These super easy baby booties are such a breeze to knit that a set of three would be a perfect gift. I would love if people used this pattern as a starting point to make booties unique to their own inspirations. Change the colors and duplicate stitch designs to make a set of Christmas booties, Jungle booties, Flower Garden booties, Art Deco booties, Pirate booties - the list is endless!

There are so many things you can make with paper, and what a wonderful way to reduce garbage from going into the landfill. In my case, the past couple of years I took about 10 bags of used Christmas
wrapping paper to use just for this purpose. My whole intention is to make a butt load of paper. I found some great sources to guide me along in my journey of becoming a paper-maker. But instead of going there, follow my easy instructions with photos here!

Homemade ornaments are fun, personal and the sky is the limit for your creative juices. This year I opened up an Etsy store called House 129 and have made several ornaments that are rustic, natural, and a bit of whimsy. The Yarn Wrapped Star Ornament is one of those pieces and was inspired by West Elms Yarn-Wrapped Ornament. Today, I’m tickled silly to share the DIY tutorial for this ornament.
Supplies you’ll need include a piece of cardboard, glue gun, scissors, yarn(s) of choice, twine and a star template (the size and shape of your choice personalizes this tutorial).

Easter festivities are about to begin and It is time to start planning for the upcoming Easter holiday! Start your festive preparations by making these cute little Easter Baskets!!!These would also be perfect for Easter gifts! You could also tailor the colors and use it to give Christmas or Valentine's Day gifts.

These baskets are just the right size for your little one to use at the Easter egg hunt.Also, crochet one of these baskets, fill it with flowers and make it a great display item for your Easter themed decorations.

I like making handmade gifts and I think these Easter Baskets are so much better than store bought baskets because handmade gifts do really show that they were made with love!!!
