Link Love


Trick out Your Tote with this crazy SIMP and Genius TUTE to doil-ify a thrift store bag.

This is LITERALLY one of the smartest birthday parties ever. Would love this as a nerdy-fab bridal shower. So many adorable elements!

Make it and Love it is just starting up a Learn to Knit Mini-Series with Rebecca Danger

Jaros Designs shares a Split Stitch Embroidery Tutorial. My personal favorite embroidery stitch, I might add.

ALSO...


The lovely Little Ladies Who Lunch are guaranteed to drag you out of your lunch packing rut.


Love the Bias Tape Maker? What should be next?
Simplicity Creative Group, known for innovative, time-saving, machines that make crafting, needlework, sewing, quilting and crafting easier, is looking for the next big idea and wants to hear from you! Submit an original idea for a new machine, gadget or new use for one of our existing machines and win prizes up to $1,000 U.S.* Please see the redesignme website for details.

Lego comedy. I die.

Brand new sponsor, The Little Things, showcases a selection of beautiful jewelry and photographs. Perfect for gift giving or keeping!

LovelyDesign goes crazy with a button maker for her daughter's birthday party. Jaime and I once worked at a magical company and often amused ourselves with the button maker. Makes me think the Prudent Baby corporate office might need one.

The Company Store has a new initiative to support art education and charitable work among America's youth: the Kids’ Design Contest. Children 12 years and under can submit original artwork. The winning piece will be transformed into a comforter print for their ongoing Buy One, Give One Comforter Donation Program, in which The Company Store donates a new comforter to a homeless child for every comforter sold. Submissions can be uploaded to Facebook.


What links do you love this week? Last chance to leave a comment and maybe win a yard of my precious Pom pom trim!

The split stitch looks so easy after checking out that tute. Why was I so afraid? Lol. I am loving embroidery lately!

Um, i think the oatmeal needs to add a category for trying to see how many legos we could shove up our nose... but other than that, pretty accurate. :)

$1000 for the next big idea that would make them far more than $1000? If it's an idea for a new machine, save it, y'all, and make it yourself!

Also - I adore that book party idea. Though I'd have to (fell some more trees) and make copies of stuff because no matter how outdated the book or no-longer-read, I just don't think I could ever cut up any book. Feels wrong. Though the arts and crafts made from them are GORG!
