Random Love

Some things that I am loving right now:


1. Remember friendship bracelets? Apparently they are back in style, only now as necklaces and belts.
I love textile jewelry, so I'm digging these. Especially because of all of the bright colors.
Just in case your summer camp memories are as hazy as mine are, here is a wonderful tutorial from Honestly...wtf

2.  An orange hippo pillow! This is Felicia the Hippo, and she is adorable. Do you think she's DIYable?




3. I love notebooks. I love journals. I love sketchbooks. There is just something about a brand new, blank book that makes me feel like the world is full of possibilities.
That's probably why I love this hand-stitched book tutorial from Jen and Jake so much. If your birthday is coming up soon, you can probably expect one of these as a gift from me.




4.  A shadow puppet theater. A homemade one, none-the-less. And a tutorial. Anicka would LOVE this.




5.  Blank nesting dolls! How fun would be to paint a custom set of nesting dolls?



I can sense some projects brewing...

GREAT list! My favorite has to be the blank nesting dolls - I'd love to paint a little family.

Your blog is great, so glad I stumbled across it!
