Today I’m spotting a Sentimental Mom. Her name is Jennifer and she is from the blog Balancing Beauty and Bedlam.
Jennifer is a girl after my own heart when it comes to her love of flea market finds and creating something beautiful out of found objects!  This enamel pitcher is one of my all time favorite [...]

Wow! I’m excited – I found a Green Thumb Mom. I’ve spotted Jane Marie from the blog Thyme-For-Herbs.

Spotted: Robyn from Robyn’s Online World – Do-It-All Mom

I’ve spotted another Do-It-All Mom – Robyn from the blog Robyn’s Online World.

Today I’m spotting Christine from the blog Boston Mamas.  She is a Do-It-All Mom.
I didn’t even know where to start in trying to define Christine.  She is so accomplished and talented. She has so many different interests and somehow seems to be able to pursue many of them at once. On top of it all, [...]

Spotted: Piera from JollyMom.com – Traditional Mom

Today I’m spotting Piera from the blog Jolly Mom.  She is a Traditional Mom.
I love the look and feel of Piera’s website.  It has a fun (or should I say jolly) vibe that’s both vintage and modern at the same time. I think this sweet teacup bouquet has a similar quality to it. And, I [...]

Spotted: Diane from DK Mommy Spot – Green Thumb Mom

I’ve spotted a Green Thumb Mom – Diane from DK Mommy Spot.
The first sentence in “About dkM” states that Diane is a work-at-home mom who is fascinated with herbs, natural remedies, and healthy cooking.  What better floral bouquet to honor Diane this Mother’s Day than this creation made entirely of fresh cut herbs, nestled in [...]
