These handprint lilies are so beautiful and surprisingly easy to make! They'd make such a thoughtful handmade gift idea for Mother's Day if you make a small bouquet and tie them together with a ribbon.

Either way, they're adorable for spring and they're a wonderful low mess craft to make with the kids! I had such an awesome helper when I made these paper handprint lilies!

It's that time of year when bunnies and chicks and eggs are popping up EVERYWHERE! Except for in my backyard of course since, well, we still have about 6' of snow out there. Although, now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure there's a small family of rabbits who live out in our bushes. When I was walking my 5 year old to school this morning there were fresh bunny footprints on the sidewalk that we were following. I was so tempted to tell her they were the Easter Bunny's footprints. But I didn't, because somehow in my mind, the
Spring is finally here! Maybe it's been spring for awhile where you are, but I live in Canada, so it takes a little bit longer to warm up where I am. And my oh my, have I ever missed the flowers and the leaves! I love walking my 6 year old daughter to school each morning and seeing the magnolias just ready to bloom, the buds on the trees just ready to burst and the bright yellow forsythia flowers highlighting our backyard. I love this time of year! And since I've been in such a wonderful spring mood, I decided to make

I love hunting down the perfect stocking stuffers for my boys, and this might be one of my favorites ever. It's the perfect size for a stocking, and a great travel toy for little hands (which will be perfect for holiday traveling). Our biggest boy is really into Star Wars, which means our second boy also thinks it's the bees knees, and the little one wants whatever his big brothers have. And so I ended up making three sets! But if the little guys should decide they aren't interested in Ewoks, the hood comes off to leave a fuzzy little bear. It took a few hours to make all three sets, but they were super affordable so it was worth the effort! I put a rope bridge between the trees so it would look more like an Ewok village, but you can leave that out if you're going for a bear or other animal You can find more of our DIY Christmas gift and decor ideas by clicking here: I've seen several cute little felt playsets on etsy, but the price puts them out of our stocking budget (especially when I need three sets). Thank goodness for DIY! My bear is inspired by one bybido made for an altoid set using this mollie makes template. But I altered it to look more Ewok-ish so I'm including that in my printable pattern as well. You can change the shape and placement of the ears to make all kinds of animals! Or make it all white for a polar bear or black and white for a panda bear. Here's what I used to make mine (feel free to switch out any colors you want!): Altoid Tins - I ordered this set of 6 on Amazon for $11 and still have three left over Felt colors (usually about $0.25/sheet at craft stores): light blue - sky medium green - ground & tree tops dark green - tree tops medium brown - tree trunks, bear body light brown - bear accents dark brown - bridge dark gray - cave outside off-white - tent gray - blanket/mat whatever color you want for the hood - I used red, green, and blue matching thread - I used light brown, dark brown, green, off-white, and colors to match the hoods *note: I doubled up the thread for all the hand sewing. small piece of elastic (optional) black embroidery floss E600 glue the pattern Start by printing the pattern. I don't have the computer skills to make it all fancy - I literally just traced my pieces with a sharpie. But it should do the job. :) Cut out the sky (light blue), tree trunks (medium brown), bridge (dark brown) and tree tops (medium & dark green). Arrange the tree trunks on the sky and set the tree tops on top of them. Sew down the middle of each tree trunk with light brown thread (I hand-sewed this but it would be easy to do with a machine if you prefer), then each tree top with green thread. Lay the bridge pieces between the trees and sew them with dark brown thread. I ran a long stitch from the center of one board to the center of the next to make it look more like ropes. Next sew the tent to the tent back with off-white thread. If you end up with a little extra tent at the end (I did) just clip it off. Sew the tent to one end of the ground piece. Glue the ground (with the tent) into the bottom of the tin, and glue the sky piece into the lid. I used E6000 glue for this and it hasn't budged! To make the mat/blanket you can just cut out the gray felt piece and put it in the set as-is, or you can add a small loop of elastic so the mat can be rolled up. I just sewed a loop to one end like this: Then you can roll the mat and wrap the loop around: Perfect for tucking in your little bear! Now for the bear/Ewok. Cut out all the bear body parts (medium brown) and the face, tummy and ears (light brown). Place the face and tummy on the front body and sew around the edges. Make the eyes and nose with the black embroidery felt. I'll tell you now, this is probably not the way to do it but I don't know how to embroider and it worked. I cut a piece of floss a few inches long and tied a triple knot in the middle: Then I used an embroidery needle to feed each end through on either side of where I wanted the nose: And tied the ends together on the back: I did the same thing to make the eyes. Then I used regular brown thread to make a little smirky smile on his face. Now you can put the whole bear together. Lay out the bear back and stack the arms and legs on top of it (each arm and leg is two pieces of felt stacked together to make them a little thicker). Also put the light brown ears over the back ears, even though I don't show it here. Stack the bear front on top. Make sure he has a face. I make this mistake on my first bear and he did not turn out so good when I tried to add the face at the end. Use a needle and thread to whipstitch around the edge of the front body. This will join all the limbs and the ears to the body. Then stitch around the arms and legs. To make the hood, stack the two pieces and sew the edges between the two ears, and between each ear and arm. You need to leave the ear openings open, and leave the the part that goes over his arms open. I put it on the bear while I did it to get a good fit, but you have to be very careful not to sew through the bear if you want the hood to be removable. This was the bad face I tried to add after I made the bear. Yikes. You're done! All the pieces tuck inside for fun on the go. Just smoosh down the tent and everything else fits next to it. Ta-da! That's it! Now go get started, Christmas will be here before you know it! And don't forget to check out the rest of our Christmas projects here: What gifts are you making this year?

