I’m giving up chips — of all types — for Lent this year, guys.

It’s going to be hard! They’re my No. 1 vice!

Any suggestions for what I can snack on at night, to keep my mind off of them?

  1. I love to have sliced carrots at hand. Keeps me from snacking on chocolate. I usually don't even buy chocolate, so I'm not tempted.

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m journalist and blogger in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have an 8-year-old son and a 6-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep it from taking over my life. Making things isn’t just a hobby — it’s part of what keeps me alive.

Whether I’m decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes for my kids, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

My eyes were burning last night from too many consecutive hours glued to my computer monitors, researching and writing. So I took a super hot bath (a little too hot actually) and this sign above the corner caught my eye when I stepped out. I can (and do) tell myself these things OVER AND OVER, but it’s incredibly hard to practice what I preach. . . . #handpaintedsign #diydecor #takeabreak #begentlewithyourself #ecmmedia 🌟🌟🌟 I *never* iron clothes (I dig the rumpled look) but pressing cross-stitches is actually kind of fun. Thanks for the tips, @redhandledscissors! . . . ✂️✂️✂️ . . . #impropercrossstitch #patterndesign #crossstitch #handmade I’m going on a *bit* of a rant in today’s post ... . . . #linkinbio #parenting #annoyances #ecmmedia Most of the frames on these #DIY photo ledges were jazzed up by a little technique called DRY-BRUSHING 👌 . . . It’s SUPER easy, takes almost zero effort (or paint), and can dramatically change the look of furniture or accessories. . . . Full details today on the blog! #linkinbio . . . #diyhomedecor #paintingfurniture #diyhomeprojects #ecmmedia Today on the blog I’m sharing allllll of the details for our handmade #HarryPotter Halloween costumes. D was Harry, C was Hermione Granger (which is a little funny because D has the BIGGEST crush on @emmawatson), the pup was Dobby, and I was Rita Skeeter! . . . #diyhalloweencostume #harrypottercosplay #handmade #sewing #ecmmedia
