{Lifestyle Crafts Review} DIY Holiday Gift Tags

0 · · 7 Comments

Far be it from me to put a rush on things… but whether we like it on not, the HOLIDAYS are around the corner!! My motto this year {yes, I am borrowing it from the Boy Scouts} BE PREPARED. The only way that we are going to be able to create a fun handmade holiday season is to start now and this is the perfect project to get a head start on… Holiday Gift Tags.

How many times have the gift tags become a forgotten item in the holiday decor?  Even worse, you are stuck with a store bought tag when you know that you could make some sooooo much better.

Friday Flair Features & a WINNER

2 · · 9 Comments

I am back from a whirlwind weekend in Denver full of all kinds of FUN!!  First, I taught some exciting classes at one of the most amazing fabric shops in the Denver area… Snappy Quilts!!  If you live in Denver I am telling ya, this should be your new fabric Taj Mahal {yes it's seven wonders worthy!!}  After the Snappy Quilt gig I spent Saturday at Bloggy Boot Camp put on by the aaaamazing SITS Girls!  Phenomenal is all I can say about this event.  Tiffany and Francesca know how to put on a blogging conference that is fun, inspirational and very informative. I HIGHLY recommend their one day conference for anyone who is interested in learning the ins & outs of how to create a successful blog. So… That's why our fabulous features are a little late today!  I got in late last night and had to jump back into being Mom so this had to wait until the bus left for school.  I'm sure you all understand! 

 

Here with out any further chit chat from my end…

This is what Caught my eye this week! {stick around… we have a winner announced at the end of the post!}

{Guest Post} Maybe Matilda – Button Up Cowl

155 · · 17 Comments

I am soooo excited to have Rachel from Maybe Matilda over to play today!  I LOVE everything about this girl and know that you will too!
Hi! It's me again, Rachel from Maybe Matilda. It was a very exciting day for me when I was on Whipperberry a few weeks ago as part of the Who I Am series . . . and I think being here again today, with a tutorial for you this time, just might put me over the edge!
 
If you read my little mini-bio from the Who I Am post, you know that I love to crochet (enough to fill up an etsy shop and still not be tired of it!), but it is, admittedly, a bit of a slow craft. And sometimes you really just want to have a project started and finished within a few minutes so you can sit back and bask in the warm glow of instant gratification. With that in mind, here's a cute winter cowl for the lazy crocheter!
