About Us


ABOUT US
We're three out of five siblings that grew up in the Valley of the Sun - Arizona.  As adults, life has taken us across the country and even the world!  Our mother was an original "crafter", making costumes, home decorations, and delicious dinners before it was blogged about.  She taught us how to sew, cook, craft and create.
Following advice from her own mother, our mom made life's little moments special and meaningful.  Like they used to say, "Celebrate life's little moments."  In our own families, we hope to make significant events and everyday activities memorable and fun for the 14 kids between us-- ranging in ages from 23 to 4 as of 2015!.  We'd like to share a little of what we know, new craft projects and our do it yourself adventures with our own kids and with you!

WHY BUILDING OUR HIVE?

"Over its short lifetime of a few weeks to four months, a single honeybee's contribution for honey to its hive is a mere one-twelfth of one teaspoon.  Though seemingly insignificant when compared tot the total, each bee's one-twelfth of a teaspoon of honey is vital to the life of the hive....What would be the cumulative effect of millions of small, compassionate acts performed daily by us because of our heartfelt Christian love for others?"  by M. Russell Ballard

What a great sentiment and inspiration for our blog.  Each of us has a contribution to make and every little drop of honey makes a difference!  Our drops of honey are found in all we do for our home, family and others--meals, faith, crafting, friendship, cleaning, decorating, teaching, giving, learning, creating............

What honey are you making to build your little hive into a home?
