I hope y'all are finding lots of inspiration in the New Year!!!
CRAFTINESS
- Mop Shoes - I don't mop nearly as often as I should. Would this make it more fun?
- Mosaic Star - This would be a great way to put a layer cake or honey bun (1.5" strips) to work.
- DIY Rug - A less labor-intensive alternative to a dropcloth rug.
- Argyle Pillow - I love argyle on my socks. How could I not love it on a pillow?
- Sturdy Stylin' Firewood Carrier - that would look a lot better than a stack of old logs on the corner of the fireplace, right?
- Subway Map Quilting - I really want to try out this quilting design. It's like stippling, but with edges.
FOOD
- Tortellini Spinach Tomato Soup - Pair with a loaf of French bread for the best winter meal ever.
- Fat Fluffy Snickerdoodles - cookies!
LIFE
- Post-Production Tips for your Crafty Photos - Before I started blogging, I never would have guessed taking photos of inanimate objects was such an art. Now I try to absorb as much wisdom as I possibly can when it comes to taking crafty photos.
- The 56 Best/Worst Analogies of High School Students - This made the rounds a few years ago, but I think it's been updated with new ones. It's hilarious. I laughed so hard I cried.
- 7 Easy Photoshop Fixes for your Family Photos - in case you're still editing all the Christmas photos you took.
- 7 Surprising Areas Where You'll Be Happier with Less - Is it just me, or is everyone de-cluttering right now?
HOLIDAYS
- Window Ornament Holder - this is adorable.
- A Lined Stocking with a Cuff - the cuff makes the stocking, y'all.
- Easy Stocking Tutorial - can you tell I was thinking about making stockings month? fyi - it never happened.
- Heather Peterson's House at Christmastime - I love it when Heather shows photos of her house! She does a great job of incorporating quilts into her decor.
Megan, if all I read on your list was the analogies by high school students, it would be worth it - but there's lots of good stuff on here tonight! Love the list of things you can give up, and the firewood carrier, but I've got to stop laughing, or I won't be able to do anything else!! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI am SO making stockings with that easy stocking tutorial. I mean, I've already made them for my family, but for gifts. So simple and brilliant. You could totally add interfacing or embellishments before sewing them together. Would have to figure out where to add a hanging loop to the side seam though.
