About & Contact
A big welcome to Making It With Danielle! My name is Danielle Gaddis and I am the voice behind the blog.
Since 2011, this blog has been a place where I can share what I’m doing in my home. What started out as a place to keep my family + friends in touch with what I was making, has turned in to a huge creative outlet for me that is now viewed by people all over the globe! As the website has continued to grow, I have been a part of all kinds of fun collaborative projects. I’ve also gotten to share my work for several weddings, baby showers and other exciting events.
The blog is divided up into three major categories: recipes, crafts and home tips which are broken down even further in pull-down menus located at the top of the page to help you more easily find what you’re looking for. Towards the beginning of every month, I share my Favorite Things List from the previous month to shed some lights on new & exciting things I’m currently loving (+ think you will too!).
You can subscribe to this blog via email by entering your information in the box to the right in the sidebar. All of my social media account links can be located on the sidebar so be sure to follow me on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram & Pinterest to keep up with the latest updates to the blog as well as special announcements!
My biggest goal has and will continue to bring you fantastic how-to tutorials that make your home life exciting and ever-changing. If you have an idea for a craft, need a tip for something around the house or want to learn how to cook something that’s always intimidated you, I encourage you all to email me (see address below)! I love hearing from you and strive to keep the content on this blog relevant and I love engaging with my readers.

Hi!
I have a friend who follows your blog and recommended it to me. I live in Derby, NY and also have a couple of blogs. It so nice to see that there are young fellow bloggers close by to exchange tips and stories.
