Oh, Deer!

Deer heads on the wall make me cringe, but this artistic take on the deer head is just my style! In rubyslounge you will find these amazing creations made from resin...so no animals are injured. I even showed my brother who does hunt, and he said, "That's actually really cool." There it is...the official stamp of approval.

I Spy Something Wonderful!

In a world where everything seems to boop, bonk, and bang, I really appreciate a quiet toy once in a while. These "I Spy" bags from baileygirlsboutique are perfect. On the back is a list of tiny items hidden inside. Kids have to find all of the items by manipulating the beads inside. It keeps them entertained and is perfect for those summer road trips...if you can afford the gas money to go anywhere!

A Rose So Sweet

For those that love to get in on the crafting at Etsy, there are many great tutorials for purchase. One of the latest from hairbowswonderworld is a hot seller. The owner, Lynn, creates fantastic flowers and is willing to share her secrets. The reviews from those that purchased the instructions are fantastic, and they have caused some well deserved buzz in the hair bow making community! Check the shop often for new tutorials and creations.

Pinafores Galore!

Take a look at this Mod Girl Pinafore from humblebea. Too cute! The ways to wear it are endless, so your little girl can add her own touch of flair. My daughter would probably want to wear her Tigers jersey underneath, but I think we could negotiate!

For The Little Rays of Sunshine

Tis the season for shading baby's little noggin from the sun. I can think of no better way than a cute hat from pogibabies. This self-taught seamstress has excellent taste in design!

Hint Hint...

Well, I'm back after an "Itsy Bitsy" break and ready to review more great finds from Etsy! These charms shown are from Joyfully Crafted, and I've already hinted to my hubby that this would be a great Mother's Day gift for me! I made sure to let him know exactly how I would like them customized. I promise to act surprised!

Update: I received my charm necklace and love it! I get a ton of compliments on it!

A Sweet Creation

Look at this darling felt food bake set! It includes everything that a little girl needs to whip up tasty treats for her next tea party. The "dough" with the cut outs is beyond cute! This would make a great gift from the Easter bunny. (He can find it at aebaby.)

A Bucket Full of Memories

I really LOVE this baby milestone can! It is such a clever idea! Busy moms can jot down those precious memories quickly and toss them in the can. When it is time to fill out the baby book, they can just grab the notes from the can and transfer the milestones that otherwise could have been forgotten. The can is also large enough to hold baby's first lock of hair, first pair of shoes, or other items you want to keep forever. You can find these at makpaperdesigns.

Toot Toot!

Ok, I'm tooting my own horn a bit, but I just listed these fun bookmarks in my shop Lily-Pie Designs. After taking a very small break lately, I am proud of myself for hopping back on the craft wagon! These bookmarks make great gifts! Stay tuned for more new designs...

An Apple a Day

This amazing paper box is the creation of Favor Makers. They make favor boxes for every event. I'm also a big fan of their new polkadot teapot box.

Spicey!

Check out this modern spice rack from purposedesign. The test tubes are attached by magnets to the mountable frame, so they are easy to use...and look really cool too!

Double the Doodles

This two sided vase features fresh and fun designs from Dishfuls Of Doodles. All designs are handpainted. A variety of platters and dishes are available. These would make a fantastic wedding gift!
