All of my son’s favorite stuffed animals have been handmade. My mother-in-law gave him a hand-knit bear when he was born. And my mom continued a long family tradition of sewing him a sock monkey last Christmas. Alas, I have no crafty skills myself, so thank goodness I have Etsy.
Get outta here. A USB-rigged antique typewriter keyboard for your iPad? Love it.
Gotta love the high school nostalgia of writing down pop song lyrics for your crush on Valentine’s Day. I might have to rekindle the habit.

I’ve heard so many people say they would love to to redo their wedding now in the age of Pinterest. There’s so much amazing inspiration there, but then again it might push me over the edge. Too many cute ideas to choose from! One thing I would do, given the chance again, would be to set up a photo booth. How great would it be to have a guestbook filled with chalkboard speech bubble messages from our friends and family? I wish.
