One of the "dangers" of doing this post every week is that I find so many things I want to make! I've found that if I copy the info into a word doc and save it in the corresponding folder, when I come back later, I can pick my favorites (instead of trying to make every single one at once!)
Enjoy :-)
Tammys Sweet Spot gives a great idea for making alphabet magnets. These would be a wonderful teaching tool and very easy to make.
Over at
Creations By Kara, she gives a really easy tutorial for baby wash clothes. You can follow the same general guidelines to also make burp cloths and even the warm fuzzy blankets. I have some baby showers to go to in the coming months, I think I need to get sewing!
This recipe card holder from
Lifes Sweeter with Chocolate is adorable and would make a great Christmas or Birthday gift. Include some of your favorite recipes written out or typed up on cute recipe cards. (I hope my sisters-in-law don't ready this . .LOL)
Here is an adorable Crayon wreath that is super easy to make. It is another great teacher gift idea - it would look cute on the classroom door!. Check out the full tutorial
hereOver at
Big Sis Lil Sis is a great idea, again with crayons, but this one is a way to recycle all of those broken crayons. It is easy and would be great for both home and a classroom. In the case of the tutorial, she actually purchased a new box from the Dollar Store to create these toddler sized crayons.
Finally, over at
Serving Pink Lemonade she gives the beginning of a tutorial for something called a quiet book. I've seen these before and like the concept - it would be something great for my kids to use any time we have to sit somewhere - whether it be the doctor's office or a church service. I'm going to be following this one closely and hope to be able to make one book for each of my boys - we'll see!
Once again, tons of great ideas out there.
Happy Crafting!
