Happy Sunday! I don’t usually post on the weekend, but there is so much news to share this week that I figured I would start a day early.
First up, I am honored to be the guest judge at The CSI Project this week! I hope you’ll stop by to learn more about the challenge. It’s a fun one! You can learn even more by listening to the podcast here.
Secondly, I recently participated in a fun craft gift exchange at Happy Hour Projects. I was paired up with DJ’s Sugar Shack, and it was such a treat to be matched with such a creative blogger. She has lots of incredible treats on her blog, and her passion for baking and blogging inspired the gifts I made for her. The exchange has happened and now it’s time to show and tell about our gifts.
Since Dawn bakes, I couldn’t resist making little blue whisk earrings and a whisk pendant. (tutorial here)
Next up, some spool label holders. I hope she can use these to hold labels for baked goodies in a display or on her blog. Otherwise, they make cute photo holders! (tutorial coming soon)
My next gift was a chalkboard easel. I thought she could use this to label her goods in a display or use the clip to hold recipes. She likes poppies and the color blue, so I tried to incorporate those elements in my design. (tutorial here)
The last photo shows a magnet board I made that she can hang up or put on an easel to use as a recipe holder. (tutorial TBA)
Finally, I gave her some hair clips and a ring embellished with cabochon flowers (not pictured).
I hope she liked her gifts! Thanks to Dawn for partnering with me and to Adrianne for hosting the exchange. I look forward to the next one!
Thank you for visiting my corner! I’d love for you to follow via Facebook or Google Friends to keep up with my latest projects!
Oh, such cute gifts! Can’t wait to see what she made you!
