craft wishes

Yesterday I told you all about how I wished I had more time to craft--an today I am spending my time listing things I wish I could craft {instead of actually crafting.} Sigh. 1. a few of these lovely pillowcases via decor8 would be so perfect for taming my growing stash of vintage sheets.
2. move over barbie dream mansion, the little girl in me wants a doll house suitcase something fierce. the adorableness is killing me (from hartandsew).
3. dottie angel, you've done it again with this whimsical old lampshade...a hangy-me-jig is a lovely name for it too.
4. oh hello friend remains one of my all-time favorite blogs. look at this beautiful book of notes she and her brothers put together for their mom's last chemo treatment!

Thanks for your kind comments about my bow tie boy and my job over the last few days. I swear I'm not just fishing for compliments...God just blesses us amazingly, especially with sweet friends like you.

In other fine news, I had the privilege of sharing a tutorial on how-to rock a little boy bowtie on the fabulous Papernstitch creative blog. You should check out the Papernstitch marketplace sometime also--it showcases some of the best handmade/vintage stuff around. Especially if you're like me and sometimes feel bogged down the plethora of choices when shopping on etsy. Brittni has an awesome eye and has narrowed it down to some really quality, lovely things!
