In Flint there is a real Little Caesar! Here he is perched atop the Caesar’s sign!
He’s on a very busy intersection on Corunna Rd. He’s a cutie!

The Christmas House, Royal Oak, MI
categories: Roadside Curiosities
On the corner of 12 Mile Rd. & Washington in Royal Oak, a double lot is decorated from edge-to-edge (and ground to tree) with Christmas decoration. It’s become so popular it’s even been written up in the local newspaper.
This is the front of the house.
A close-up shows the light-up chorus. It’s set to music, of course!
This is the yard and lot next to the house…it’s kinda spectacularly tacky.
Up close and personal with the Christmas lawn.
A view of the fence…
Look! On the roof! It’s Santa.
More Christmas Crazy!
Goes without saying that this is a favorite stop of mine in the Detroit area during the holidays!
Red Bridesmaid Cards–my faves!
categories: Bridal Cards, Crafty Gal
I love these. I love the bride’s bold color choices! Candy Apple Red with an empire waist and a black bow with long streamers. Adorable! It’s so sassy!
What I like to call a “painfully pregnant” bridesmaid’s card.
These were custom with the name & I like the work I did on flower girl cards, too. I don’t know why I’m so proud of these!
Santa & Baby Jesus
categories: Roadside Curiosities
I love this. Santa pays his respects to the Baby Jesus. In old-fashioned 2-D! I wish I’d been there at dusk to see the star lit up.
Santa interspersed with nativity elements always cracks me up!
Eaton County Courthouse Square
categories: Roadside Curiosities
A giant Santa and two “little” elves grace the lawn of the Eaton County Courthouse Square. I enjoy that Santa is just sort gaping. It’s like when you take a picture just before someone smiles but after they’ve noticed you’re lifting your camera.
A detail of the creepy elf. He’s awesome.
Marble Magnets from Romance Comics
categories: Crafty Gal
I took one-inch flat marbles and cut out images from some vintage romance comics. I love these magnets because they utilize one of my favorite easy crafts & one of my favorite pop art aesthetics.
Up close & personal.
Happy Holidays Toilet Seat Cover Set
categories: Crafty Gal
I made this for my mother as a joke. However, it was no joke to craft this felt masterpiece. Hee! It was a serious finger-beating! That said? I love how over the top it is. I seriously LOVE how over the top it is.
Junior Bridesmaid Card
categories: Bridal Cards, Crafty Gal
The junior bridesmaid card is slimmer and less curvy than the traditional strapless bridesmaid style offered. This one was a little tricky, what with the bottom edging. Turned out real nice, though!
Pregnancy Congrats
categories: Crafty Gal
A natural extension of the pregnancy bridesmaid cards are these pregnancy congrats cards. I love the way the dress turned out!
From the side!
Sage Green Cards with Matching Flower Girls
categories: Bridal Cards, Crafty Gal
These are some of my favorites! I love the color as well as the matching dainty bow.
And the ribbon on the flower girl card matches the ribbon on the dresses.
