My Friday Finds . . .

 

 

A few of the things I find each week that pique my interest and inspire me to want to do, create, become, etc. Maybe they will also inspire you!    

 

 Now this is a really nice idea.  A DIY Wood Slice Cheese Tray.  I love it.  From the people at BH&G.  Looks easy enough and quite unsual. 

 

 

I love these painted flowerpot pin cushions!  They are adorable.  Easy also.  No source, just eye candy, but they look so easy to do you wouldn't need much in the way of instruction. 

 

Flora Needlebook Pattern.  A downloadable PDF from Etsy.  The shop is called mmmcrafts.  I really like this. 

 

Easy to sew DIY Washcloth Travel pouches for holding your toothpaste, etc.  From Whimsey Love.  

 

Cardboard Box Play houses for kids, using leftover wall paper, etc.   Love it!  From A Beautiful Mess. 

 

From Ravelry.  Tawashi Knot Dish Cloth pattern.  A great way to use up scraps.  Love it! 

 

Union Jack Tea Cosy Pattern.  Free if you buy yarn.  I like this. You can also buy the pattern for a nominal fee.   From Love Knitting. 

 

From Lime Riot.  I love this.  Its such a pretty thing and so simple.   I think it is the simplicity of it which I love most. 

 

Tips for creating a stitch sampler.  I love Samplers.  From Needle N Thread.  I used to love doing samplers in Counted Cross Stitch.  

 

I love this scarf.  It looks easy to do  and you could do it in any colour you wanted to do it in.  From A Crocheted Simplicity.  Free pattern. 

 

More Eye Candy.  Found on Tumbler.  No instructions.  Just inspiration.  Its so pretty. 

 

Pipe Cleaner Flowers for Spring.  How very cheery!  From One Little Project.   Sweet! 

 

Just look at these adorable knitted chicks!  I love them.  Found on Mochi Mochi Land.  A free pattern. 

 

Decoupage inside your drawers.  Love those drawer pulls.  From Dishfunctional Designs.  Clever name. 

 

Paper Bow Templates in four different sizes.  I love paper bows.  You can put them on anything.  From Lia Griffith. 

 

Make your own Mason Jar Tissue Holder.   Such a simple idea.  From Land Lee Lu. 

 

Great idea! Fabric attached to the wall with liquid starch...peels right off if you move. Awesome for rental homes and dorm rooms. From Fabric Street Designs. 

 

How to do a String Tree Wall Mural.   Wouldn't family photos be great with this.  Found on  Apartment Therapy. 

 

Just look at this genius idea.  Stencil a tree on a wall, attach hanging knobs and presto chango, you have a unique and interesting way to hang towels in a bathroom.  (Or coats in a hallway, etc.)  From Houzz. 

 

Look alike Stained Glass, using glass pebbles from the dollar store.  From Knick Naks and Ric Rak.   I love it!  

 

How to turn Washi Tape into stickers. Did you know that you could stick washi tape on wax paper (or freezer paper), punch shapes and use the cut-outs as stickers on cards & scrapbook pages.  I could not find a source. 

 

If you are in to Scrapbooking, here is a source for free printable journaling cards.  Found on Digiscrap Freebies. 

 

I haven't tried this but I am going to.  Places to find photographs of your ancestors.  We shall see.  Found on Crestleaf.  I would love to find photos of any of my ancestors. 

 

A paper card printable antique truck.  I bet I know a little boy who would love cutting and pasting these together.   Found on  Flickr. 

 

Springtime coasters.  Crochet.  Free tutorial.  Maise Hutton.  Simple rounds embroidered. 

 

With some artificial, or paper flowers, a cardboard letter base and some glue, you too could have a beautiful flowered letter/initial, etc.   I love this idea.  Found on The Mrs and Momma Bird. 

 

Do you know somebody who has been ill and could use a "pick me up?"  Maybe not now, but someday you might.  I love this idea for a DIY Care Package with a printable tag.  From  The Polka Dot Chair. 

 

 I love it!  A Melted Mason Jar Spoon Rest.   Everything Turquoise.  Not to do, to buy. 

 

Dyed Clothespins.   I can't wait for hanging out the clothes weather.  Nothing smells better.  KOJO Designs.  

And those were my finds for this week. I hope that there was something here that piqued your interest also!
