Succulent Giveaway

Happy Friday All! There’s a great giveaway going on at Prudent Baby for some absolutely fabulous succulents. Which I love, mainly its the un-killable factor that I love. Anywho to enter to win just post a comment before 12/22 about your funniest un-green thumb experience. Here’s mine:

My Birthday Gift!

My Birthday was this past Sunday, Decemeber 6th. I turned a WHOLE QUARTER OF A CENTURY! Pretty nifty, eh? And my oh so awesome boyfriend got me this lovely Singer Sewing Machine. Something Ive been wanting for awhile but of course, would never ever splurge on myself on a purchase like this. So it makes this an even more awesome gift because he knows that I would never buy it. And now my new machine sits on my desk waiting to make things. And oh the things I want to make! I dont even know where to start! And I have to admit I’m pretty intimated because I’ve never actually used a sewing machine before.

I love this adorable applique dress I spied over at Cakies. I bet I could try something similar. So cute. I’m sure my nieces would each love one!

Then there’s the headband project from Prudent Baby. This one seems like a good starter project I think. And I do believe I have some cute scrap fabric pieces at home somewhere.

Plus there’s aprons, curtains, mittens, pillo wcases, agh! So many things I want to make. Can’t wait to get started! 🙂

RedVelvetart

I stumbled across this site while researching for an upcoming project yesterday. I really dig their site design. So original and fun! Plus, at redvelvetart you can buy some lovely handmade goods which is always good!

Packaging Galooooooore!!

I’ve been researching some packaging to get inspired for an upcoming project and I found TONS of cool stuff. Of course via The Dieline and Lovely Package.
