Easter Eggs Roundup

Pull out some of your supplies and put them to good use on your Easter eggs this year! Straight-from-the-stash products like rub ons, glue dots & glue lines, flowers, stickers, ribbon, and lace are all it takes to make those eggs a little bit more exciting than the standard fare. Try some of these techniques or make up your own!

Easter Round Up

If you act fast, you can probably still get some of these handmade beauties in time for Easter. (Which I thought was the 19th, but it's actually the 12th, so pardon the lateness of this post.) Check back tomorrow for a round up of bunny & chick-themed crochet and knitting patterns that you can make in time to give to any little kiddos who might love a handmade animal in their Easter basket. And speaking of Easter baskets, I'm working on a free tutorial that should turn out really cute if things go according to plan. Disclaimer: I said IF. Look for that on Friday!

Etsy roundup: All Things Green

I've been reading your comments about spring, and it's been making me so happy! It has brought to mind some beautiful images: spending time with the little ones outside in the grass, planting pretty flowers, getting pink-cheeked from riding bikes. (And I have never hung sheets outside to dry, but now I really want to give it a try.)

Thanks to all of you for sharing.

In honor of St. Patrick's day tomorrow, here are some cute green things we've spotted on Etsy.


Pale pink on green damask Mary Janes, from Gracious May's shop. (I know, drool.)


Organic Cotton Spring Deer Tee (L), from Bonspiel's shop. (I have purchased from her before, she makes really great quality stuff.)


Felt flower hairband, from jenmenkhaus' shop. (Lots of cute little felt & fabric creations.)
