Spoonflower - Fabric LOVE

I cannot say enough awesome things about Spoonflower! You can upload your own designs and print with yards of fabric NO minimums. In addition to the a fore mentioned awesomeness, you can purchase most of the other designs uploaded on the site. I've included two of my favs below from Olive Manna.

Heather Ross is also on here, BLISS! Do you have a favorite fabric designer you've spotted on here? Please share in the comments!

Here's what we made!

{ I promise I'll post some stuff about fall & winter wedding trends next week }

FREE Printable Tiara

Lily and I are going to do this today ... I'm so excited! I've got glitter, sparkle pom-poms, gems and more, what more could a two year old ask for? :) This is what you'll need for this project:

1. Skinny Headband
2. Mini Hole Puncher
3. Heavy Cardstock
4. Decorations!

For an even more finished look, trace the pattern over two pieces of felt and sew together. I'll post some pictures of what we make this weekend. You can purchase the other templates you see above at my Etsy store, FREE Printable Princess Crown.

Car Seat Stroller

This is the best thing ever. You strap your heavy, awkward car seat to this thing and VOILA! It's a car seat stroller! This is a must have for any mom/toddler duo making their way through an airport. You can get this on Amazon or check out the links at the top right of the page!

Knot & Bow - Etsy Love

This is one of my favorite shops on Etsy. Simple, and elegant items that you can use for almost anything. Here a my top three picks from this shop right now: (1) fabric ribbon, (2) mini pins & (3) mini gift tags.

If you like the look and feel of the items in this shop, you'll also love Olive Manna. Check out some of their cute items here:

Birthday Party Time!

So I've already started planning for little miss Lily's THIRD birthday party (I can't believe that!). I've chosen to do a pink and yellow lemonade stand party. I got this inspiration from Wild Sorbet & UCreate.

You can find a tutorial on how to create this awesome stand at Ucreate. Ucreate is a fun blog that's full of fun stuff to look at and do :) Check it out.

Now all I have to do is decide how I elaborate on this theme and turn it into a cool kids party!

Here's what I've got so far - My friend over at MommyLovesPretty had a tie dye party this weekend and I made these cool ombre favor bags. MLP has some other pictures and info on tie-dying.

Here's an idea I have for the cake too from Call Me Cupcake:

Here's the map!

This is what the map looks like when I've drawn it all out :) Pretty neat, huh?
