Some Fabulous blogs for craft ideas that I stumbled across last night!

Okay, I'm a self-professed craft nerd, and I'm relatively okay with that- so much so that I got really excited last night when I found some new craft blogs with some awesome ideas that are inexpensive and WAY CUTE!!! I plan on trying to see how I can implement some of them into MOPS crafts for next year, and definitely plan on making some for gifts- I suppose I should do some for myself too, but I always end up making things for gifts instead- since I love to be 'gifty'. Anyhow, check out these fabulous ladies' blogs: it all started at http://ikkiscuttlebugcupboard.blogspot.com/ when I was checking out some of her links at the bottom of the post for Transformational Thursday- where people can link up to their own blogs and such where they've taken something that perhaps might have been trash or Goodwilled, and turn it into something better. I love this idea because I am always happier making something cute out of somthing that would have been landfill somewhere. I think we throw away way too much when it's perfectly useful- often something just needs some imagination and a coat of paint and embellishment. Thanks Ikki, for a great blog! So my blogging travels took me to www.HowDoesShe.com , there's just too much to mention, all I can say (trying to restrain my gushing) is that it's great! That blog featured another fabulous lady's blog - who also loves to make great things out of the inexpensive and also repurpose things to make them great- and this is : http://infarrantlycreative.blogspot.com/ Um yeah, my happy craft nerd dance is seriously grooving right now, which is probably quite the spectacle, but I love new craft ideas!! :) Anyhow, I just thought I'd share since I love new ideas and if you're checking out this blog, chances are it's out of some kind of crafty curiosity too. I hope you check out these fantastic blogs and get a chance to create some of their fun crafts for gifts or even yourself. I'll be sure to post when I get a chance to try some.

  1. Okay, so I'm a dorkfish... ugh.. I was bouncing off so many blogs from one to another last night that I gave mis-information.. I got the links for the other blogs from The Shabby Chic Cottage (on the sidebar in My Blog List)... However, I encourage you to check out Ikki's Cuttlebug Cupboard anyway because she's a fabulous source for doing anything and everything with the Cuttlebug and embossing and all that! That's what I get for blog-hopping at night, can't keep things straight- of course I can't keep things straight anyway.. :)
