Oops...did you forget your green today?

No worries. If you are in the office of getting your kids ready for school print out these labels QUICK. Or be a Patty's Day fairy and give anyone you see without green on a sticker. Nobody wants to be pinched!
They should work with Avery 5160 or 5960
St. Patrick Day Labels





Happy St. Patrick's DAY!

Only 11 More Days...until Christmas

With that said I wanted to Highlight some GREAT handmade artist and crafters that I purchased from this holiday season. So if you are unsure of a gift you MUST check these shops out!
First I would like to introduce you to SILVERLIME

The Silverlime

You might have noticed the icon under my "You have to Check This Out" List on my sidebar. Traci the designer behind Silverlime creates the most unique and amazing pieces of silver jewelry and has a wonderful story behind her passion. She creates necklaces, bracelets and even key chains.

If you don't see what you like no problem she will create a piece of jewelry perfect for you! I would love to show you all what special creation she made for me but it is a gift so I can't post it...just yet. :( (It is worth the wait)! Stay Tuned...Wednesday will be a new Handmade Find!

Holiday Craft Idea


Can I just say WOW.... HOW CUTE ARE THESE!
This is a project I found on Martha Stewart's site the craft is titled Dot Painted China. With the use of a template and Food-safe ceramic paint you can make these beautiful plates. You can find the stencils for this project here.

While I would love to make these for the holidays, time is not on my side so I plan to take the idea of Dot Painting or more like Monogramming and transform old bottles in to dish detergent holders to give away as gifts. A long with the bottles I plan to give some hand towels like above. What gifts do you plan on creating this year? I would love to hear your ideas...comment below.

Ideas for Christmas

It is not too early to start my exploration into holiday crafts for friend and family. Many sites offer great ideas for gifts that are easy on the wallet and add a personal touch. Here is one Idea I am looking into for the holidays A No SEW Jersey Scarf.Find the directions at Altered ClothYou can even use the measurements given and found fabric laying around your house to create a patchwork scarf like the one below from Sew, Mama, Sew who not only created a great example of a patchwork scarf but a great tutorial as well.
