stamp coasters

Thought these vintage stamp inspired coasters were absolute genius...complete with pinking shears to finish the look! See the tutorial here.

jewel tape

Insanely gorgeous jewel tape...each ring image is based on an actual ring with stones in a variety of colors. I'd love to use some to wrap gifts during the holidays (can you believe it's time to start shopping already?!).

ice cream cone pinata

What a fabulous idea for a party...it's almost too cute to break! Not to mention strawberry is my favorite flavor ever. Read the instructions on how to make here.

cloud rug

What an adorable faux sheepskin cloud rug! And the best part is, it's DIY! Check out the how-to here (she used them to decorate her baby's nursery aww).

P.S. Thanks so much for all of your lovely comments on our engagement photos. Also wanted to say thank you to the lovely girls at Dace Clothing for featuring us on their blog. The dress I wore was from Dace and I love it so much!

fabric pots

I've never used mod podge before but I'm thinking I may need to after seeing these adorable DIY fabric pots!
Such lovely fabrics too...

stitch art

Love these stitched illustrations by Stephen Campbell. I still remember having one of those super easy 'cross-stitch for dummies' kits back in the day...it would take me weeks just to finish one! But boy was I proud...

p.s. i made this

Erica Domesek is the genius behind the blog, "PS-I Made This...", where she finds daily inspiration and translates it into something we can all wear, use or look at. I like how the instructions are numbered and are easy to read and understand (especially for slow learners like myself). Now to find an old t-shirt I don't like anymore...

donut cupcakes

Why hello, perfection...I did not think it was possible to combine my 2 most favorite desserts ever into 1 but I was wrong! Did I mention the cupcake is coffee flavored too? Let the mouth-watering begin!

P.S. Find the recipe here.

DIY bridesmaids cards

I think I pretty much squealed when I saw these adorable DIY bridesmaids cards on Once Wed. Look at those little hair-dos! Anna Bond (of Rifle Design) is a genius, that's for sure. See the rest of the photos and detailed instructions here.

landscape stamp set

Have I told you how much I love stamps yet? Because I do. I like the little bicycle and the little boat best from these stamp sets!

picnic lunch box

What an adorable/genius idea - a DIY picnic lunch box! How cute is that fake grass peeking out around the plate? I know it would certainly make my day if I had that to look forward to during my lunch break...

homemade oreos

Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone enjoyed their long weekend...I know I did!

And omigosh, what I wouldn't give to have a couple of these homemade oreos and a glass of milk this morning...instead of my usual coffee. Find the genius recipe here.

do-it-yourself hermes bag

So it seems it's a double dose of fashion for today...if you've ever wondered what it would feel like to own an Hermes Kelly bag, search no more - their website lets you print and "make" your very own out of paper for free (though you kind of have to search for it)! I like the idea of using one to "wrap" a gift vs. the usual wrapping paper...

Choose from 9 designs - I especially love the 'clouds' and the 'rainbow' (above) ones best. Though I'm pretty sure the 'skulls' design was meant for my friend Kelly (she's crazy for skulls!).

party invites

Whatever happened to the good 'ol fashioned, pre-Evite, printed party invitations that we used to get? Seeing this makes me really want to throw a party...and the best part is it's free to download! Find it here...also another cute one that I like.
