About Us

Jodi Sanford is the creator and director of Make a Pretty Life, a shop and blog dedicated to crafters and DIY-ers and their desire to create a pretty life, home and projects!

The dream began in 2004, when Jodi, her husband, Jared, and their little family, started Fancy Pants Designs, Inc., a paper-crafting design company that has since ventured into a variety of mediums such as fabric, stationery, party supply and home and office decor.

Jodi’s experience in the craft and hobby industry expands worldwide through teaching events, multiple television appearances, including HSN, and with her work appearing in many national publications, including HGTV and Better Homes and Gardens publications.

👟Part 2️⃣! Same base pieces, new look! This time I went  for a more sporty look with the fun striped socks, “electric blue” sneakers and coordinating trucker hat! 
.
The simplest base can become multiple fun outfits just by adding a few changes in your accessories 🤩! And, these fun wide leg, cuffed jeans are perfect for showing off your socks and shoes!

🎀Part 1️⃣! Same base pieces, but a different vibe between the two-  come back to see the other! Comment SHOP for links!
.
Change up a basic look to a girly vibe with color and accessories! I went with the cute pink adidas, floral socks, brown beanie and the cutest “add-on” collar to add some frilly vibes to my sweatshirt! {These used to be called dickeys- your grandma had one & cousin Eddie 😂!} But, they’re all updated now and SUPER FUN & ideal so you aren’t over layered! 
.
Just a side note: These jeans by @freepeople keep selling out, but they now offer a special color that is more worn looking-still super cute! The style and wide leg with cuff is so fun!
