I tend to only want to throw parties that have an abundance of style, details, and a sense of over-the-top decor. So, even though Eli was turning THREE, I wanted to create a space that would not only bring our families together, but also tell a story and create a sense of “home.” I love curated spaces with clearly-defined color palettes and though I slept hardly at all the week prior, the w...

Cold weather means hot beverages and with that, these fuzzy little cup cozies will surely come in handy. It’s a  simple DIY that will take your morning latte or afternoon tea to the next level. And just throwing it out there, how cute would these cozies be for Valentine’s Day gifts? Soooo cute! Grab the instructions below. Felt sheet Starbucks cup cardboard wrap Sharpie marker Gold glitter iron on paper Scissors Fabric glue Open up the cardboard cup wrap and trace the shape onto the felt with the sharpie marker. Cut out the wrap shape. Cut out fun shapes like hearts or dots from the glitter iron on paper- you can draw on the top side with a sharpie first (it’s a clear backing that will come off later). You can also trace some simple letter stencils to make words. Arrange your glitter shapes or letters onto the felt wrap. Turn the steam off on your iron then iron the glitter shapes onto the felt by pressing down for 30 seconds on each shape. Let cool for a few se...
