Week in Review

Each weekend in my Week in Review post I share with you some of my favorite crafty links I've come across during the week, from all over the blogosphere.  Enjoy!

 

I just adore this Ribbon Rose Ring at Craftster via Craft Gossip. 

So pretty - wouldn't these make lovely gifts for the Holidays?

 

This is an adorable pillow case dress for Halloween from Sugar Bee.  It would look darling layered over a long-sleeve tee and with a black cardigan and tights to go out trick or treating in!

I fell in love with these booties when I first saw them over at Rachel's blog.  HipKnitIzed provides the full tutorial - and it really does look like a quick and easy project!  I'm thinking these would be lovely Christmas gifts for all the little babies in my life!

And finally, not so much a project but I just LOVED Censational Girl's post on Holiday Housekeeping this week.  Some great times and ideas for getting organized for the holiday season.  Be sure to check it out!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Thank You... and a clumsy Week In Review...

Thank you to everyone who left sweet comments and reached out to me after reading Thursday's post.  I truly appreciate it.

I'm still trying to get things back together here - but in *trying* to catch up with some blog reading I did come across a few lovely projects from last week I thought I'd share with you.  Enjoy, and I will see you next week!

I used to LOVE making paper lanterns as a kid.  These lanterns in lovely floral prints at Dollar Store Crafts would be perfect for a baby shower...

My friend Abs over at Steinway Street is uber crafty - I knew this already (and so did you since she's been over here for a couple of guest posts!) - but I was super excited for her to see her beautiful coffee filter flower wreath featured at One Pretty Thing this week!  Yeah!

This tissue paper stained glass project over at Filth Wizardry is so bold and striking - and I love the "let your kids get messy" attitude that goes with it.  So much fun!

I've featured Trey and Lucy's button earrings before - but these with little bows are so petite and feminine I'm in love!  I need to have a button earring making party - immediately!

Happy Weekend, Crafters!

Caroline is so imaginative, and these big, beautiful, whimsical blossoms of hers could be used for a variety of events and occasions - or simply for a fun afternoon with your kids!

 Butterfly Collection Pillow at Ruffles And Stuff

Not only is this pillow darling, but I love the neutral on neutral color palette that Disney used here.

Stencil With Sharpie at One Pearl Button

Simply genius!  A doily stencil like this one would make a great background for a card, and I can see older kids really getting into this!

Have a beautiful weekend!

Week in Review

This weekend's a busy one for us... we had dinner with some out-of-town friends last night, are walking in the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk this morning, hosting a brunch for our teammates after the walk, and I'm hosting a Mother's Day card making workshop on Sunday.  Phew!  Not to mention the Spring cleaning and yardwork we need to complete that is STILL very much a work in progress.

 Each weekend in my Week in Review post I share with you some of my favorite crafty links I've come across during the week, from all over the blogosphere.  Enjoy, and have a wonderful weekend!

Amanda's blog has quickly become one of my faves - I mean, just look at this cake.  Try telling me you're ever seen a cake look this amazing... I dare you!  YUM!

Cut and Paste Necklaces at Artsyville

I love the simplicity of these - would be so much fun to make with a group of friends, or with children.

Summery Sun Hat at Prudent Baby

This hat is purr-fectly adorable.  And the picture below with the kitty?  Just makes it even CUTER!
