Friday Links

I promised Friday Links this week, and I'm really proud of what I have to share with you! I've worked hard to gather lots of fun stuff to make up for missing out on last week. Hope you find something you like. Have a great weekend...enjoy!

Candy Colored Christmas @ artsy-crafty babe
I love looking at other people's holiday decorations...and these are fantastic. I love her little swirly tree.

(Free Download) Animals of the World Coloring Pages @ Louise Elliott Design
Love these. My mom was right when she said these would be awesome in embroidery.

How to Make a Snowstorm @ Craftstylish
Out of dental floss and sticky dots!

Explore Pop-Up Books! @ Robert Sabuda
Something tells me my sister will like this...! Lots of stuff to look at, and some free downloads to make some for yourself.

Chocolate Pillows Recipe @ Better Homes and Gardens
These look amazing.

gram's skate ornament how to @ Not Quite Vintage
I love this, mostly because I remember a tiny pair that my mom had made when she was young (if I remember right.) They were so cute - I loved the paperclips for blades.

"Coffee" by Christoph Niemann @ The New York Times
A visual editorial...hysterical and so true.

proof of insanity a.k.a. my Christmas cards @ cheekie magpie
These are so impressive. I had full intentions of making our cards, but in the interest of my mental health, I decided to postpone until next year (maybe.) What can I say? I'm a very busy and important woman. (ha)

Salvaged drawers = modular bookcase @ Craftynest
I think salvaged drawers are highly unappreciated for their potential.

DIY: MAKING SWEETS SWEETER @ Once Wed
Cute packaging ideas.

Glittery Newspaper Tree @ Bella Dia
Fun idea - I love Christmas tree crafts!

FilzFelt
New felt store - I want it all. I LOVE FELT.

How to Make a Manly Catchall @ Craftstylish
Not that it necessarily has to be "manly" but I can certainly appreciate how this is a craft Nathan would like and use. Especially in Dukes of Hazzard fabric...wonder if they make such a thing?

Last-minute gift idea - Sunglasses/spectacle case @ You SEW Girl
I like this - it really is a good gift idea.

Chocolate Dipped Candy Canes @ Make and Takes
I LOVE how they packaged it all up with some  cocoa mix in a little baggie. That is one of those things that you see and think - "Why didn't I think of that?!" SO CUTE.

Quilled Snowflake Ornament @ reese dixon
I made some quilled stuff for Christmas a few years ago! My mom still has a little Christmas tree that I did for her. It's fun - I might try this. I love it all glittered up.

Espejitos (small mirrors in Spanish) @ Gingerbread Snowflakes
These are really neat. I would make them just to hang in my house, not even just for the Christmas tree - although I'm sure they'd be beautiful with the lights.

  2. You've really outdone yourself this time!

    My favorite links are the free downloadable animals (thinking of making something vintage with them), pop-up books (thinking of making my nephew a card using the free how-to tutorial), and quilled snowflake is just oh-so inspiring (yet another scrapbooking tool that I need to buy).
