Pocket Fairies (or as our friends like to call them Fairy Pockets!) is a super fun craft project that you’ll want to com back to over and over again. This easy to use template is perfect for a rainy-day activity or whenever you need a little quiet (creative) time. Way back when, The Big was obsessed with fairies and wanted a quick and easy template for drawing them. So my mama and I got together and came up with a few different templates for her to use. She was so into it that she created one of her own templates…

Are you needing some inspiration for what to make for dinner this week? Here are 5 low-carb recipes that should be added to your repertoire immediately. They are all dairy-free, gluten-free, and low-carb slash keto-friendly. It’s the age old question: what the heck do I make for dinner? In our house, that question is compounded because I have to factor in the recipe needing to be dairy-free, low carb, and appeal to my children (which is basically impossible). So when I come across a recipe that satisfies at least two of the three (my children are truly a lost cause,…

Want to know what’s new in the Etsy shop? Lots and lots of stitchery, that’s what. Embroidered portraits abound, with a crossed stitch piece and a textile landscape thrown in for good measure. It feels like it’s been ages since I’ve updated the Made With Lev Etsy shop. (Probably because it actually has been ages since I’ve updated the shop.) It’s not for lack of having things to list, that’s for sure. Unfortunately, it has everything to do with the old ADHD adage of out of site out of mind. Yep. I totally forgot that I had so many embroidery…

Want to know all the books I’ve read in March? I’ll give you a hint, it was a LOT. And it had everything to do with romance, college athletes, and suspense. Of course, I wouldn’t have it any other way. To say that I’ve gone full force into reading would probably be an understatement. I have officially exceeded my reading goal for THE YEAR in a span of 3 months, with 57 books read to date and another 2 in the process of being read (and listened to). In March alone, I read 28 books. TWENTY. EIGHT. BOOKS. (I legit just…

Instead of diving feet first into something and taking on more than I could chew, I decided to try something different: making a commitment to do something small every day. Little by little, those small increments of focus and attention add up to something much bigger (and more sustainable) in the end. As a chronic over-doer who likes to dive feet first into really involved projects, make sweeping changes to my life (and menu) on a whim, and decide that I need to do eight million things to be the best version of myself I can be … ooooonly to…

It’s official. I have fallen in love with reading all over again and have spent most of the month of February reading and falling in love with the Romance genre. Here are all of the books I read (and loved) during the month of February. After January’s reading binge, I was curious to see if I was able to keep up the same pace. Turns out, I was. Almost. I had a few books that I didn’t finish and found myself in a slump where I just couldn’t seem to motivate myself to read or listen to pretty much anything.…
