Etsy Find Friday!

One of my all time favorite websites in the entire world is Etsy. I used to sell items on Etsy and I've always LOVED getting inspiration from there.

There are so many original and creative artists in the world and it's a fantastic site for all those creative cats to showcase (and profit from) their talents...

So...I thought each Friday, I'd end the week with my favorite finds from Etsy.

This week's theme is wall decals:

How cute are these!! I have a large circle with "Ellie" in her room...I will be getting one of these puppies in her new, big-girl room.

By Margot Madison

I also love this alphabet...again...another cute idea for a kid's room.

By Tasty Suite

I absolutely love this quote...I usually see it framed (which I also love) but I like the idea of this being in a kitchen or a just a busy hub of a home where kids (and mommies) tend to stress out!

By ChuckEByrd Wall Art

And for my personal favorite...the simple number decal.

At $4 a number, I think this would be so cute to do a series on glass jars, boxes, plates...

By Lean the Graphics Queen

And just 'cause I thought this was funny (and random)...an apple jacket!!

Easter!!!

I hope y'all had a wonderful Easter! We absolutely did - the Easter bunny came to visit Ellie Sunday morning (sorry - I was too wrapped up in the moment with Ellie to snap some pictures of her basket!!), we had a great day at church, lunch with Jon's parents, and a small Easter egg hunt!

Remember that I mentioned making a jacket for Easter for myself? Well, the pieces are cut, SOME of the jacket is assembled but I really just ran out of time to finish it. SO - I worked with what I had and just added a couple of home-made flowers to a sweater.

I really need to focus more on pictures because I didn't get a full shot of the family in our Easter outfits! But this is what we got:

I WILL continue to work on my jacket and WILL post it once it's finished!

As for my weekend projects - y'all, I'm TRYING to stay crafty but sometimes it's just impossible to get that extra time (and energy) to do anything!! (BUT - I DO think my little fabric flowers count towards my craft project of adding the flowers to a cardigan :) :))

I'm going to work on some more dresses for Ellie this weekend...I feel like I'm saving my bigger and more time consuming projects for the verrrry end...

Here's the fabrics up for this weekend's sewing:
