just add water

I loved the "just add water" paint books when I was little. I saw this idea and it brought me back. Can't wait to put some of these together for my girls. Check it out at Giver's Log.

easter candy jars

What a fun way to present some candy to the kids on Easter morning. I know my girls would be so excited seeing the Easter Bunny's handy work :) Check it out at Blonde Designs.

quick little bunny

How sweet is this little guy. I love it. Check it out at elise marley.

chocolate birds nest

Don't these little nests bring back memories of childhood. I know I made these on many a Easter. I was especially happy with this recipe because it had no peanut butter (daughter is allergic). Check them out at Mustard Seeds.

birdhouse wall

I just about died when I saw this birdhouse wall. What a great statement piece and hello my little girls room already has a bird theme in it...this would be perfect. Check out a tutorial at Caitlin Creer Interiors.

little people

These would be perfect to add to my daughters collection of figurine toys. She plays with little figurines for hours and would love any new additions. Especially some that were made by mommy. Check them out at Shannon Makes Stuff.

sticker book

What a great idea to keep that love of sticking the stickers alive :) Check it out at Samster Mommy.

sock monster

I really want to make one of these and have it sit so nicely on the shelf in my daughters room. Then I will need to make one that can sit so nicely cuddled in her little arms. Check it out at Monster-Munch.

cotton candy cone

We used her Thanksgiving treat idea for my daughters preschool class and you can bet that those little kiddies will see some of these as well. Check out these cute cones at La*T*Da.

button bouquet

We moved the girls little table into the family room so it was necessary that they have a fun little centerpiece that matched the colors of the rest of the room. Yes, I said necessary :) We decided on these fun little button bouquets. Even better, my oldest was able to help with the construction. I found a great tutorial at Whimsy Love.

And since we are on the topic of buttons. How yummy do these look? I love shortbread! They make me think of my babies, because when I was in the hospital recovering I survived on a pure shortbread (Lorna Doone) diet. Check out the recipe at Creature Comforts.

Velcro Ball Catch

I saw this project on Dollar Store Crafts and knew that my boys would love it. Since the weather here has been a little crazy we have been couped up in the house finding things to keep us busy. This is an inexpensive project/game that will do the trick. Check here for a list of supplies and a how-to.

pinwheel jello

First I saw these adorable pinwheels and fell in love. Check them out at Style Me Pretty.

Then I saw these pinwheel jello jigglers. Find them at la * T * da.

My daughters preschool class better watch out because I think their little bellies are about to be filled with jello.

bunting roll

Not only perfect for crayons, but this could also be helpful in organizing my make-up brushes. Check out the tutorial at Say Yes to Hoboken.

mustache glass

These are great! When I saw them I thought of my sweet girl HERE, she would love these. Check them out at Alaska Crafter.

mason jar lantern

These just make me happy and think of fireflies and hanging out on the porch looking at the stars. I want to make some just so I can always think about those things and be happy. Check them out Chez Beeper Bebe ( I must like her stuff because I just featured her the other day as well).

...and Amy Bakes Cupcakes.

counting bean bags

Perfect way to help little kids learn their numbers and older kids to learn math. Not to mention the bright colors are so much fun. Check it out at Chez Beeper Bebe.
