I love seeing these posts by other bloggers and it’s fun to review what posts were popular at A Jennuine Life for 2012. Ironically, many of these weren’t written in 2012 – I’m not sure if that means I’m off my game this year, or if I should be happy my older posts have such staying {…Continue Reading}

Blog Maintenance: LinkWithin
Here’s a quick and easy one I’ve been meaning to add for some time. Well, maybe not as quick and easy as it should’ve been. The directions at LinkWithin are very easy and so I followed along and… nothing. I sent an e-mail for support, but perhaps the folks at LinkWithin are spending the holidays {…Continue Reading}
Blog Maintenance: Organizing Tutorials Page
Hoo! This one was time consuming and a little frustrating, but in the end TOTALLY worth the time investment. My brain is all frazzled with html!! Again, heading to Pinterest where I have a board designated for blog managment, I chose a great tutorial by Laura’s Crafty Life for creating an image gallery. She gives full {…Continue Reading}
Blog Maintenance: Signature
Continuing with my theme of trying to make the most of my enforced couch time, I’ve been wanting to add a signature to my posts for a while. It was so super easy! You can use Photoshop or Gimp, but I went with the easiest route for me and used Picmonkey. Edit a picture (just {…Continue Reading}
Blog Maintenance: New Social Media Buttons
I’ve been trying to be a good patient and spend lots of time on the sofa with my foot elevated and iced. This lends itself to blog maintenance more than producing things to blog about, so I took the opportunity to continue trying to spiff up the old blog. I searched Pinterest for “free {…Continue Reading}
Merry Christmas Two-Oh-One-Two
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I might pop in if I finish any more projects (Clementine and Rose have faces now) before the new year, and don’t forget I’ll be starting Thrifty to Nifty Thursdays on January 3rd.
Meet Clementine, Rose, & Some Pretty Bad Peg People
I shared the Black Apple doll I made for Hadley with you the other day. I decided to call her Clementine because of her orange hair. It seems like a good name for her. We’ll call Arden’s pink haired dollie Rose. Since Arden is nearly four, her doll gets a few additional details like ric {…Continue Reading}
Thrifty to Nifty Thursdays: Coming in January
I’ve been wanting to host a weekly linky party for a while now, but there are so many linky parties out there with many of them receiving hundreds upon hundreds of linkups each week. I couldn’t see trying to throw another linkup similar to those and have it be successful without me putting in an {…Continue Reading}
Handmade Holidays and Surgery
After making Arden’s Pottery Barn Inspired with a Hello Kitty twist toddler sleeping bag last week, I had the piece where I cut away the quilt covering Kitty’s face and decided to whip up a dollie sleeping bag. She revels in making beds for her dollies to be in, so I’m sure this will be {…Continue Reading}
Product Trial: Crest 3D Whitestrips
A while back I joined Influenster, a community where people give opinions of products and experiences. You can enroll to receive Vox boxes which are packages with products to try out in exchange for your feedback. Recently I received the opportunity to try out Crest’s new 3D Whitestrips and I thought I’d share my thoughts {…Continue Reading}
