M.M.M. #117

Sorry for my lack of partying these last 2 Monday’s. We changed our tickets and stayed in London for a few extra days. (Go USA!) We were able to see all of the gymnastics! Without further ado, let’s par-tay!

1. I love this sweet and simple bow for a bun from tousled day.

2.Turn a plastic cup into a picture frame snowflake for your Christmas tree from make it easy crafts!

3. I love the best of everything’s idea to skip the chips and use bell pepper scoops for dip!

4. This origami as garland from meeha meeha is ah.door.able. Beach party, baby shower, pool party, nautical bedroom… I can think of so many fun uses!

5. My life in Nambia made tetrahedron pillows. I love how they turned out and feel like they would be great lounging and reading or hugging g pillows.

6. This Indian inlay table makeover from domestic imperfection is rocking my world right now. You must see the before. #needit

7. The 7 year cottage turned a twinkie into a hot dog. FUN! Perfect for April Fools

8. Wicked cheap spruced up a pair of plain sneakers. Perfect for back to school!

Package Pal Round Up (June 2012)

Jul 25 posted by Jamie Dorobek

For those of you who don’t know, Package Pals (PP) is a pen pal-ish crafty exchange that happens ~~every other month~~ 4 times a year here on C.R.A.F.T. ! (February, April, July, October) The goal was to offer a crafty exchange as often as possible (becuase I think they’re so fun!), and I know Craftaholics Anonymous does a gift exchange twice a year (her next one is in November), so hers + mine = 6! I just can’t keep up with the every other month thing. I’m going to test out the 4 times a year scenario and go from there. We’ve already done 3 this year, and I love that a few people have aprticpated in ALL 3! Thank you! So, the next PP sign ups, and last for 2012, will be at the end of September for the month of October. See lots more info here.

Onwards, to the overdue June PP Round Up…! Click the button below if you want to see all the June PP that were linked up.

My very favorite part of package pals is the linky party and then showing off the greatness in the round up! Here are some of the awesome crafty packages sent and received in June 2012.

Amy sent Jenna this adorable canvas…

I love the anchor stneciled pillow Jenna sent Amy!

Julia also sent a s[pecial pillow to her PP, Meaghan… It’s double sided and are both states where Meaghan and her fam have lived!

June Package Pals

Katie made her PP a candle in a tea cup! Katie’s daighter even particpated and made a pot holder to send because their PP likes to cook

Stephanie sent Ellen a peacock inpired clock… wow!

Thank you to everyone who put together a thoughtful, sweet package for your PP! I love reading the inspiration behind the package. (Shannon sent Chacoy craft supplies that Chacoy and her son will enjoy together!) Remember to look for the next PP sign up post at the end of September for the exchange to happen in the month of October.

Add some spunk to your summer wedges like made in a day did with a little painted stripe action!

I love this giant coffee filter flower with a lace middle made by Christina’s adventures for her soon to be SIL’s bridal shower!

Y’all know I love a good Olympic craft, and all you need for this one by meaningful mama is 5 paper plates and some paint!

Start working on that handmade Christmass idea now! I love these sweet little bird ornaments made out of treetlimbs from sewing barefoot…

These soda can garden decorations from crafty soccer mom are the perfect C.R.A.F.T.!
