Five Things Friday #4 {Fruit}

Mar 8, 2012

Happy Friday everyone!
Yep! It's time for another:

This week's theme is:

This idea from Smashed Peas and Carrots just had to be #1! Such a fantastic idea!

These Citrus Fruit Coasters from the Purl Bee are so creative! 

Mini Spring Easter Basket {from paper}

Mar 7, 2012

Based off of this pin here, I made a knock-off and came up with an Easter basket.
It is super easy and would make a great gift for a friend!

Supplies:
6x6 inch square of cardstock (mine's double-sided color)
Scoring tool
Glue
Pastel/'Spring color' ribbon (I got my cute green ribbon from here)
Pastel buttons
circle punch
Scissors


Score two inches in vertically. Then score four inches in. Once you've done one side, flip it around and do the other side.
 Cut into the scoring marks.
 Now cut the two middles into a triangle and each end flap into thirds
 Now fold each flap in, and fold the triangle up.
Glue the punched (or cut out) circle over the tip

 Now do both sides and add a handle (I stitched mine on, but you could also glue it)
Voila!

I had a fun time taking photos of my basket....











Happy Wednesday!

Five Things Friday #3 {Ombre}

Mar 2, 2012

I recently found out about Ombre from The CSI Project. That was this week's contest theme!
(I got into the top ten for my Ombre Napkin Rings!!! The button is in the left sidebar)
If you are unfamiliar with Ombre, you can find the definition here.

So, now I welcome you to the third Five Things Friday!!!

And now (if you haven't already guessed), today the theme is:

I just love this Ombre Mug from Christine & Co! So fun!

Ruffle cake with ombre effect.
I adore this Grey Ruffles Ombre cake from Superfine Bakery!

This gradient Anthropologie inspired desk from Sister of the Wild West is so cute!
