Spring Garland


Spring is finally here in Arkansas- despite 7 inches of snow on the first day of spring- and we are loving it even if I have to sing "popcorn popping" EVERYTIME we drive somewhere... What better way to declare that spring is here than this banner! Go check out Sweet Something Designs- make sure you have time to sit and read all her old posts though... great great great ideas!

If your house is like my house, the dress up clothes are starting to take over. This is a great solution that is practical, cheap and CUTE! I can't wait to see the box she makes for her girls! Head on over to (you're going to love her blog name) A Girl and a Glue Gun and look at all the cute things she has done!

Calling All Crafters...

My spring show is taking up more time than I had anticipated not to mention I'm still potty training lil A....so I would LOVE to see your fantastic creations! Leave a comment with a link to your project and I would LOVE to feature some of my favorites in the days leading up to the show!

Fabric Flowers


Fabric flowers are everywhere you look these days- go here for a fresh take on this idea. Sew 4 Home has some great ideas. Pretty sure I'm going to have to make some of these... after the spring craft show- there are only so many hours during the day after all...

Easter Egg Genius


Easter egg time is upon us... yeah I just found out early this week Easter is this Sunday... I've been living in my pre-craft fair bubble that consists of hot glue, super glue, diet coke and reruns. Anyways- when I was little my mom would always do eggs with us I remember that one year she had us blow the yokes out so we could make egg people with pipe cleaners and eyes- they were awesome. But blowing the eggs out was NOT awesome- I remember how hard it was- I also remember that my mom had to blow out more than her fair share. Mom- where was Martha Stewart that day. Check this out- use the baby nose sucker you have stuck in the back of your cabinet!
P.S. You don't have to buy an egg coloring kit, use 1 cup water, 1 tsp. vinegar, and food coloring. Save yourself two bucks and buy a diet coke and a peanut butter egg to eat by YOURSELF after you spend all that time cleaning up spilled egg color and cracked eggs.
