(Used in this project: Collar Labels, Circle Tags, Round Coasters and Free Printable Cupcake Wrappers in Lil' Bug style.) Life can get busy with family, friends, work, community all vying for time. Nevertheless, when a little person enters the world, it's a good time to slow down and celebrate his arrival. The ceremony will be lost on the new babe, but the joy and happiness that surrounds the family and friends is that certain kind of special that can breathe new energy into days that pass … [Read more...]

herbal-foot-soak-3

(Used in this project: Circle Labels and Scallop Tags in Kashmir style.) Whether your feet contend with high heels, hard floors, and long days or get a workout in runners and gardening clogs, they deserve a little pampering, right? When I come in from the garden in my very favorite gardening flip flops I'm sure to leave a dirt trail behind me. But even after a hot shower and a quick sweep, my feet still ache from the pounding they just took. I made up a herbal foot soak just to pamper my … [Read more...]

Apron in a Jar

A Special Gift for Mother's Day

April 15, 2013 by Leave a Comment
apron-inajar-5

(Used in this project: Large Circle Labels and Oval Tags in Briar Rose style with matching Note Cards.) Sometimes the way a gift is packaged can make it just that much more fun. If you have followed some of my posts in the past, I clearly have an affinity for mason jars. In fact, I have a overflowing collection of vintage or unique canning jars that I pick up from thrift shops or garage sales whenever I see them. Some of the jars are just too pretty to be stuffed with salsa and hidden in … [Read more...]

Bird Seed Wedding Favors

Bird Seed Wedding Favors from My Own Ideas blog #evermine #favor #spring #summer #wedding

(Used in this project: Large Labels in Champagne style and Medium Paper Favor Bags.) Traditionally, wedding guests have thrown rice at the departing bride and groom to bid them fruitfulness. While some couples prefer confetti, rose petals, or even paper airplanes, there is bound to be some clean up involved. Choosing birdseed as a festive send off is a fun way to keep up with the tradition and is completely self cleaning! Your feathered friends will do the work at cleaning up the venue and … [Read more...]

Infused Sugar

infused-sugar-6

(Used in this project: Circle Labels and Small Diamond Tags in Color Wash style.) I always keep a vanilla bean in my sugar jar. I have yet to find a recipe or need for plain old sugar that doesn't get a little lift from a vanilla bean. This got me thinking, "hmmm, I wonder what other yummy flavors you could add to sugar?". A search of the handy dandy internet and I found a plethora of recipe ideas. Rosemary sugar? I've read it's wonderful in apple pie. Cardamom sugar? Delicious on … [Read more...]

(Used in this project: Small Diamond Tags and Rectangle Labels in Swiss Dots style with Large Gift Boxes.) Rub-a-dub-dub, these little bags of tea get steeped in your tub! Given how much my friend's newborn loves her bath time, I thought it was the perfect theme for a baby shower. While baby Simone and mom got a gift basket full of bath time goodies (like these Homemade Bath Fizzies) all the lovely ladies who attended the shower also walked away with a box containing three Lavender Oatmeal … [Read more...]

Mason Jar Sprouting Kit

March 20, 2013 by Leave a Comment
sproutingkit-5

If you are like me, you may find it a bit hard to get through the winter months without fresh grown garden veggies. That's why I started sprouting originally, but this crunchy bean mix has me addicted! It adds a whole lot of flavor and freshness to salads, soups, pasta, and sandwiches, but also packs in a whole lot of nutrition. Each teeny tiny sprout is more digestible than the unsprouted grain, plus it packs in all the nutrients needed to grow that seed into a seedling. No need for a … [Read more...]

Caramel in a Can

caramel-4

Who doesn't love caramel and apples? Come on, gooey, sweet caramel on a tart, crisp apple. What could be better? I admit that I'm feeling biased at the moment as my sticky fingers write this. I'm full of sugary goodness and it's making me giddy. And that's a feeling that should be shared. Good thing I made up a bunch of these cute foodie gifts that I can pass onto my family and friends. This is a really inexpensive gift because all you need is a can of sweetened condensed milk and some … [Read more...]

What better way to brighten up a shower than flowers...and seeds!? Beautiful flower centerpieces planted with a mix of butterfly blend seeds makes for a fun way to display favors. To Make the Seed Packets First, buy a butterfly or bee blend of seeds from your local nursery. They usually contain a mix of perennials and annuals that will grow best in your climate. You can also make your own mix by purchasing seeds for flowers that you or the guests-of-honor love and mixing them yourself. … [Read more...]

Mini Terrariums

mini-terrariums-4

I love going to a wedding to see the unique table decorations that reflect the personality of the happy couple. Terrariums are making a big come back but look completely different than they did in the 1970’s. These mini glass globes are quick and easy to put together and they look impressive clustered on guest tables. Let the guests take one home and they’ve done double duty as wedding favors. They will definitely leave a lasting impression of the special day! Tillandsias are more … [Read more...]
