DIY Preppy Scooter Makeover

Helmet / Butterfly Shorts / Tank / Emma’s Sandals / Lucy’s Sandals / Bunny / Scooter / Basket

You might remember my DIY gingham pumpkin tutorial (when Emma was a baby!), which was shared by Reese Witherspoon’s brand Draper James. I remember being so excited by that. And today, I’m sharing a fun Draper James-inspired scooter makeover!

DIY Taylor Swift Eras Doll

It’s been a long time coming. 😉 Lucy’s Taylor Swift doll is done! (And I’m sharing a tutorial.)

Listen. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be blessed with two little Swiftie daughters with dozens of Swiftie besties. It’s the BEST. 😂 And goodness: talk about all the activities that have stemmed from this shared love. From events and parties to imaginative play and crafts, I can get them excited about and invested in just about anything if I simply declare it’s Taylor Swift-themed.
