Easter: A few days later

All the Easter candy may be gone, but the decorations are still around.

Graham Crackers

My sister posted on Facebook that she made graham crackers. Yes, that's right, made them ... as in from scratch! They sounded tasty, and like something I should know how to do, so inquired about her recipe of choice. She sent me the link to smitten kitchen's recipe. Its rainy here today; I think its the perfect weather for homemade graham crackers and a cup of tea. I can almost smell the cinnamon-y honey goodness. Better start baking!

Stencils

I had forgotten about Sunny's Goodtime stencils until today when I was looking for a potential stenciling project! Wow do I love this elephant stencil! It reminds me of Rickshaw Design's newest bedding collection! What a cute accent to a little girl's room. Possibly pink or lavender painted walls with gold elephants stenciled. Too cute!

Small project, cute results!

Another day ... another cute tutorial. This time found on Leslie's blog - A Room Somewhere.

I could see this method being used on a vintage mirror with cute feminine details. Or on this Ikea frame (replace the glass with a mirror).

More ruffles

More ruffles ... this time for little girls! Too cute!

There is also a tutorial for the flowers. I think that these flowers would be perfect along the neckline and button closure of a woman's cardigan.

Oh, and wait... there are more cute dresses here.

Inspired yet??? I am!

Stylish Storage

Quite stylish storage, I must say!

Making a list

I have a long list of things I want to sew and create in the near future.

This style bag was just added to the list...

I love the burlap handles and the shape. Super cute for the Spring! I'm thinking this fabric... an old favorite of mine. The tote will need to be able to hold magazines, a design binder, fabric samples and blueprints.