Har ni sett filmen Trolls? Själv är jag uppväxt med penntroll och det värmer ett mammahjärta att se dem igen. Idag pysslar vi egna Trolls, eller penntroll, av toarullar. Det är ett pyssel som inte kräver massa dyra material men väl lite fingerfärdighet. Trollens hår är perfekta att öva saxmotorik på. Blir frisyren för kort är det bara att byta ut håret och börja om! Ni behöver färgat papper, toarullar, klister och sax. Vi har också använt självhäftande ögon, men det går lika bra att måla ögonen direkt på rullen med en penna. Pappret vi använder är origamipapper och finns i vår låda från Make & Create. Origamipappret är lagom tjockt att jobba i och kommer i många härliga färger. Börja med att täcka rullen med det pappret som ska vara ansiktsfärg. Limma sedan på ett papper som ska funka som hår. När limmet torkat är det dags för ögon, nästa och mun. Våra ögon är självhäftande och lätta att sätta på. Näsan har vi klipp till av ett annat papper. Klipp öronen dubbla med flikar, som på bilden. På så sätt är det lätt att klistra på dem på rullen. Nu kommer det roligaste momentet – klippa hår! Klipp […]
10 random things I am in love with right now 1. Loving the idea of going here. 2. Loving this Christmas Tree decoration made from scrap metal and funnels. No, unfortunately I was not the one that bought it. There were three in the booth of different sizes and they were all sold by the time I got there. I wasn't smart enough to ask her for a business card either! 3. Loving this giant Christmas tree Loving this idea that was created for Free People. If you look close you can see it has forks and spoons, a vice, a CD, etc....this could totally be adapted in small scale. Spray painting things the same color is the key! 4. Loving these easy ornaments Love that they are made from old comic books but that's not something I have, so thinking about old music paper with a long crystal hanging from the bottom. 5. Loving these giant chalk letters I picked up at Ruby Rose 6. Loving this bottle brush tree display. I am not a pink person but look how good they look mixed with the green and creme trees. Oh, how I LOVE a good group of objects. It doesn't matter whether it's Christmas trees or balls of string, it always looks better in quantity. 7. Always love these gift wrap buckles. 8. Loving this clever advent calendar made from large craft sticks. 9. Loving these headbands (I have already bought 3...all the nieces wore them on Thanksgiving!) 10. Loving this bag I know its not Christmasie, but I would like it for Christmas, does that count? Oh, and one more thing...For all you out there that are working diligently on your advent calendars...I have the small forks for tag 4 and a few diamond buckles for tag 10. They are $3 each with 50 cents shipping. We also have been collecting pictures of finished calendars...so many unique ideas. We hope to post later in the month so if you feel like sharing what you have accomplished then email deb at [email protected] or me at [email protected]. Now I am off to the work table. Have a great weekend! p
