do something crafty #40
May 17, 2012 By Vanessa 4 Comments
Oh how I love Fridays, when I get to see what you’ve been crafting up all week! Sorry for the serious lack of blogging around here this week, I’ve got some projects in the works to be posted next week so stay tuned.
This week on See Vanessa Craft, I realized that it’s okay not to be perfect and Crystal of A Pumpkin And A Princess stopped by to share her summer bucket list tutorial. Over at Chiquita Moms, I shared 6 DIY outdoor activities for kids (including a fun project for dino enthusiasts). While you’re there, check out Natalie’s frozen Chiquita banana and nutella bites recipe (can you believe I still haven’t tried nutella? I need to remedy that soon) and Angie’s list of 15 items every mom should have in her purse.
Let’s get this party started. Here are the top 3 most clicked on projects from last week’s linky party (feel free to grab a “featured on” button if these belong to you):
cloth headband via blissful sewing
dr. seuss party favors via shy by design
mother’s day cards via crafting in the rain

via pinterest I apologize for not blogging yesterday, I needed a rare night off for myself. Well, myself and Mr. Christian Grey. I finally caved and started reading Shades of Grey...holy moly!

This stuff is awesome, especially for a spring ladybug wreath. The Hair Bow Company sent along a few embellishments to help put the finishing touches on my ladybug wreath. How cute are those crocheted lady bugs?! If I had a little girl, I would throw a … [Read More...]
